There is so much freedom in making adjustments along the way. Be it in regards to your schedule, your plans, your projects, etc, knowing that you can tweak the details along and along is incredibly freeing.

Phenomenal Growth
Let’s make this the year of phenomenal growth! Projects accomplished, opportunities taken, conversations had, and potential realized! Can you even imagine what an amazing life you might live if you stepped confidently into where God has you instead of holding back, listening to fears, and playing it safe? Why not incorporate courage and boldness into […]
When One Door Closes
“When one door closes another opens.” – Alexander Graham Bell First off, I had no idea this saying was credited to Alexander Graham Bell! Closed doors typically surprise me. I guess I don’t often feel that the answer in life is very often no. Rather “wait” seems to be the result of the unknown. Rarely […]
Scared and Excited
Seeing dreams come to pass can be scary. This never fails to surprise me. If they are dreams of mine – or even something I’m hoping for – then why is it intimidating and scary, in addition to being exciting?! I remember a line out of a movie I saw ages ago and the main […]

And in those busy seasons it seems a bit of a trick to catch anything up without something else slipping behind. And I get that that’s my choice. It is directly connected to what […]
Brighter Days Ahead
There are always brighter days ahead. Whether you are in a trying time or on top of the world, when we give God our best, there is always something to anticipate! A Thrill of Hope I love that phrase, “a thrill of hope, a weary world rejoices”. The world is so crazy right now. Terrible […]
Enthusiasm Makes the Difference
Enthusiasm Makes the Difference – isn’t that an inspiring book title?! Now that I’ve discovered Norman Vincent Peale I just knew I had to read it. I appreciate his take on the importance of living an enthusiastic life. His reminds us that one’s perspective or paradigm can be the difference between excelling and merely existing. […]
