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…
Mean Muggin
I love mugs. This is one of my favorite. My mom gave it to me a few years ago. It’s from Guatemala and handcrafted by local artisans. I love the design and I was upset when my old roomie dropped it, but she saved the pieces and I was able to glue it back together….
Do the Right Thing
To err is human. To forgive is divine. The news is full of Duggars and Jenners . Honestly, I have mixed emotions about both situations. In both cases long dresses are involved. It’s hard to see past emotion and popular opinion and figure out which end is up. I think my opinion is..IT’S NONE OF…
Are you afraid the dark?
” For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ” -Ephesians 6:12 I have looked into the eyes of a demon before (I’m not even talking about my ex…
No Good Thing
Psalm 84:11 and what it means in my life. The Lord God is a sun (a source of life-giving and light) and a shield (protection from harm) The Lord bestows favor and honor (he blesses his children and helps them in answer to prayer and obedience) No good thing does he withhold from those who…
All Day, Ery Day
Picture it: 13 brothers, sharing life together, preaching about God’s forgiveness of sins and His gift of life the way God meant it to be: helping, loving, laughing, encouraging, enjoying God and each other. One night they are all eating together, as they have done countless times before. Their beloved teacher looks into the faces…
Just Do It?
Sex. The horizontal hokey pokey. Making love. Doing it. I want to take a few minutes and talk about this amazing thing I am super thankful that God created. There is, among others, one thing that convinces me that evolution (humans evolving through millions of years from single- celled organisms) is not how our…
Not Suitable for the Dinner Table
Warning: I have an opinion. Because this topic has been in the news lately (and on Facebook), let’s go there. Life is a miracle. Just because it’s hidden behind a couple inches of something doesn’t make it less precious. If I hide a kitten behind a t-shirt, and I lethally inject it through the fabric,…
Testing..1,2,3
I’ve been told many times that it’s never a good idea to ask God for patience. Somewhat along those lines, I am praying for God to develop kindness and gentleness in me, because I tend to have a temper more often than I care to admit. In the past week it seems that people…
