Jesus has called us to be humble. The lowly inherit the Kindgom of God.
So why is it that we strive for greatness? For fame? To go down in history?
I’ve struggled with this thought for a long time, and I know the fight is not over.
The daily struggle to seek the face of the Lord and [...]

School has started back!

Classes this semester are actually quite interesting. My schedule is filled with theology, doctrine of creation, adolescent development (yuck), student minister as a leader, and a biological science class through TCC that I have yet to finish registering for. Fantastic. Tomorrow I will be finishing that up I hope.
Wedding planning is coming laong smoothly, praise [...]

Well everyone, it is OFFICIAL! Mr Nicholas Ryan Alley and I are getting hitched!
Let’s start from the beginning… say, October 23, 2007. Were flirting online, while we were just “friends” and I asked him if he wanted a banana. He said no, but he did owe me a hug, so we joked a while about [...]
Nutrition.

This morning when I began my journaling, my last words before the devotional reading were “I am hungry for Your Words Lord.”
As I opened up David Nasser’s A Call To Die, I saw that today’s devotion was about food… specifically spiritual food vs worldly food. How often do we as Christians fill our souls with [...]
A red nose like Rudolph

There’s perhaps no greater feeling than the crisp cool air against my face when I walk outside in the morning on my way to class. I’m reminded of wintery afternoons in Alaska, when sunlight and shade seem to be the same temperature due to the wind chill. Sunglasses aren’t a thing of the summer, but [...]

Do you remember the place you were when you free fell into the arms of Christ? Or for some of you… have you reached that point yet?
Back during my depression days a friend and I began having coffee dates in the morning to have some girl time, sip some cafe, and share our thoughts on [...]
Alabama Football

A few months back I realized I have been to numerous college and NFL games yet have never been cheering for the winning team. It’s sad really, being a bad luck charm at every football game I’ve attended.
So… a few weeks ago when Nick and I were at dinner with some friends, I announced that [...]
An early case of senioritis
Posted in Uncategorized on October 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
After a few weeks of premature senioritis (would that be called junioritis?) I have decided to stop with the laziness. My apathetic attitude hasn’t only been toward my schoolwork, but my house. If you been over lately, you understand.
I woke up this morning and scrubbed my kitchen, that felt nice. Now I’m talking to Heather [...]
