This Time Last Year Around this time, a year ago, I was still working at Nordstrom, feeling like this season of pseudo-unemployment would never end and there was no job in sight. I think I had just applied to my current work place, but it was radio silence for weeks, so I wasn’t holding my…

Trusting God When You Don’t Know Where He is Leading

November 5, 2018

When you look at this picture, what do you see? I like to think I look like a mini justice who’s tough on crime! Or a very smart law student… I know this picture gives off the impression of self-confidence, assurance, and pride. As if this person knows what they’re doing and where they’re heading!…

September 5, 2018

Today, I’m talking about my least favorite word. When I say least favorite, I kind of mean the word I hate the most. I call it the G-word… GROWTH. Why do I hate the G-word? Because it’s painful. That’s right, you don’t have growth without pain. That’s why they call it growing pains… Growing as…
