Welcome to day 2 of 31 Simple Ways to Embrace Lopsided Living! Since it's Sunday, I won't be writing a long post but I do want to encourage you with a verse of Scripture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. John 10:10 This verse holds a special meaning to me because it reminds me of an important truth related to lopsided living — God has called me to a life of abundance not scarcity! In the garden, Satan directed ... [Read More]

Have You Ever Felt Fresh Out of Amazing?
I remember the first time I read Stacey's confession ... her words painted a picture of exactly how I felt! Lord, I feel like I need to be amazing. The trouble is, I'm fresh out of amazing. Honestly, it rings as true today as it did almost five years ago. Monday, I sent an email to the Prayers for Girls subscribers. This was the first paragraph: I wanted to start this email all peppy and enthusiastic but the truth is, I am exhausted. Not just physically tired ... but in every way drained. ... [Read More]
