A Step of Faith

One of my goals for this New Year is to seek out vulnerability and so in the spirit of vulnerability, here we go! I didn’t post any blogs last year. It wasn’t because I needed a break, or I stopped writing. It’s because I suddenly cared what other people thought of me. I was nervous…

Slovenia & Croatia

Day One Well, I was told we were leaving close to 7 this morning and it ended up being more like 8:30/9. But, our 7-hour drive to Slovenia went well! We drove through Austria, so I saw Vienna from the interstate. Definitely not the same as going, so that just means I’ll have to go…

Israel

Day One This morning we took a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. It was absolutely breathtaking, and to think of how much of Jesus’ ministry was done around it/on it. It sadly was not what I was expecting. I was expecting a time of peace and reflection. Instead, it was loud music, dancing,…

Jordan

This marks the beginning of my travels. I am sitting in the Dulles Airport waiting for my flight to Jordan. It feels surreal. I was nervous when I got to the Nashville Airport, and I teared up when I hugged my dad goodbye. It kind of felt the same as going off to college. I…

The Past Few Months: My Testimony

This post is going to be a little different than my others. Instead of talking about what God is teaching me, I am going to tell you all what He has done in my life the past few months. I debated on typing this up and posting it, because I do not want it to…

Get Out of the Waiting Room

This post has been a long time coming. God has put it on my heart since January and I finally gave Him enough time to show me what He meant. This post is a follow up to the one before it, so go read Lack of Faith in a Hard Season! I mentioned comparison in…

Lack of Faith in a Hard Season

The story of Lazarus has been everywhere for me the past couple weeks. You’d think I was exaggerating by saying I’ve heard it at least 10 times the past month…I’m not exaggerating. So, I figured I should probably go read it for myself and see what God was trying to get me to understand. I’ll…

The Dwelling Place

A couple of mornings ago, I was reading in Haggai and the Lord gave me something so good to share! I recommend reading Haggai 1:2-11 but here is a little summary. Basically, Haggai was a minor prophet who went to Judah and talked about how the people were saying it was not the right time…

The Lies of a Waiting Period

Lately, I have been coming to terms that I am in a waiting period. A not-so-fun, very frustrating waiting period. It is hard to wait for something that you want so badly. Like a child with the Christmas present at the top of their list, the daily desire for coffee when you are struggling to…

A Word for the Doubting Mind

On June 24th there was a really cool celestial event where 4 planets (Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) and the moon all lined up in the correct order. You could see it best at 45 minutes before sunrise and I was determined to see it. Here is what I wrote upon observing this beautiful scene:…
