Escape the Noise
In a world full of noise, silence has become uncomfortable. Why is it so difficult to escape the noise? Being still makes us anxious. If there is a moment of quiet, we feel that we must fill it with something, anything to occupy the empty space. My soul, wait in...
Do You Trust Me?
God asked, "Do you trust me?" I quickly replied, "Yes, of course, I trust you." He asked again, "Do you trust me?" Have you ever been in a season in your life when you've questioned your trust in the Lord? Did you wonder why your distrust was present? When seasons...
Content With The Unknown
I started this blog three times within an hour and then stepped away for a few hours. I can't seem to find the words to share my heart with you today, but I'm going to try. I've found myself in a weird place. My feelings are a bit jumbled. Today is my second...

I'm pretty confident I've discovered a sure-fire way to know when it's time to bring something to an end. What is that? Keep trying to revive the very thing God has called to completion. My heart and soul were totally committed to health, fitness, and nutrition. I...
