Part of me thought he was kidding. But I know my husband better than that. "We should pull over and climb up the side of that mountain." He says so casually. We're driving through a beautiful area called Hatcher Pass and on our way to a respectable, well-used trail. I thought about shooting the idea… Continue reading A Moment of Bravery

We believe that we're telling the truth. But really we're lying to ourselves when we say it, "I just don't have time." This is by far the biggest excuse we give for not spending time with God. And I'm guilty of it too. Balancing work, house chores, family time and life can sure make it… Continue reading A Moment In-Between

I love getting rid of things. You could label me as a minimalist, but essentially I just hate clutter. I am always going through my possessions with a fine toothed comb.

I am a big idea person. I have the type of personality that doesn't easily give up once I start something. And I've started lots of things. Youtube channels, books, blogs, and business ideas. I love making big changes and going full steam ahead. But recently, I had been feeling dissatisfied with my life. I… Continue reading A Moment of Small Things

A sweet small little bird had died on the back porch of my work. I don't know how, but it was lying there so still and fragile. I got a dustpan and broom and carefully swept it up to take to the woods. As I saw this lifeless little black bird with yellow on its… Continue reading A Moment of Reflection
