Color Me Unsure.

Time is ticking by here and I have been praying about where I am going to go in May when my brother leaves for training. I had been a little hesitant to leave here because I finally have a job that I love, a new church family to grow with and some really great friendships. But lately, I have starting to get a taste for home. It started as a twinge of homesickness for the mountains, and that grew into a loneliness for my friends, which grew into a longing for my kids and for home in general. I don't want to be anywhere that is not in the will of God, but I am not quite sure yet where that is.

Color Me Courageous.

I noticed today how often we are told in the Bible to have great courage and not to lose heart. Why would we be told this unless we will be facing very difficult times that require great courage and not losing heart? So, why are we surprised and discouraged by these hard times? What else would we need great courage for?

Color Me :D

Has life ever been more exciting in all its monotony? I don't think so. Life ticks on with a kind of steady rhythm. But yet, it remains exciting. I am in the center of His will and that is exactly where I want to be. I have the incredible opportunity to serve others every day at my job, absorb two, completely different cultures, and continue to invest in the lives of youth. God is beyond good.

Color Me Ready.

No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. 1 Corinthians 9:27


This has become my life verse lately or at least the verse most relevant to me. Sin is all around and determined to have me, but I remain even more determined that it will not.

Color Me Explored!

Today was SO much fun! I have been feeling very restless lately and finally I just had to do something about it. I decided to take off towards Savannah and see what I could get into without destroying property or getting chased by the cops. I ended up trying on dresses in two malls, eating Chickfila TWICE, finding a cute waterfall, losing my car twice in two different parking lots and ending the day seeing a gorgeous sunset. It was perfect and just what I needed :)

Color Me Heavy Hearted.

So many of my little heartbeats as I call them are wrapped up in wanting to be in relationships. And relationships are not bad, but they must first passionately pursue their relationship with the Creator of their hearts before they can give authentic love to another. How I long to help them see that. Jesus. Loves. Them. Passionately.

Color Me Bland.

Maybe it is because Heath is into health and such or maybe it is just one of those random moments where I decided to do something crazy, but I have decided no sugar for a week. So, I am sitting here sipping my black, no sugar in any form added coffee and wondering how long it will take for the sugar withdrawals to happen. Okay, so I am just being dramatic. But here it goes. One week, sugar free.

Color Me Surprised.

Last night was the hands down best New Years I have ever had. The entire night was a mystery as I,(someone who hates not knowing things) was forbidden to know what the night was going to hold. The entire night was played out without me knowing ahead of time what was going to happen next. Long car rides, dinner, walks on the beach and bringing in the New Year with a smile and a promise to make it count. I say we nailed it.
