Smeet Smite Smote

Have you ever tried to read through the book of Obadiah? It’s pretty much a big old “you’re screwed” letter to the Edomites, who were some evil dudes that picked on the God’s people. It’s not comforting. Obadiah, the deliverer of this “you can run, but you can’t hide” message, was also a bit long…

Coming Soon..

Some thoughts I jotted down in my journal: Blog Ideas “Making no decision is a decision in itself.” ” The Christmas I received an Aretha Franklin ‘Greatest Hits’ CD and a bag of potpourri and I cried because no one knew me.” “If all else fails I can get a job as a Rachel Dolezal…

May I Ask Who’s Calling?

Reverend Angela. Pastor Ang. Father Angela. Just trying some different titles out here. I sat talking with my parents, trying to enjoy a nice hummus wrap at The Hill Cafe this evening. I was telling them about the 4-hour long Life -Coaching Webinar I participated in yesterday, and how much I enjoyed getting to learn…

As I Lay Dying

One thought came to me as I lay in the fetal position on my couch yesterday afternoon, sick as a dog (why is that a saying?). My roommate had just suggested that I might want to wean myself off of coffee slowly. I hadn’t had caffeine in two days, and I had such a killer…

The Fast and the Furious

Today was Day One of my 21- Day Daniel Fast. I have been trying hard to eat healthy all year. Each time I start strong but then, for some reason or another, I lose momentum instead of weight. I need a drastic change. I need rigid guidelines. I need a pizza. Ok, so: The Daniel…

Don’t believe me just watch

Who wants to be on my step team??? Ok, fine. As much as I would win as a stepper, that’s not the kind of team I’m talking about. I am referring to taking steps towards our goals! This morning I laced up my sneaks and walked over to a nearby (but far enough to count…

Open Me

Sometimes a little, ordinary sentence can change everything. It’s hard to push past the clouds of a billion different perspectives, and the multitude of voices that ring with heartfelt emotion as they reason their stand for or against one thing or another. And then..one sentence can bring truth home to take its place in our…

So, do you, like, workout?

I can carry a lot. More with my left arm than my right. This comes from years of carrying heavy plates to and from the kitchen at the restaurant I work in. It save me trips to and from the car, I guess. Being strong doesn’t come naturally. Babies can’t do jack. As you grow,…

Now what?

I am single. I am 29(ish). Most girls my age are chomping at the bit to get married, buy a house, and start pushing out babies. I, however, am perfectly content to eat Ramen noodles and have a movie marathon with friends. While I would love to fall in love and have a partner in…

Feeling Salty

Some things you should know. God does not want you to wear long jean skirts. God does not think sex is bad. God does not have a Classical music station on the radio 24/7. He switches back and forth between that and Michael W. Smith. God thought the Pilgrims’ clothes could have used a few…
