Stop Chasing Mirages.
We live in a world that is overrun with cheap substitutes for the real thing. At this point, I’m not even sure it really matters what the real thing is… think of something real and substantial, and I bet there is a substitute for it. There are substitutions for “real” food, real entertainment, real connection, Continue reading

The Era of the DINK.
Have you heard of the new phenomenon known as “DINKS?” It stands for Dual Income No Kids, and it stands for people who choose not to have kids, ever. Now. I understand that everyone has a right to choose their path in life, and maybe there are some people who were truly not cut out Continue reading

The debt he paid.
Have you ever felt so incredibly aware of the warfare that is coming against you? Aware of something that causes just an… edge. A feeling of anxiety instead of peace. A harsh reaction instead of one that is bathed in the glory of God. It’s so easy to brush it off as, “hey, we are Continue reading

Without love, it doesn’t matter.
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am Continue reading

Choose your kingdom.
“Vanity of vanities,” says the preacher; “Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.” , What profit has a man from all his labour in which he toils under the sun? One generation passes away, and another generation comes; Ecclesiastes 1:2-4 What kingdom are you working for? I can tell you that in my lifetime I have Continue reading

Get outta that funk.
Have you ever been in a full scale “funk?” I think there is a definite possibility that I am the queen of it. The smoke, anxiety, hormones, husband being away for over a week, (enter various other excuses here) have me feeling… blah. I felt like time with the kiddos would help, and made cookies Continue reading

Fixing my eyes on Jesus.
My nerves haven’t just been frayed the last while. They have been threadbare. This is our busy season. Our fly in fishing lodge is officially open for business, which means I start to feel scattered. We have a beautiful homestead here, and the lodge is a 5 hour drive and 30 minute flight from here. Continue reading

Mother’s day.
I’m a day late writing something for mother’s day! Mostly because I was busy being a mother, and a daughter, and a daughter in law. My weekend was jam packed. I hauled my 3 month old baby along for 5 hours of dance dress rehearsal Thursday, 6 hours in the throws of the first dance Continue reading

Building myself with intention.
When I cook a meal, I carefully plan how it is going to taste. If I paint a room, I plan how it is going to look when it is painted. Anything that I create, I do with intention, with an idea of what I want the end product to look like. It might end Continue reading

Warrior Princess.
Have you ever read a part of the bible and asked God a few questions about it? I sure have! Ephesians 5:22 has been used in every christian denomination I know of. Wives, submit to your husbands, as to the Lord. Many times I have heard it said as ‘obey,’ and even seen that added Continue reading
