This statement was recently shared with me, and it makes me stop and think.  We are each in our positions  as a mother, a father, a child, an employee, a manager, etc.: ON PURPOSE.  Even if we feel we are here due to an accident; we are reminded, there is no accident with God.  We are fearfully and wonderfully made.  We were created by our creator, to further His Kingdom.  And, in this season, we are called to fully live out our PURPOSE through His plan.
                                                            We choose this each day. 
                                                             We are here on purpose. 


                               So, today, what will you do with your “on purpose”?

I want to write

A long term dream of mine is to write a book.  It is part of why I have a blog!  I've put this off with the ideas that  1. Other people are so much better,  2. I'm too busy, maybe later, and  3. Of, course no one would read it.   In July I turned 35, and it was great!  It was nothing spectacular, but I believe in using the excuse of my birthday, anytime within the month of July, to get what I want, do what I want, o go where I want.  (All within moderation f our family, budget, time, etc.)  What it meat this year was getting a trainer and from my 90 days with him: I have learned to work out (and to love it).  I have learned to enjoy running, (or real though, walking at a weird and awkward pace), I have re-found my desire to read, and I am expanding my reading list, even more, I remembered my desire to write! Fast forward to February, two dear friends introduced me to The IF Gathering  and this led me to Jen Hatmaker, Anne L...

Did you know that Comparison is a noun? The first three definitions of this THING are 1. the act of comparing. 2. the state of being compared. 3. a likening; illustration by similitude; comparative estimate or statement. The illustration of similitude.   Did you catch that?   THE ILLUSTRATION!   Just a representation, yet, I find myself comparing my inside to the outside I see in others.   I look at the Facebook posts and think, “man I wish I had it together like that”.   I look at Pinterest and I think, that wouldn’t take much time, I could totally do that, and sometimes they do, but mostly my attempts will end up on the “Pintrosity” boards! (I did good to get two or three Back to School pictures posted in the past 8 years).                   Things I have compared include my house, my children, my work, my...

Even in the little things

I was pulled over today.  I was driving, admittedly distracted, thinking about what had just happened at the store, and composing my "this is not right" email.  I came down the hill, I saw the car sitting there, then watched him turn around, wondered, then assuming he was there for me.  So, I switched lanes, so did he, and then those red a blue lights of shame begin to spin. I came to an easy stop, because, of course, I was doing the speed limit now anyways.  I pull out my wallet, see my (expired) insurance card, and just sigh.  Oh well. So, this officer collects my information, thankfully trusts I really do have insurance (I DO), and eventually comes back with my ticket.  As I sat there, I stewed, and these negative emotions just swirl, and I am floored that he pulled me over, I mean really, me...  I don't speed, I don't, if he only knew.  If he had just been at the last place, if he had known what my weekend had included, if he knew I was a go...
