As I get older, I have become more and more reflective of every aspect of my life. How am I spending my time? What message am I sending with my life? How am I as a wife, mother, sister, friend, etc.? There are so many questions. However, I have very few answers to any ofContinue reading “All to Him”

Trust His Plans
All of my life, I have been a planner and an overachiever. By the time I was in high school, I had at least the 20 years of my life mapped out. I would graduate from high school, attend a 4-year university, go to medical school, and become an Ob/Gyn. Thereafter, I would buy aContinue reading “Trust His Plans”

Pedestals
Pedestals were meant to bring objects up higher, Not for us to place men upon so we can admire. Nor to exalt ourselves above others and say look at me, Or put our lives on display for all the world to see. Who are we except filthy rags washed clean by lamb’s blood? Or wretchesContinue reading “Pedestals”

Tears

My life has been shaken by grief and strained,My feelings discarded as if they were spare change. I’ve lain my head in sorrow,I’ve lain my head in pain. I’ve felt like I wasContinue reading “Tears”
