One day last year, I had this realization… I felt kind of numb, and a voice in the back of my mind whispered, "something's wrong with you… You don't care enough… You're losing your empathy…" and it just hit me... Continue Reading →
Something I said before was, “you made me feel (insert emotion here)…” and someone once responded with, “I can’t make you feel…” At first, I found myself offended by their lack of acknowledging my feelings. I wanted to defend myself... Continue Reading →
Have you ever felt like your faith is a little lost? Almost feels like you're in the wilderness wandering around searching for water and you are so tired of walking and you're thirsty and you're just like… Whhhhhhy am I... Continue Reading →
I’ve got these thoughts rolling around in my mind. I’ve been watching this show that showcases a manipulative culture where men have dominated over women assuming that they would naturally, courageously fight back against their sexual motives claiming sex was... Continue Reading →

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NIV Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. Love never fails.

I find myself terrible at remembering names or other details. My memory sort of sucks. But in life, when circumstances arise that feel tough, scary, or hard to handle, a small, still voice whispers things like, "be still... let me fight this battle," (Exodus 14:14) or, "I'll never give you more than you can handle, stand firm, persevere, and have hope..." (1 Corinthians 10:13, 15:58, 16:13, & James 1:2-4).
But there is something about this Love; something that changes in you when you come to truly understand it. This is a Love you can't escape, sabotage, or destroy. You can HATE Him... And He will STILL LOVE you. The moment I realized He's there and He's not going away... I can't avoid it and I cling to Him.
