Work-in-Progress Wednesday: Q&A

This week on Work-in-Progress Wednesday I wanted  to offer YOU an opportunity! What I'd like to do is have an extended Q&A session.  I know there are still a lot of you out there who don't really understand what blogging is, what I'm about, or how to do certain things.  Others of you are more experienced but may have some more in depth questions. Here's your opportunity to ask me any question you want (as long as it's appropriate, sincere, and polite).  If you have any question at all about the blog: how to do something, what I think about…

When Friendship Doesn’t Come Easy

I hope I'm not the only one when I say this, but I think making friends is hard.  It was hard in junior high, it was hard in college, and it's hard now.  I went to Mom & Me Camp with my youngest daughter this weekend, and I felt like I was 12 again: unsure of what to say, afraid of looking stupid, just desperate for a friend.  My little girl made friends in 20 minutes.  I'm still not sure if I made friends or not. But one thing I know for sure: I am desperate for them.  Friendships, I…

Run to Jesus

"I don't really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don't do it.  Instead, I do what I hate." - Romans 5:17 Regardless of your sin, don't you often find yourself thinking these same sentiments that Paul wrote thousands of years ago?  It can be as simple as eating that extra piece of chocolate.  I know it goes: "Oooh, chocolate." "No.  I can't have that." "But it looks so good." "Nope, can't do it." "But it's just one piece." "Oh, okay, one piece won't hurt." Even when we know we're supposed to be feeding ourselves…

Goal Setting: Week of July 12, 2015

This was a busy week.  I spent the week trying to recuperate from our trip a few weeks ago, and Prince Charming spent his time preparing for a mission trip.  We also had a couple of extra activities we needed to provide transportation for, and I spent a lot of time on the book, which means I didn't get as much work done around the house.  Next week I'm hoping for slightly more calm but we'll see.  Here are my goals for this week: Spiritual: Devotions (5/7) Designated prayer time (2/7) Mental: Journal (2/7) Physical: No soda 8 c. of…

Work-in-Progress Wednesday: A Book Update

Well it's been quite a while since I gave an update on the book.  There has been at least one of you who has frequently asked me how it's coming along, and the group of individuals on my prayer team could use an update as well.  So I figured I'd share openly. To tell the truth, I've been trying to avoid working on the book.  Whenever I sit down to write, I get so picky about what I've already written that sometimes it's difficult just to write something new.  That fear thing, though.  But because I know that this is what God wants…
