Being a disciple must have been the greatest thing on Earth! To follow Jesus. To be chosen to walk around and be known as a follower of the Christ. Go with Him everywhere, see His miracles, hear His teachings, and be front and center in the action! They even got to walk in His power [...]

In disgust.
Sometimes I wonder what I am doing. I attend a few church services a week. Enough to feel ok about myself and my life. Even lately, I haven’t been going to church as much as I used to, or even as much as I should. We’ve heard it for years. The whole analogy, just because you [...]

it troubles me..
I am very troubled in my spirit. I think we can all agree that music is powerful. We can hear a song with a catchy tune and be humming it for days. We can sing lyrics that if we really think about it, they make no sense. But it sticks. We as humans were made [...]

free will. blessing or curse?
Sometimes I think it isn’t fair to have a free will. It’s like it’s almost punishment. I would rather be made to do something than have the option to make the wrong decision. The idea that path of my life and the direction it takes is scarey. One thing I am learning though is when [...]

The waves are crashing.
I feel completely jaded. Carried away with the waves and washed up on shore. Over and over again.

Trying to resist the natural currents pushing them [...]

I laugh in the face of emotions!
Everything was going wrong. I woke up late. I scurried to the bathroom and stumbled into the shower. I scribbled my makeup on and ratted my hair. I slapped some toothpaste on my teeth and jerked a bottle of water out of the fridge. I ran down the stairs frantically to make it to work on [...]

What we desire.
To let something die means to cut off it’s life. Not to bring it back. When there are things in your life that you need to get rid of, like what I discussed previously, then you just have to let it die. There is nothing but consequences in bringing them back to life.
The other day [...]

I want, I need, so I ask.
I was shopping after work yesterday and was extremely bummed that I couldn’t find anything cute, cheap, and something that fit. What is this world coming to!!! I was walking down an aisle in between the skirts and the half a piece of fabric they call shirts, when i heard it. A mother speaking very [...]

Leave it in the past.
You can’t help but wonder sometimes where you might be if you had made some different decisions in the past. One simple decision that you think nothing of can change the whole course of your life. Who would have thought a job that I took 3 years ago, and quit 2 years ago would still [...]

Your strength, or His?
There is another part to what God spoke to me the other night. There is a place in Him where you don’t have to feel beaten up and condemned for your failures and your mess ups. We all do stupid things everyday. Some of us have our outgoing image or our happy face that we [...]
