A goal forgotten

Imagine that. I slipped and stopped posting. Not the first time and I wish I could promise it would be the last.
I do have hopes of continuing to use this blog. A new year will soon be upon us and there is lots in store for our family next year. I just haven't figured out how to use this blog yet. Giving a run down of my goals was uninteresting and awkward for me. But I do want it to be different from my other blogs, which have also gone neglected this year and many other times in the past. I will be thinking this through and getting back to you, if there are even any readers. Hope this year was well for you. Many blessings.

Welcome to my journey.

Let me start by saying hello. I don't expect there to be many of you out there but I do hope to at least reach a few hearts in need. This is a personal journey for me. It's my journey to see myself the way that God sees me and to be the woman God has called me to be. Now here is where I get transparent. If transparency makes you uncomfortable then go ahead and move along. To see any fruit on this journey I will have to be transparent. You have been warned. I've been struggling off and on for years with depression. I'm currently trying to pull myself out of a rough bout of postpartum depression. Many days I struggle just to find the energy to perform basic daily tasks. This year I'm adamant to move forward. Most of this journey will be taken in baby steps. There might be set backs and I'm sure I'll drop the ball at least once. Depression is serious and while I know I can make changes to improve my quality of life, I have to remain realistic. My changes ma...

Day Three

Today I worked through Day Three of 100 Days to Brave. The task at the end of the devotional was to journal about two or three events or moments in your life where someone might have labeled you as brave. While trying to think through different events it hit me, “What one person might label as brave, another person might label as stupid.” Because every moments that popped into my mind I was immediately reminded of how that was a ridiculous thing to do. But isn’t that just like the enemy? He wants to take every good thing about you and twist it and distort it. If you can look past those lies, refocus on the truth of Christ, you can marvel at how God has equipped you. Looking back on my life I realized I was braver than I ever gave myself credit for. I’ve never really thought of how vulnerable and transparent I allow myself to be and how that is brave. I’d forgotten I made the first move with my husband. I’d overlooked how I’d stretched myself to embrace a leading. I deserve none o...

A Week of Lessons

This week was one for the books. Monday was like any other day. Nothing unusual. No signs of things to come. And then Tuesday. Tuesday I woke up at 3am in pain. Now I’ve delivered three babies completely unmedicated in my home. I don’t think I have an exceptional pain tolerance but I feel safe in saying I can handle a bit of pain. But this pain nearly had me in tears. I messaged my husband first. Around the 1hr mark I sent a text asking for prayer to my lovely CBS leadership ladies. I don’t even have the words to express how amazing these ladies are. One immediately text back asking if she needed to come take me to the ER. Yes at 4am. Around the 1.5hr mark Jesse called me. Once he heard me on the phone he knew. No more being tough and waiting it out. He wanted me to go to the ER. My voice cracked and my eyes filled with tears and still I tried to explain how I thought it would be okay and I didn’t want to make a fuss. But at the same time I knew he was right. So I told my friend t...
