Perhaps it's because I'm an over thinker and an INFJ, but I am constantly looking to grow, to change my thinking, and to become more of who I was made to be. In this continual process, God keeps bringing to my attention the rights that I carry because of the power I posses through Him. … Continue reading When Freedom Isn’t Free

Perversion and Lust
Catchy title, eh? I figured it would raise curiosity because...well...sex sells. However, this blog post is about more than it appears. What is the first thing you think of when you hear the word "lust"? A lot of us instinctively think about it in a sexual sense. I know that was normal for me. … Continue reading Perversion and Lust
Correction is something all of us need but few of us can tolerate. I admit, I'm one of those people that don't like to be proven wrong. It's a work in progress and something the Holy Spirit has been dealing with me about. Recently, I was lamenting about the areas in my life that are … Continue reading
Yesterday was Easter Sunday. We had a really good message at church that actually built up to answer some questions I was asking God about just a few months ago. It seems everywhere I look, the subject of my true identity is right in my face. I have spent my whole life living based on … Continue reading
The Vapor Between the Dashes
It's been eight years today that my world came crashing down on me. I can't tell you how many dozens of times today I have already counted and recounted on my fingers to make sure that "8" really is the magic number. I've never been that great at math, so I keep doubting myself, but … Continue reading The Vapor Between the Dashes
Unkindness and Reacting to Life
We are living in a culture of unkindness. While people are preaching and screaming and shouting to be nice and to be kind, in the same breath they personally attack and berate anyone who isn't like them or doesn't think like them. I love technology and I am undoubtedly addicted to social media, but it's … Continue reading Unkindness and Reacting to Life
Those Are All My Emotions, But Not My Will
It may not be news to most of you, but I am learning that our emotions and our will are two completely different things. I guess it's something I have always known, but never really thought about or delved in to before. This morning I was reading my morning devotion (which I need to be more devoted … Continue reading Those Are All My Emotions, But Not My Will
The Mystery of the Coffee Creamer Bandit
I love coffee. I heart coffee. I have deep, profound feelings for coffee. I love the warmth and robustness of it. The flavor. The smell. I'm so glad I no longer need it to get through my day and I can love and appreciate it for other reasons instead of a crutch (thank you suppliments … Continue reading The Mystery of the Coffee Creamer Bandit
Not Giving in to Fear
I am a part of a network marketing company (keep reading, I'm not going to try and sell you anything. That's not how I roll.) that has completely changed my life in several ways. I back up and believe in the products 100%, the compensation plan is unheard of, the integrity of the company is … Continue reading Not Giving in to Fear
Spiritually Hoarding
I had plans to clean the house today. Really, I did. There's a little bit of a funky smell coming from the kitchen, there's a pile of school work on the coffee table that needs to be thrown away, the cats have jumped in the window sills and knocked everything off on to the floor, … Continue reading Spiritually Hoarding
