If you’ve ever watched any show or movie that’s centred around a family, there will inevitably be a road trip somewhere in the story. As the journey progresses and mishaps ensue, one of the children will undoubtedly say, “Are we there yet?” Maybe if you’ve ever travelled somewhere with small children, you’ve experienced this firsthand,…

Ravens and Storehouses
Every day as I go to work, I pray that God will sustain me throughout the day. That He will see the steps that I have taken and the planning that I have done, and He will be faithful to fill in the gaps. That He will step in to provide and preserve when I…
Surrender and Receive
Have you ever woken up in the morning and felt more tired than you were the night before? You hoped that you would enter the next day refreshed and ready to take on whatever comes your way. Instead, you feel your battery is careening towards 0%, and you have no idea how to slow it…
25 Lessons
I know that twenty-five years isn’t a long time in the grand scheme of things, but I’ve always loved celebrating milestone moments. I’m so thankful for everything that I’ve learned and experienced in these past years; I know that I wouldn’t be the person I am today without everything that happened in them. Here’s to…
Time to Redefine
I have loved horses for as long as I can remember. My first word was probably "horse." I had horse shirts, movies, books, and a room that was saturated with every possible horse knick-knack.

Found in Christ
Imagine for a moment that you’re at a big gathering of people from all over. Maybe it’s a work conference, a family reunion, or a wedding. Whatever it is, you don’t know anyone there, so you will have to introduce yourself to every person you meet. So, what do you say when you shake hands…
Put Your Suitcases Down
People always say to learn from the past, but sometimes the past is too painful to look at. We all have things that we’ve done that we’re not proud of, and we’ve all been through things that we wish hadn’t happened. There are times that these mistakes and circumstances can loom over us like a…
Treasured Truth
When I was little, my dad helped my brother and I memorize Psalm 23. I remember piling onto my parent’s bed in the evening so that we could sit and work through the verses one at a time. I couldn’t tell you why my dad chose that particular Psalm, but I can tell you that…
