Finishing Well
Today I did something I really never thought I’d do: I “retired” from running. What does that mean? Well, it really means that, for the foreseeable future, I will no longer be enrolling in races like this. The above certificate is from the Plaza 10K event in Kansas City, Missouri. This was my second time…

I Speak Jesus
This blog has been a few years in the works… since even before I had this blog. The Lord finally gave me the release to write it, so we get to see how this goes together. My brother and I grew up in a Christian household. Our parents got saved when we were both very…

You’ll Always Be…
I know I’ve talked about my bestest friend, Esther, before, and I’m sure you all remember. We started going to our church’s Bible school at the same time and sat next to each other on the first day. She forgot her Bible and was called on to read a passage. I passed her my Bible…

3AM Thoughts
Have I had 3am thoughts before? *shrugs* Either way, here we are. You know it’s funny, people say that you should live as if there’s no tomorrow. And I get it. “Live your life! Do the things you want to do! Do them now! Don’t wait.” Even Jesus said that tomorrow isn’t promised to us.…

Death, Adventures, and Birthdays
Today would be my dad’s 53rd birthday, and as I do every Sunday morning, I went to church. Since we’re still in Colorado, my best friends and I went to Legacy Church, pastored by Jeremy Pearsons. The story of how we found the church and then decided it was worth going during our vacation is…

The Lord has been teaching me a lot about myself in the past few weeks, and the biggest lesson I’m learning is that I have an overall calling and what I’ll call a “seasonal” calling. It wasn’t until last Saturday (before the apocalypse– I mean, the eclipse) that I realized my “seasonal” calling is simply…

‘Enjoy Yourself’
This year, the Lord told me to make sure to schedule some time off to enjoy my life, my family, and my friends. It started off small; I planned a weekend away with my two best friends. From there, it kind of snowballed. My mom and I are planning two trips to see her parents…

Music Is Memory
It doesn’t happen as often as it used to, but today I had the opportunity to just listen to music and color. In hindsight, not having anything “fun” to do on my phone definitely helped. I don’t remember what precipitated it, but I thought of a song from Hawk Nelson’s first album, Letters To The…

Endings Bring New Beginnings
This weekend I am on the last Christmas/New Year’s, help-people-with-their-dogs adventure for at least two weeks. I promise I really did quit dog-sitting as a business. Last year Erica would wonder how much “quitting” was actually had… Speaking of Last Year Erica… I was thinking about a year ago today. I remember how tired and…
