Restless for a Reason: When God Calls You to Let Go
There’s a kind of restlessness that won’t leave you alone—I tried to shake it off, convinced I just needed a vacation, a fresh challenge, maybe a stronger cup of coffee. But deep down, I knew better. God was nudging me toward something different, and no amount of planning was going to change that. It took an unexpected hospital stay, a premature birth, and a moment of undeniable clarity to finally surrender. Turns out, when God wants you to let go, He has a way of making sure you get the message.
Redefine Success: What I Wish I Knew at 17
When I was 17, I thought success looked like a college degree, a corner office, and a hefty paycheck. Now, at 37, success is keeping the kids alive, drinking coffee before it gets cold, and navigating Legos like they’re landmines.

The Day I Discovered the True Meaning of Strength in Weakness
When I prayed for God to help me understand 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, I was hoping for some quiet reflection time, maybe a fresh perspective over a cup of coffee—not a medical crisis, a career upheaval, and a total rewrite of my life plan. But God, in His wisdom (and divine sense of humor), knew that the only way I’d truly grasp His power in my weakness was to walk through a season where I had nothing left but Him.
Now, when I ask God to help me understand Scripture, I always add, “But please, Lord, nothing too dramatic this time.”
