What do you do when life seems overwhelming and the tasks are piling up to a point where you just don't think you could ever get it all done? I usually revert to my automatic response of shutting down and avoiding the thing all together. This is not a very productive response, however it is … Continue reading Response in the Overwhelmed
The Prediction Forecast
I'm sitting down to write this morning and I can't help but be so filled with thankfulness for the recent bout of sunshine and warmer weather we have been having here in NH. The Winter here was long and harsh this year and it seemed it might never end (insert dramatic music dun, dun dun!). … Continue reading The Prediction Forecast
Greetings
In small group we have been studying the book of Romans. As part of the discussion this week the question was posed "What would others say of you and your character?". We were reflecting on Romans chapter 16, which is Pauls conclusion of his letter to the church of Rome. He begins the end of … Continue reading Greetings
Transparent Parenting
1 Peter 5:2-3 "Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock."

Easter and Injustice
Here we are on Good Friday. There isn't a whole lot of good about it other than we know that our Savior rose again. The events that happened on this day so long ago needed to occur into order for us to be set free from our sin. A man who knew no sin was … Continue reading Easter and Injustice

Take … Continue reading Recovering Trust
When your best just isn’t good enough.
There are times in life where our best just isn't good enough to meet a standard. I think immediately of taking a test in school for example. You study, you rehearse the material, you complete the homework, and you feel prepared. You do the best you can to retain the information given and then you … Continue reading When your best just isn’t good enough.
Guest Post – Coffee with Jesus Time for total transparency
Coffee with Jesus Time for total transparency. My walk with God has turned into a hard one. I kept hammering myself with the word obedience. My time with God was scattered and based off of a sense of obligation. I was feeling frustrated, angry, and hurt and placing those feelings on other things or people … Continue reading Guest Post – Coffee with Jesus Time for total transparency
“Living life for the Lord, one day at a time.”
Several years ago I changed the tag line on my personal Facebook page to read "Living life for the Lord, one day at a time.". I don't quite remember when Facebook made the update to allow us to have a tag line, or personal bio snapshot, but this is what I landed on when I … Continue reading “Living life for the Lord, one day at a time.”
Job 19
I'm working through the book of Job again. The last time I went through this book in it's entirety was just about two years ago. Ironically enough, just after I read through it my entire life shifted into an upside down chaotic mess. I was really thankful to have just read through the life of … Continue reading Job 19
