Welcome to Day 27 of 31 Ways to Embrace Lopsided Living! I love talking about community and how we need each other. This week we've been covering some important truths: People are always our priority. We need to be encouragers (and it doesn't have to be hard). Building community and enjoying our relationships with others is valuable. Today, though, we move into some tough territory. We've covered it briefly before ... but I gave you options and so you may well have chosen something ... [Read More]
Enjoy Community
Welcome to Day 26 of 31 Ways to Embrace Lopsided Living! Only five posts left in this series after today. I am praying you have been encouraged, inspired, challenged, and equipped by all the ground we've covered. I know it's been a lot. Don't forget every post is indexed and you can always come back and read them again. So, yesterday we talked about how important it is for us to encourage others. Did you do it? How did it impact you? Funny, isn't it, how when we set out to bless someone else ... [Read More]
Encourage Someone
Welcome to Day 25 of 31 Ways to Embrace Lopsided Living! Today's post is all about something I always MEAN to do ... but often fail to accomplish.

And I love it when people do it for me. But somehow, in the middle of writing, laundry, and assuring the dog he doesn't have to bark at every little sound, this is often what remains ... [Read More]

We mommas need people to gather at our sticky ... [Read More]
Whatever You Do
Welcome to Day 23 of 31 Ways to Embrace Lopsided Living! On Sundays we are meditating on a verse that encourages us in our Lopsided Living pursuit. Today's verse is one I am leaning into a lot lately. Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men. Colossians 3:23 WHATEVER YOU DO ... You should probably know this about me: I'm a perfectionist and a people-pleaser. I also have a low threshold for managing stress and dealing with change. Basically, I like to make a ... [Read More]
Try Something New
Welcome to Day 22 of 31 Ways to Embrace Lopsided Living! It's Saturday and we've covered a lot of ground this week. Let's recap ... Busy isn't always bad. This one is so important, y'all. There is room in, even in our busiest seasons and days, for us to be focused on Kingdom business. Lopsided Living When You're Busy. In this post, we looked at 3 reasons we get busy and 3 ways to respond. When we understand why we are busy, it's easier for us to manage it. Take Care of Yourself. Less ... [Read More]
