waiting
“it was a dark and stormy night”
…it was a dark and stormy night…” It was a dark and foggy night in my case (thankfully no rain…I needed new wipers…last week!)….I was driving home at midnight-thirty from a birthday dinner 25 minutes away. As I head down the freeway I notice spots of fog, literally spots, and confirmed that indeed it was [...]
29
twenty-nine twenty-nine years. i can hardly believe it myself. i’m certainly not ready to be 29. i feel as if i’m putting my brakes on…as if to say…WAIT!!! life hasn’t gone the way i thought it would these past ten years. ten years ago i started college in the usa after spending the previous 5 [...]
dreaming…part 2
I shared with you what Justin’s been teaching us at Co+op lately… God has called me to tell a story WITH my life rather than just the story of my life. I want so bad to do this. . . to step into the next season…to be moving forward…to be serving…living … abundantly … flourishing [...]
Necessary Endings
This particular journey began a little over one year ago, exploring Campus Crusade, interviewing, and attending a couple end of year conferences. I went through the very long and thorough application process. I attended our New Staff Training in Fort Collins, CO and had a most wonderful time on the worship team, taking Bible Classes [...]
Be a Quitter
(My Catalyst West fellow volunteer, Kaleena, she’s a 3 year veteran, and I met her last year, with the very funny Jon Acuff. And yes, I stole this from her…but I’m pretty sure I was the picture taker…so…I’m taking the picture. haha) My notes from the Catalyst West Lab of JON ACUFF, author of the wildly [...]

be still
watched this movie tonight. and this line resonated so deeply. may this be a reminder if you are in a season of waiting. this is no kung foolery. ‘Be still’ is a very biblical truth. (Be still and know that I am God (Psalm 46:10) I believe there is truth in this statement: “Being still [...]
waiting
When you’re waiting, you’re NOT doing nothing. You’re doing the most important something there is. You’re allowing your soul to grow up. If you can’t be still and wait, … … … you can’t become what God created you to be. from Relevant Magazine.
Timeout
I sorta feel like the kid who is placed in time-out but the parent loses track of time, and the kid waits anxiously to be done. I know it’s not the case but sometimes it’s how I feel. I’m ready to be done with this time out and ready to get back out there and [...]
introspective part one.
i’m not eloquent. i don’t write because people enjoy reading what i write. i write because it’s therapeutic. it’s how i think, how i process what’s going on internally, and in my relationships and feelings and everything. I also find sitting at a piano and doodling or watercolor therapeutic, although piano and writing tend to [...]
