What My 3.5-hr Haircut Taught Me
I had already had to cancel my dinner plans and my semi-damp hair was only half cut. An hour had come and gone. The only thing that was complete was a magnificent hair wash and the back of my hair trimmed. If my layers and bangs were to be next I figured I would be […]

Just Be
One of the things that I’ve realized more fully is the busy state of Americans. Anytime that I go overseas I struggle greatly upon returning because our culture is not my preference. Busyness, programs, sports, cellphones, money and a lot more all dictate our time. I promised myself that I would not succumb to it […]

Leaning In
Will you lean in? Every Sunday my favorite thing to do is pray with kids. During prayer I place my hand on their heads. If a child is new I will always ask permission first before doing this. On one particular Sunday morning as I laid my hand on one child’s head they relaxed and […]

The Unseen
Recently I was struck with a grand reality that I have realized before but it finally burried itself deep into my heart: God takes care of you when you sleep. While you sleep He is taking care of things unseen. Anything that you face He has you completely covered. We do not need to strive […]

Stand Your Ground
Lately I keep being reminded to stand my ground. Every time I cannot help but think of The Princess Bride. You know the scene I am talking about: “I am the dread pirate Roberts. There will be no survivors…” Only it sounds like, ” I am the dwread piwate woberts.” I smile every time I […]

Don’t Be Boring
I have never wanted to live a boring life. Boring is over-rated. Boring does not leave a legacy that births revivals and love. Boring changes nothing. Boring leaves stagnant waste and leaves people questioning purpose rather than living abundantly in love. I would rather live my life having given every breath to speak words of […]
