6 years old

today was the day that i decided to replace my favourite shoes. these shoes have been faithful for 6 years…they have been my go to’s for many settings…they have been my babies. the trusty shoes that i know will always work. they are the only black shoe that i will wear with [...]

a great day

this morning i woke up and was so excited that i had made it to January 28th!
why?
well cause it meant that it was going to be a day in my life that was pretty awesome…but it was more awesome than i had anticipated.
me and chad and 2 of our friends drove to Atlanta…there were several [...]

taking the plunge

I have been thinking a lot about baptism. the power and the symbol behind it. it is such a powerful things to take part in. Jesus was baptized and from there he started his ministry. why would we not follow in his footsteps?
but i also have an opinion about baptism. [...]

making right

Throughout this 3 weeks of prayer and fasting i have had some pretty heavy prayer needs. There are some things that i have been waiting on God for the answer and the words if needed.
I had this one particular friendship that was left awkward. the friends that you get really close to [...]

friends are friends forever?

the cold weather usually makes me want to drive around with the heat full blasting and the windows open and music loud…i am not sure why, but that is my perfect “thinking atmosphere” it is where i do the most thinking and get the most done in my head.
But yesterday as i was [...]

snowing in ala freakin bama

Today i am moving…well kind of. Chad and i leased an apartment yesterday….our names are on the lease. we are getting closer and closer to getting married and things that married people do are happening. it is craziness.
but yesterday the “all knowing” weather forecasters predicted snow…but we all know never [...]

crooked souls

last night i had coffee with a friend…and when i say “coffee” i mean i drank Apple Juice and she enjoyed Vanilla tea. but it is easier (and cooler) to say coffee. now that we have that established i can continue.
You know the people who you just connect with instantly, you [...]

on the altar

As some of you know from prior posts i am in the middle of a 21 day season of fasting. it is amazing how if you starve your body and mind how well you can hear God. Being a triune being, made of body, soul(mind, will and emotions) and spirit…if you let your [...]

Truthful Tuesday

As many of you know this has kind of become a wedding blog…and i have some “spiritual” blogs coming up. They are on the back burner..until later this week.
But i wanted to take a little time and blog about my emotions about the upcoming endeavors. I am scared to death. I think [...]

i am not a planner

ok folks, here is the deal. planning a wedding is stressful. it is much harder than i thought.
Here is what i have done:
i have a dress
i have a location for the ceremony and the reception
someone is helping me with finding a caterer (bigger deal than i thought)
i have some decorations for [...]

where i have been

sick, fasting, storming, cold, busy, planning a wedding, working
will be back next week…sorry.

Truthful Tuesday

for today i thought about what i least wanted to write about…and that is what you are getting. so be prepared.
as some of you know from previous posts my family is in a little discord….it has been really hard on me. i have been told by people around me that i am [...]

how short life is

This Sunday Church of the Highlands started a new series. It is called 30 Days to Live. it was a great follow up to new years with all the resolutions that people make to come to church. there were a lot of people who raised their hands to receive the LORD. [...]

each year i hear the same talk on why and how you should pre fast. how you should get your body used to not having caffeine and sugar….and each year i listen. i normally prefast starting on the 1st of January.
not this year. this year i didnt pre fast anything! [...]

man, you’re fast

January for Highlands is a different kind of month. It is one of the most amazing months in my year. it is not because things slow down after the “Christmas Rush” or because it is the month of my birthday…(even-though that is not a ”highlands” deal). i mean, those reasons are great…but it is great [...]
