Just a little over a week ago, I went on a road trip to Kansas City. That’s 12 hours – just in case anybody was wondering. Jennifer, Alise and I worked our butts off raising funds to get us there. We had two yard sales and a bake sale, all thanks to the help of [...]

Obamanation. Change we can believe in? Really?
Posted in Uncategorized on November 4, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
It’s Election Day night at about ten o’clock, and it has been a LONG night already, indeed. If I sound a bit bitter in this blog, it’s because I am. For the time that I have been following the election and campaining against Obama, I have seen countless articles, online comments, and news media by people who support [...]
Nothing Compares to Loving You…

I’ve been thinking lately. I don’t just want to be known as a girl who loves the Lord. There are SO many girls who love the Lord… and I don’t mean that to sound like a bad thing, but the truth is, a lot of people live their lives loving the Lord, but few people [...]
A Message to Someone with a Broken Heart

As I sit down to write this, my heart is aching. It’s hard to know how to begin. I want the effect of my words to show the heaviness of my heart.
A friend and neighbor, Brandon Koch, died in a terrible car accident yesterday morning. I didn’t know him beyond simple, polite conversation or [...]
God is in the Midst of my Weird Days, too

What a day this has been… it sure started off on the wrong leg. I got in my car at 6:35 a.m., put the key in the ignition, turned it, and – it gave a pitiful little beep and then nothing. I tried a few more times; I dunno what I was expecting exactly, it [...]
Eye Trouble?

The past couple of days have been really fun… well, for the most part anyway. Yesterday, my mom, stepdad, and I helped my little sister get settled into the room of the house she’s renting in Atlanta. She’s sharing the house with two other girls, and she’s so excited. I’m happy for her; I know [...]
It’s Fall!

I’m really enjoying the cooler temperatures this year. Normally, when summer comes to an end, I always get emotional. I’ll mourn for about a week – especially when time changes and it gets dark so early! I’ve always loved the summer months the best. But this year is different for some reason… I’m actually looking [...]
This is Not for Quitters.

So I just finished reading The Shack by William P. Young, and I just have to say that it really was the best book I’ve ever read in my life. Everyone needs to read it – it has completely changed my perception of the way God works in my life. I absolutely recommend it to [...]

Today was nice. My family is gone for the weekend, so I have had some time to simply take a break. After curling up on the couch for awhile with Jon and Kate plus Eight (a television show I like), I was able to take some time to reflect on what the Lord is doing [...]
It’s All Yours, God

“It’s all Yours, God.”
It’s the phrase that has been running through my head and my heart all day today. It started when I got to work this morning and turned on the radio to hear the song “Yours” by Steven Curtis Chapman. And since then I have been singing “it’s all Yours, God.” Everything belongs [...]
