– -Oswald Chambers (Oz) (In other words, Sanctification is a word of action; a daily surrender. It is a continual process of until the day of Jesus’ return; a process that grows us closer to our Lord. Die to self. My prayer.)

One of my favorites memories is when I was in college. I had just finished up my freshman year and was home for the summer… One important thing to know…I love to dance. I did ballet for many, many years and put my parents through so many Nutcracker performances that they probably cringe when they hear Tchaikovsky. In high school, my friends and I would go swing dancing and in...

This picture brought back sweet memories from my childhood.  It is very similar to the swing that hung from the branch of an old oak in the backyard of my sunny, Floridian childhood home. My grandfather made and hung it for my 5th birthday. What simple joy I got from that combination of a piece of wood and ropes. The wind blowing through my hair, tickling me and causing little girl laughter. I...

Take those the beginning of January, hopefully…waiting to get the letter with dates to sign up for.  I finished up my first 6 weeks of training for the Piedmont Women’s Center and have...

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20 I have such a yearning in me to go and serve God. It’s scary really. Let me share a story with you. It’s about...

This is my 109th post!! I’m proud (and surprised) that I was able to (semi-)consistenly keep up with the blog. It has been a fun way to share things and an outlet when I feel like expressing my thoughts and opinions. I haven’t had as much time to write as I would’ve wanted or planned to, but, hey, 109 posts is pretty good and it’s not even the end of the year yet! So...

Where has this month gone?? It is already October 28th!!! It has been such a busy month…but filled with fun things as well. Like yesterday was one of my most favoritest people’s birthday :) Crazy to believe, but the high for today is supposed to be 56 degrees…where did the high 70’s weather that we had yesterday go?? I suppose it means it is almost time to say goodbye...

It seems like yesterday I was saying that I can’t believe its October! And now we are nearly halfway through the month and it’s hard to believe that Halloween, Thanksgiving, graduation, and Christmas are right around the corner. Time is sure flying by! It’s been a busy month for me, obviously since I haven’t had time to post anything lately, but it’s been a very good month too! One piece of news...

The Resistance by Josh Garrels I was born into a system constructed for failure It’s a sinking ship manned by drunken sailors An escape artist behind the bars of a jailor An asthmatic attack when we forgot the inhaler If the shoe doesn’t fit what good is a tailor In the midst of a crisis please cancel the gala Without a symphony there’s no need for a prelude To foreshadow what’s to come.
