Blurry to Clear: Seeing with New Eyes
Read more: Blurry to Clear: Seeing with New EyesFive years ago, I did something that changed my life—I had LASIK surgery. After nearly 30 years of blurry mornings and fumbling for glasses, I could finally open my eyes and see. Clearly. Instantly. It was glorious. At my last eye check-up, just for fun, my doctor looked back at my old prescription. My vision…

Fear Can’t Stop Me: Living with Godfidence
Read more: Fear Can’t Stop Me: Living with GodfidenceFear has a way of creeping in quietly and quickly if we’re not careful. I can’t count the number of times I’ve heard unsettling news or had a worrisome thought cross my mind, and all I could do was whisper, ‘God, I’m scared.’” And you know what? God can take that. He wants us to…

Goats VS Sheep
Read more: Goats VS SheepLast week we had a guest speaker at my church and he mentioned on how we do not want to be a goat. Now, I knew the context he was going for, however, maybe being a gymnast mom made me pause because my mind immediately thought of Simone Biles who is generally called a goat.…

We need each other
Read more: We need each otherHave you ever asked someone for help, only to find they didn’t follow through—or didn’t do it the way you hoped? So you just do it yourself. And over time, that “I’ll just handle it” mindset becomes a habit. You stop asking. You start carrying more than you were meant to. Maybe that’s not your…

Celebrating a death?
Read more: Celebrating a death?As I’m sure most of you had heard, Charlie Kirk, renowned conservative activist, was killed. Assassinated would be the more appropriate word for it. This man was very outspoken about his faith and his beliefs and was incredibly good at debating others that disagreed with him in a respectful way. He didn’t want to degrade…

Unanswered Prayers
Read more: Unanswered PrayersPrayer is communication with God. It’s also putting your petitions before Him. But what do we do when those requests go unanswered? It can be disheartening, sometimes feel futile, when praying for something over and over doesn’t get the answer we were hoping for. I have been praying for something for a long time. And…

Worry Warts and Pillars of Salt
Read more: Worry Warts and Pillars of SaltIt would be stupid of me to ask if you worry about anything. If there’s anything that you get concerned about or causes you to loose sleep at night. That would be dumb of me to ask because I know everyone, at one time or another, is guilty of having worry in their life. My…

The Masks We Wear
Read more: The Masks We WearI’m sure all of us can remember growing up and, more often around Halloween, putting on a costume with a mask. Superheroes or a fairy princess or maybe even something more sinister. Or maybe you were like me and your class did an art project when you were in 5th grade where you created a…

Blotted out?
Read more: Blotted out?When I was about 7 years old, with my mom beside me on my bunk bed, I gave my life to Christ. I asked Jesus to come into my heart and forgive me of my sins. Seems good, right? Everything should be great going forward, right? Not so much. Life definitely gives twists and turns…

Dead to Life
Read more: Dead to LifeThe temperatures are starting to cool down (most days anyway). The leaves are changing. Milky Way is closing for the season – which means no more delicious ice cream. Pumpkins are showing up EVERYWHERE. What could this mean? Summer is over and….. And I don’t like it. Listen, I’m a beach girl. I like the…
