What ran through your heart and mind when wounded by someone close to you? If someone were to hurt you deeply, scar you even… could you turn the other cheek? In fact, what does that even mean? Today’s popular culture, many would attest the meaning of “turn the other one to him as well,” as […]

My soul hurts. There is so much evil at times; darkness is hidden in every corner. Yet, somehow we linger and struggle, continuing through this adversity. Thus, the saving prayer unraveled itself in my mind one Tuesday night long ago. Whenever you learn of the horrors of the world and know there are strangers, no, […]
One of the curious things about God is our relationship to him. There are many thoughts on this, including Matt Walsh’s salty take on the idea that our relationship with God is verbiage used to avoid accepting the sins we are unabashedly proud of, no matter the consequences. While, he does speak briefly on the […]
Growing up, one of my favorite prayers as a little girl included a traditional prayer to guardian angels. Somewhere in my closet the old picture remains, however as the picture frame centered on a little girl and a “younger female angel” it no longer connected with me. I began to associate it with prayers for […]
In the hustle of this new century, there is little time to do much of anything. Little time to be with friends. Little to no time to take care of one’s own needs. Little time to even breathe, much less pray. Trutfully, how does such a thing happen? Are we merely running in circles, or […]
On May 22, my then boyfriend, now fiancee did the most amazing thing for me. He donated upwards to $700 in my name to a charity organization called Kiva. The next day I went donated an additional $75 dollars on my own to various individuals. Now this may seem silly to you, but him giving […]
Have you ever prayed and then wondered what to do next? Or better yet, have you asked for God to give you some sort of sign, so you knew without a doubt you were on the right path? There have been times I’ve asked him to yell at me if necessary, and then I rescinded […]
Right now, I feel very overwhelmed. Truthfully I sometimes think I give away so much and there is nothing left for me; when I finally have time to do what is necessary, there is so little time left. Today, I was able to do less than an hour of necessary work. I accomplished nothing. This […]
Once 2015 ended, I noticed one of my many regrets was being unable to focus on the blog, which led to the main regret of 2015, which was my time management. I happen to always be busy, but pockets of time where I could do a lot seem to disappear quickly from me. I never […]
Dear God, Dearest Readers, Towards the end of the year I became busy and kept having to give up so much of my time for others. There have been claims that I have plenty of time, but truthfully I do not feel it as I feel depleted and sacrificial instead of revived and energized. Somewhere […]
August 22, 2015 Although this is Respect Life month, I wanted to flashback back to that date in particular, because something extraordinary happened on a very small scale, so much so I made a note of it on my blog. As I was driving I noticed two birds and one of them crashed to the […]
