Great is Your Faithfulness!

The other day I got to attend the wedding of a dear friend of mine. The wedding was beautiful, filled with the Holy Spirit and blessed with love ones all around. I have known Leah for years now and I can say her obedience to the Lord has lead her to amazing places, and led her to her now husband. It has come with it's fair share of trials and tests, but God is faithful. I'm so happy for her and the new adventures she has ahead of her. 

 Being at her wedding brought back a lot of emotions. I know I want to get married too, but it made me miss the days when I was traveling, and the community missions brings. There is something so special about being somewhere abroad and the experiences you have with those around you. You can't even explain it sometimes. I have been home for a little over four years now and it's been a long haul of working through issues and having to work in general. What I am feeling now is ready to actually move forward. But I am not who or where I was five years ago. I am ready to take on real challenges to move on with my life. 

 I feel that a lot of us are in that 'waiting' stage right now. We want to move on so bad and are tired of waiting. The truth is that you don't want it to come so fast. Because everything happens all at once at your going to look back and wish you spent more time with the people around you and did more things while you could. Life can change so quickly. what we should be focusing on is what am I doing right now to work on myself and to work on life issues to be prepared for when that change happens. 

 There are so many times I wish I was more present than wanting to get to the next big thing. I'm ready to move on and travel again and to not have this nine to five life. And wanting to be on my own and meet the love of my life. The only thing I can do right now is to keep preparing my heart, and take each step at a time to get to where I want to be. Don't be afraid to talk through your struggles with someone, because we can't do it alone. We need each other and others to look up to.

True Love Dates

I  attended a singles seminar with Debra Fileta, who is a relationships blogger and counselor. She talked through some hard truths, but also what it means to be a healthy person to have healthy relationships. Here are a few things she said: •Healthy people equal healthy relationships  •Set boundaries as a single person way before marriage •Be two whole people who don’t need each other, but rather choose to be with each other  •Choose someone who will get better with time  •Give and take, learn to communicate your feelings, interdependence  •Be spiritually equal, anything of value is worth protecting  Relationships are hard. We talk it up, to be something so much more then it is. That includes families, kids, relationships and marriage. Your feelings are vital and need to be able to talk about it. Learning to have a middle ground with personality differences. And really knowing who you are. Be in a healthy place as a single person. This is something ...

Beautiful Surrender

Beautiful surrender, that's right where I want to be.  When we have seasons of extreme highs and lows, its easy to have doubts and often wonder how God will work it all out. I'm in a waiting season right now. God has me right where I am for a reason. I'm stressed out all the time wondering what the future holds for a job. I've had distractions and wondering if it will ever workout with anyone. It's asking God for patience, obedience, discernment and contentment. God has so much in store for me that I don't know about.  God sees the unseen. He see's the entire picture. He is the master match maker, He sees the skills I will need for the next step. Its a season of preparation. It's the waiting in the process that is difficult. God is also preparing his heart too. And sometimes you are two steps ahead. And you need to pray that God is preparing them for you. Because it involves two people. But you need to focus on yourself and God. Its all the doubts...

Hello Friends!! So I wanted to share some heart to heart thought's with you. Over the past year or two, I have overcome some very hard life lessons, many of which are crucial to our well being. I learned a lot about the 'little stuff' that makes a big difference. I have learned more about myself and my character and how I handle situations, how I relate to people, and what I strive to be. When sometimes you need to learn to let go, because a lot is out of your control. but you can only do the best that you can. Life is messy, relationships are messy, everything is messy. but God takes that brokenness and can make it something beautiful. I felt convicted about my social media use over the summer. and you know what, I'm glad that I was. I didn't realize how consumed I was by it, even for the wrong reasons. It has its uses, but we need to be so careful in how we use it. Who we are online is not who we are in real life. we have personalities, a way we express ours...
