God is working all around us…do you see Him? 3 questions to ask if it doesn’t seem like He’s there
Have you ever heard that Albert Einstein quote, “Coincidences are God’s way of remaining anonymous.” I personally don’t believe in coincidences; I truly feel that when they happen we are witnessing God’s hand at work and personal intervening in our lives. And for me lately, they’ve been happening faster and faster and more frequently. And…

The unexpected lessons from my fender bender
I absolutely love this quote by Maya Angelou, but I’d like to add one more thing from my experience today: 4) Being in a fender bender. The lady who backed into me was so apologetic and kept saying, “Thank you so much for not yelling at me!” Wait a second. …..WHAT??! You’re very welcome for…

Our Faith + Our Health. How completely interconnected they are…
I’m coming down from a beautiful heart-awakening women’s retreat this past weekend and letting the new truths and self-discovery settle in and NOT be forgotten. It’s so easy to have “moments” of insight, but to quickly get back into the daily routine and let them get pushed aside, never fully taking hold for the long-term.…

The message of Hope never runs dry…not for your SOUL and not for your HEALTH!
We can always use a little more HOPE–for our spiritual health and our physical health. Hope always applies. Now typically on Wednesday’s I do a weekly mid-week tips email highlighting one tip for Fitness, Faith and Food. But this week, I felt sending you a direct message about HOPE was more important. Hope is an…

Becoming your Best Means not Giving Up–God Calls You to More
Life is a journey. It has highs and lows. But through it all God is with you and beckons you to not give up. Throughout the Bible we see many instances of triumphs and struggle, and sometimes the desire to quit. To get out of the game. It’s too hard, too demanding, too difficult. Let’s…

Sometimes you just need a *break*– give it to God and REST!
We are going 100 miles a minute almost ALL the time… Sometimes we just need a break. A time out. A rest. Two things that help amidst chaos and overwhelm are prayer (aka letting go) and journaling. When we decide we’re no longer going to shoulder the burden, God has been waiting all along for…

When “life” happens…God’s response in tough times
When life gets you down and you feel defeated at every turn… God says I love you. I care about you. About your struggle. Trust me. Love me back. Have faith that I haven’t left you. Ask for my help. Share with me your pain. Your hurt. Your disappointment. I want to hear from you.…

His temple–Our responsibility. God’s best design for our bodies
I find it fascinating when I survey people or am doing market research that many Christians have not correlated the call to action for our health as being related to our spiritual life. Perhaps most people do on some level, but not as a daily intentional aspect of how they live their lives and how…
