a sigh of relief
after a hard day of family fighting and stressful tee ball (…?), nothing relieves my soul like my one-on-one time with God. all day today, i’ve heard references to psalm 23 so, of course, i decide to spend some time studying it. little did i know, the lyrics to one of my favorite christian songs are embedded in david’s psalm. these words really mean a lot to me with everything...

oh goodness...
this tee-ball job is stressful! i had my second game today with a team that loved to argue calls, cuss at their players, and bad mouth the umps at any chance they got. i was literally having a panic attack in the outfield. i know for sure i called some bad calls, but i was so extremely stressed out by the entire situation. its fricken tee-ball…the kids are 9…everybody calm down and...

appreciating the little things

my future spiritual leader
at this point in life, i’ve already experienced love…and heartbreak…but it was with a non-Christian. the thing i look forward to the most in my future endeavors is finding a man (“mature and complete not lacking anything” james 1:4) with a passion for Christ. i want to fall in love, in Christ. i need a man who wants to guard my purity and my heart. i want a man who...

Hey Lee!
So, let’s get to the point. 1 Timothy 2:11-15. I’ve asked all of my youth leaders about this passage and what do they give me? Nothin’. They tell me that it’s out of context, but refuse to elaborate. I love my youth leaders but whenever I ask them…
