I’m Sick and that’s a good thing?

I have discovered something new about college life. When your roommate is sick, you might as well go out and buy some meds because it’s only a matter of time before you’re doing homework in your pajamas surrounded by a pile of Kleenex. Now, each of the four of...

Finding my Wings

Lately I have been having some pretty tough days. I’ve been super stressed and pulled to my limits, but tonight something super duper awesome happened. At the college I attend, we have a non-denominational mid-week service in the chapel on campus, and it’s a ton of fun. There are...

Stress, Sarcasm, and Saying “I’m Sorry”

I’m one week in to this year long challenge and I’ve go to be honest: I am exhausted. Like, there is soo much work to get done ALL. OF. THE. TIME! I haven’t even had time for friends lately and I feel terrible, but I have so much I...

Lessons from Habits

You know what’s so weird about life? Habits. Like, bad habits are so hard to quit that we have rehab centers and  therapists that work with people for months or years to help them overcome bad habits. On the other hand, good habits are so hard to keep that...

My Rooster Crowed

I’m super excited about this journey because it’s giving me the opportunity to grow at such an accelerated rate. I get to “learn at my own pace” which means that as soon as I get the lesson down and pass the tests I move on to the next lesson....

Thank God for Smartphones

So I’m writing this blog at 23:20 because I haven’t had the chance to write anything all day. I’m also writing it on my phone because I’ve been on a walk for the past several hours and haven’t had the chance to access a computer. So, yeah. That’s my...

Closet Christian

Lately, I have been very focused on building up my confidence in myself, my abilities, and who I am in Christ, but to be honest, I’m not quite the unashamed Christian that I once was. See, I used to be this totally on fire Christian teen who was always...

Before War Room

So I’m writing this as I’m sitting in the theater with my grandma to watch “War Room”. I’ve gotta go but more to come after! I’m excited to see how this turns out. I have high hopes and I’m excited to see God move through this film! *Preparing self...

Losing Confidence and Superman T-Shirts

I am super tired as I’m writing this. It has been a super duper long day and I’m just now getting to the blog because I’m just now getting a little bit of down time. Granted, I’ve always been busy but today has been ridiculous!! Do you ever have...

But to where, exactly?

Today is day 2 in my year long journey. “To where?”, you ask. Well, I have no idea what my end goal is from this journey, but I’m reminded of the quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson: “Life is a journey, not a destination.” That’s so true for me in...
