If the fruits of the spirit were sarcasm, sassiness, procrastination, dad jokes, baking, and Netflix I would be the perfect Christian. Why can’t I earn gold stars by watching Gilmore Girls? I seriously want to crawl into the monitor and be Lorelai’s younger sister who moves to Stars Hollow. I could date Jess. He’s probably…
Dammit, Ginger!
I have a crush. He’s handsome. He’s warm and funny and he says sweet things to me. We have a lot in common. We get each other’s movie references. I get that little hitch in my stomach every time I see him.
This man wants to be a pastor. Um..yes, please! There’s just this little catch..
Sandwiches: A Tale of Friendship
I need you! I need you bad! You don’t know how much you mean to me. How often I thank God for you. You are a warm merlot on a cold night, and a refreshing glass of lemonade in the sweltering heat. I am apparently thirsty a lot. When I find myself lost in the…

Guard-rails, bumpers, and airbags
I’m not good at being patient. I hate waiting rooms. Long lines make me die a little inside. Slow loading time on Facebook? Ain’t nobody got time for that. I want what I want when I want it. Now would be terrific. If you are an instant gratification junkie like I am, the following eight…
Come On In!
As I pray and wait to hear from God what career exactly I should be striving towards (I’m leaning towards professional mud wrestler), I have also been envisioning how I want to live my life, no matter what that looks like. Peace, welcome, and joy are the three words I really want to define my…
