I’ve picked my one word! finally!

I’ve realized that I’ve been “trapped” in by the way I see myself and the way others see me. That I live out what others think of me more than I become who I really am. That I don’t always feel the freedom to express who I am, that I’m [...]

I’m still going with the “best of 2009’s” but I’m a few days behind. So here is my attempt to catch up!
Best restuarant moment; Would have to be any time I go to Osteria Chicetti, I mean, this place is incredible. The atmosphere, the food is sensational, and the price isn’t so bad either! The [...]

I have come to the realization that my blog is too serious – like, how I talk, isn’t how I type and I think that bothers me on some level. Here’s to lightening things up!

okay, forgive the extremely cheesy title, but, I have plenty of things in my head that I’d like to get out and onto the blog. a few of them are.
1. my recap of Forgotten God
2. how to change your name (the easy and cheap way) – when you get married… (I’m not quite sure how [...]

I suppose I don’t have much to contribute on the subject of the Spirit, other than to recognize and point out the fact that the way that we describe Him, is what He is – Holy. I guess I’ve sort of taken that for granted and almost considered it to be His first name – [...]

I reflect on this subject [...]

I’m in “Premarital Counseling” or as I think we’ve renamed it “Marriage Mentoring.” We’re reading through a book titled, “Strengthening Your Marriage.” I was warned that the book was written in the 70s and may have some examples that are culturally irrelevant, but I was advised that the content is solid.
It is in this book [...]

It’s crazy that this past Saturday was the one year mark for being at home in America. I can’t believe it’s been a year! I really, really can’t. Oddly enough (they say it takes as long as you are away to reacclimate yourself again to culture) and my, I’d have to agree! About 3 weeks [...]

I’m doing a study on gentleness with a friend and I’m 3 days in – and already I’m very convicted and in need of change. In need of Jesus to rapture my soul.
Here’s a few questions that this book asks of me:
1. Are you approachable? If not, what keeps others at a distance? If so, [...]

I feel as if those “call before you dig” signs could apply here.
