I was just thinking about affairs. No, I’m not having an extra marital affair nor is my husband having one and I’m not considering taking one up…I’m just thinking, there’s a lot about affairs that people don’t understand. They’re common and they’re hurtful and they’re killing marriages and families…yet they keep happening. Why do peopleContinue reading “Marriage and Affairs”

Sometimes, I just don’t know what I’m going to say. I feel the need to share something on my heart, but I don’t even know what it is yet. God is doing some things in my life and its shaking me up. I don’t know where we’re going or what we’re doing, but He does.Continue reading “Don’t Know Where We’re Going, but We’re Going”

I haven’t been tithing long, but I am a tither (it feels so good to say that!). God really left me alone about it for a very long time, but one day, within the past year, he finally convicted me of the responsibility to Him that I was not meeting. He finally made it clearContinue reading “Tithing…Doing It Afraid”

Well, we all have our moments of relapse and this past weekend, I had mine. I’ve been so diligently working toward being a good, non-nagging, Christian wife, the kind of stuff that a real Proverbs 31 woman is made of. But sometimes, there are some projects that come about–and NO ONE wants to do them,Continue reading “A Good Piece of Advice”

I’m finding such joy in the simple things these days. I’m happy for no reason and I feel so fufilled. Sure, there are things here and there that get to me, but, overall, I don’t think I’ve ever been more content. I feel a wholeness in me that I’ve never known. God has taken thisContinue reading “Happy :)”

I’m reading a book that’s been around for quite some time. Many have read it before, but this is my first pass through. Its “The Screwtape Letters” by C.S. Lewis, and it contains fictional, but very realistic, letters from Satan to one of his head demons on how to get to a certain individual andContinue reading “The Devil is a Liar”

I’ve been working out at the gym with a personal trainer for a few months now. I half-jokingly refer to my trainer as “The Punisher,” but it’s been truly beneficial to have someone to be accountable to and someone whom I allow to push me beyond what my mind sees as my limitations. Though heContinue reading “God’s Gym”

“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill canot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that theyContinue reading “Shine On!”

Sometimes, reminiscing is so much fun. Thinking about old times you’ve shared with someone, laughing or doing wild or silly things. But, sometimes, there’s a not-so-fun memory that, at the time, you didn’t realize was so poignant…a moment in time that you don’t realize will stay with you and the person you shared it withContinue reading “Looking Back”

My husband and I just celebrated our 14-year anniversary a couple of days ago. That day caused me to pause and reflect on the life that we’ve shared together. Wow. There have been so many ups and downs. We’re scarcely shadows of the people we were standing in that flower-laiden gazeebo on that warm dayContinue reading “Reflecting on Our Marriage on Our Anniversary”
