Too many of us don’t view life in a positive way as often as we should. Sometimes we view it as a list of never-ending goals and accomplishments that we feel will bring us happiness and fulfillment. I am guilty of this. It’s one of my biggest weaknesses and worst bad habits. Especially since IContinue reading “Unexpected Lessons”

God literally is everywhere!
We may not always see it. I know I often don’t. It’s easy to get caught up in going through the motions with life when we’re not present in each moment, or when you have a stressful day. But God Himself is everywhere we look. I know I noticed Him in nature today through theContinue reading “God literally is everywhere!”
Riding with Rudd: A race down memory lane
Do you ever find your mind wandering to when you were younger or a child? I find myself doing that often. Sometimes to wish I could go back and relive those old memories. And other times I like thinking about those days because they still bring me happiness and make me smile to this day.Continue reading “Riding with Rudd: A race down memory lane”
What does it mean to have faith in God?
I believe that God is continually at work on me. Even when I don’t see it or feel it. One of the areas where I feel like He’s working on me, is simply trusting Him. Especially when I am STILL looking for consistent, full-time work. But what does having faith in God really mean? ItContinue reading “What does it mean to have faith in God?”
Two major flaws of humanity
Every so often, I find that I have nagging questions in my mind that I just have to answer. Otherwise they’ll continue to bug me and nag at me until I find an answer that makes sense to me. I’m having one of those days again today. This all started a little bit ago whenContinue reading “Two major flaws of humanity”
The Truth is AWOL, and Objective Journalism is Dead
I have always prided myself on trying to see opposing viewpoints. Whether I agree with them or not. Credit that to three things: being raised in a loving household with wonderful parents and an awesome sister, attending college, and naturally growing up and maturing. While I have my own inherent biases (as does everyone onContinue reading “The Truth is AWOL, and Objective Journalism is Dead”
Rejoicing in God (even when we can’t always see Him)
Hi everybody! I know I’ve been MIA for over a week since my last post. Chalk that one up to recovering from a NASTY case of the flu. The sneezing, coughing, fever, and everything else definitely sucks. But the worst part, at least to me, is having absolutely no energy to do anything. Other thanContinue reading “Rejoicing in God (even when we can’t always see Him)”
Thoughts on Trump’s acquittal
Finally. It’s over. The impeachment trial of President Donald Trump is over. The United States Senate voted to acquit President Trump on Article I: Abuse of Power by a 52-48 vote. They voted for acquittal as well on Article II: Obstruction of Congress by a 53-47 vote. Neither article came close to the two-thirds majorityContinue reading “Thoughts on Trump’s acquittal”
Recognizing God
I am often restless. Often never fully happy with where I currently am in my life. I have plenty more happy, and good days than bad ones, but it often feels like a little something is missing. I think this is because I often feel pressure by society to be at a certain place atContinue reading “Recognizing God”
What am I searching for?
Have you ever had your beliefs seriously challenged or changed? If you haven’t, you’re not growing or living. And if you haven’t allowed yourself to be seriously challenged at least once in your life, you’re missing out. There is a certain skill to allowing yourself to seriously hear different viewpoints, while still keeping your faithContinue reading “What am I searching for?”
