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

Starting Over
There are events in our lives that make it feel as though we are having to start over. This could be anything from a fitness journey, a failed marriage, a new job, taking a course again, or even just picking up an old hobby again. Honestly, the list could go on for days.

Finding Peace in Pain: Trusting God Through Struggles
As I mentioned, I am emerging from a season that required me to pause and heal. Throughout this season, there were a few times when I opened this page to write, but I couldn't bring myself to publish it just yet. This post was mostly written in the middle of my pain. I opened the … Continue reading Finding Peace in Pain: Trusting God Through Struggles
I had no idea
I am sitting here completely quiet and for the first time in a LONG time, my mind is at peace. 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

I asked these questions in hopes to guide him through the spiritual (unseen) side of the real world … Continue reading Something Invisible

You are Beautiful
I woke up this morning to the unexpected scene of fluffy snow falling down. So, I did what I do every snow day, I made my morning coffee, and sat by the window to watch! As I am admiring each flake, I started thinking about how beautiful God's creation is! The snow, the ocean, the … Continue reading You are Beautiful

Liiiiiiiiiisten Linda...... when you are going through a SEASON of doubt, unanswered prayers, confusion, and questions..... it is so hard to hear someone say... "have you prayed?" "have you sought God?" "what are you going to do?" all of these are usually asked out of good intentions, however.... when you are going THROUGH something, it … Continue reading What seems impossible should become purposeful
