Boy is this the age-old question we all ask at some point in our lives! Not only do we want to know what love is, but we also wonder how we know whether what we feel is love. Is there an answer to this question? I saw a post once that said love is feeling…

There comes a time with everything that we do where we make the decision to fight for what we believe in, or run. It’s the classic fight or flight phenomenon. Fight is kind of a taboo word these days. I think most know that I’m referencing taking a stand……showing passion for something or someone you…

I can confirm that my life is most definitely not a Hallmark movie, as much as I wish it were. How do we know when God’s plan is before us? How can we possibly understand exactly why he brings people into our life, and why he takes them away? Listen, there are people that I’m…

Full disclosure…….I’ve been really sick, so my mind has been all over the place. Seriously, I’m not sure I’ve been this sick ever. It’s crazy.
