The Whole Truth About Moving Stress & Anxiety

This is my whole truth about coping with moving stress. I am not doing an amazing job. No, I am not even doing a good job, not even a decent job. In fact, let’s be real. I am at a fairly low point. Notice I did not title this article “how to handle moving stress.” That was on purpose. I would have no business writing that. Why am I so stressed? I don’t fully know. As a whole, this move, which started out extremely shaky, is going MUCH better now. Finding a house was a nightmare. But that’s done. We […]

A New, Fun Life Hack: The Monthly Reflection

This is a new habit I am adding in this year: the end of month reflection. I was surfing Pinterest last week, while I had all that time in bed with covid. Of course, it is Pinterest, so I found tons of cool things and new blogs to read. Side note: Did you know almost all of Pinterest is blog posts? Yep. It’s the number one place to search out blog posts on any topic. When there’s something you need help with, Pinterest and YouTube are the places to be.

God is with You in the Storm.

The other day, I saw a tweet from Tony Evans: God is with you in the storm. You are not alone. — Tony Evans (@drtonyevans) April 26, 2022 “God is with you in the storm. You are not alone.” We are in the middle of planning and preparing for our move. Life has felt like a sad little storm lately. It isn’t a hurricane. It feels more like when it rains for days and days on end. You know those times? And everyday is gray, and you keep hoping to see the sun again? All of these problems keep popping […]

7 Bible Verses for Strength When the World Feels Shaky

Sometimes the world feels like shaky ground, and hope can feel far away. We need to find a good word from the Bible that gives us strength to face our worries. I really don’t know how unbelievers manage to stay sane. Does anyone else feel like the definition of dreary right now? I have a head cold and was up coughing for the past three nights. The sky is dreary and cold, and then there’s all the scary world news. As an Army wife and just a dweller of Earth, this is scary news. You do not have to live […]

Is Your Heart Hard or Soft?

Have you ever thought about whether you have a soft of a hard heart? What kind of heart do you have? Our heart is basically the whole essence of who we are, you know? Over and over in the Bible the phrase “hard hearts,” or “hardened hearts” is used. Have you noticed, or ever thought about it? For example…. ~In Exodus, it says Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not let the people go. ~ In Ezekiel chapter three, God actually says the people have a hard head and a stubborn heart. ~Also in Ezekiel, God promises to remove […]

All The Different Ways I Want To Get My Act Together

Isn’t if funny how “getting my act together” can mean a BILLION different things? I don’t want to be organized in just one thing. No, no, I want to be a smashing success in alllllll the things! That is kind of hilarious because nobody can do everything, right? So this is my personal I-wish-list. Maybe you have one too. It goes like this…in no particular order… But is ALL of that reasonable??? At once? Or more importantly is it reasonable for me? Those are all excellent things on my list, every single one. But beating myself up because I can’t […]
