Looking back at the path the Lord has led me on, I have at times felt conflicted. I remember when he first started calling and developing me for ministry, I was very confused.

Defense Becomes the Offense
A little over three weeks ago, I twisted my ankle pretty severely moving. The timing was horrible. I was moving from a third floor apartment and I had finally gotten into a consistent workout routine. I had also just completed my fastest 2 mile run and was really excited about continuing my running plan thatContinue reading “Defense Becomes the Offense”

Above is a selfie of myselfContinue reading “Winning Vs. Victory”
Not What I Pictured
In 2011, I took a similar picture on this porch with my husband. We were celebrating our first Thanksgiving in our new house. It was almost a dream come true. It was almost what I had always pictured. I thought the goal in life was to be happily married, have good jobs, and buyContinue reading “Not What I Pictured”
