This morning, I found myself reflecting on a situation that was pretty impactful in my life. While looking back, the age-old statement "hindsight is 20/20" came to mind. Isn't it interesting how often we reflect and think: If I had only known then, what I know now? Growth should feel this way; we should be … Continue reading Grace Over Guilt: The Hidden Side of Growth
What’s Awakening in Me Right Now
I can not believe how quickly time has progressed since my divorce. Every day I wake up, take a breath, and I remain thankful for the right here, right now moment. I wake up each day living in something I hadn't planned on. I'd be naive not to admit that divorce is difficult; it's even … Continue reading What’s Awakening in Me Right Now
The weighty why
When I sit down to write, I often times have no agenda. I sit down, put my fingers on the keyboard, pause, take a deep breath, attempt to clear my thoughts, and eventually something comes out. I typically do a lot of deleting and sometimes I end up with a draft that I don't post … Continue reading The weighty why
Starting Over

I opened the … Continue reading Finding Peace in Pain: Trusting God Through Struggles

I want to talk about something that gets what I call “the lemon juice face” when spoken about within the Christian community…. Mental Health. If you were able to read my previous blog, I spoke … Continue reading I had no idea
Something Invisible
Last night my youngest son clung to me in fear saying mommy… there’s something invisible in here. I said baby, I can’t see anything, if you see it… is it scary? Or does it make you happy? I asked these questions in hopes to guide him through the spiritual (unseen) side of the real world … Continue reading Something Invisible
Pause and Reflect
Hello Giants! I had a thought that hit me pretty hard today, and I was encouraged so much that I wanted to share it with you guys as well! Often times we hear the verbiage: "Child-like Faith". I tend to associate this with believing that ANYTHING is possible, that as adults, we should trust God … Continue reading Pause and Reflect

Pray, then trust
I was having a conversation with my children last night, they often ask profound questions when I say "okay guys, it's bedtime", because they want to prolong bedtime lol. However, I don't mind because they are still learning and I usually take away some great advice from our conversation! This one I felt I could … Continue reading Pray, then trust
