Don’t Stop. Do Wait.
About two months ago I wrote about a spiritual mountain I didn't want to climb. I explained that the mountain would require me to exercise more faith in God and His ways than ever before. I also shared that more faith required me to exchange more of my selfish, stubborn wants and ways for His… Continue reading Don’t Stop. Do Wait.

Relentless Self-Discipline
I’ve been told for the better half of my life that I have a lot of “self-discipline.” And while I’ve always attributed it to my father’s example in my life, in this moment I’m realizing something new... You see I believe that in order to be self-disciplined you have to have something in you that… Continue reading Relentless Self-Discipline
Figure or Follow?
Living from a place where I don’t try to figure it all out... What a way of life! That’s where I feel like I need to be right now.
