From the window of mom's new house I sit in my bed and watch the river flow as the sun rises every morning. Some days it flows left. Other days it flows right. But then there are days when it's peaceful and still, reflecting the life around it. Now, I'm not sure what the river… Continue reading Year Four

Going Down
If you've ever hiked a mountain before then you know the feeling that comes when you finally reach the top. In an instant all of the work it took to get there means nothing because you feel like you're on top of the world. And, in a lot of cases, you can see for miles… Continue reading Going Down
When It’s Finally Over
In the past few months I've heard it said at least 20 times now, "Well, hindsight is 20/20." And though I do believe that statement is true, I've grown to love the confusion and uncertainty built into life. Now, don't get me wrong... I don't like to be confused and uncertain; however, without the confusion… Continue reading When It’s Finally Over
Another Leap
Another leap of faith with God is verbally in the books... From my mouth, to His ears... I'm gonna follow what seems crazy and strange again. Because I've chosen to leave doubt and fear right where they're at. And well... This leap means so much to me on so many levels of life. Mainly? Well… Continue reading Another Leap
Doubtful Focus
It's funny.. The Lord has never failed me in what He's spoken to my heart, yet I still doubt what He says is to come. You see He has a pretty good track record of being right. Actually He's never wrong. He's always 100% correct when telling me what's to come. So why do I… Continue reading Doubtful Focus
This is the Day!
"This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24 Growing up, I continuously heard my grandmother sing Psalm 118:24. We could be anywhere, doing practically anything and she'd freely breakout this phrase for anyone that was listening to hear. To me... To me these words didn't… Continue reading This is the Day!
When the Darkness Ends
Four years have passed. Four years have passed and the view of my life has drastically changed. I've drastically changed. To say I'm the same person I was when dad got sick and died would be a lie because life and death have altered my experience on Earth. You see in four extremely short years… Continue reading When the Darkness Ends
Downfall of Me
Forward doesn't seem as scary as it used to. You see forward with the Holy Spirit used to cause great fear, anxiety and worry inside of me because I constantly looked around at the lives of others and how I didn't match up. I was obsessed with the reality that I wasn't getting what I… Continue reading Downfall of Me
Victorious Life
Growing up I spent a lot of time with my grandmother. Being in full-time ministry, I continuously heard her speak to people about living a victorious life through Christ. She always spoke about the trial and tribulation we go through in life, but how He brings us through and causes us to be victorious through… Continue reading Victorious Life
She Swings a Sword
Have you ever willingly walked into a season of life before unaware of what's ahead? Knowing deep in your heart it's the best thing you can choose to do, but then also hating the fact that you have to set aside your own life? That's where my life has been for a year and a… Continue reading She Swings a Sword
