Hope :: Staying Busy

There’s a big difference between living within busy-ness and using busy-ness to avoid life. I’ve done both. Staying busy isn’t necessarily a bad thing. In fact, I thrive on staying busy. Having multiple projects at the same time usually keeps me focused and motivates me to do a good job. However, there have been timesContinue reading “Hope :: Staying Busy”

Hope :: Getting Through the Hurt

So sorry! Apparently I forgot to hit the final “schedule” for this post and didn’t realize it until now. A day late, but I hope it finds you well! When you get a cut, you always have to clean the wound before you do anything else. Is this a pain-free process? Absolutely not. It actuallyContinue reading “Hope :: Getting Through the Hurt”

Hope :: Finding It

Hey, everyone! Sorry for no recording today. I got hit with sudden allergies, and between the stuffed up nose and the sinus headache, recording wasn’t at the top of my list. On to the scheduled post: I want to focus today on what hope is and how to find it. I’ve talked about this before,Continue reading “Hope :: Finding It”

Hope :: Make Time

Originally, I was going to write about making time for the important things. I was thinking about big things: faith practices and studying and specific family time. As I reflected on everything, however, I started realizing how big of an impact making time for the little things can have. Yes, making time for faith, studying,Continue reading “Hope :: Make Time”

Hope :: Finding Your Passion

Sorry, I forgot to attach the audio! If there’s one thing I’ve learned over all others throughout my life to this point, it’s that we all have a purpose in life, and it usually lives in the very center of our souls. It’s our passion; what drives us from within. And I’m not talking shallow,Continue reading “Hope :: Finding Your Passion”

Hope :: The Bright Side

I’m starting this week’s post with an announcement. Next week’s post will be a guest’s post, with no recording. Just wanted to give you a heads-up before we get there! On to today’s post! I’ve talked about this before, but I think it deserves another mention. When we look at our lives, we tend toContinue reading “Hope :: The Bright Side”

Hope :: In the Waiting

Growing up, I was always told, “Don’t pray for patience. God will provide lots of opportunities if you ask for it.” So I haven’t prayed for patience in a very long time. But that hasn’t kept me from seasons of waiting. And let me tell you, I’m in a huge season of waiting right now. I don’tContinue reading “Hope :: In the Waiting”

Hope :: Beneath the Surface

(not recorded: I forgot the tag at the end, but don’t forget to like, comment, share, and subscribe!!!) It’s really easy on social media to see what others want us to see. And many of us are guilty of doing the same. I get it. We all want one place where it looks like ourContinue reading “Hope :: Beneath the Surface”

Hope :: You’re Not the Only One

When we’re in the middle of trials of any sort, it’s natural to feel like we’re alone. It can feel like we’re the only ones who have ever felt a certain way. We may know deep in our hearts that it’s not true, but we’ll often feel that we’re: You get the idea. This listContinue reading “Hope :: You’re Not the Only One”

Hope :: Life Reimagined

Have you ever taken a look back at your life and wondered, “How did I get here?” I don’t care how old you are. I think we’ve all hit that moment at least once in our lives and, if we’re being honest, if we’re older than 5, we’ve probably hit that moment on multiple occasions.Continue reading “Hope :: Life Reimagined”
