Serious About Faith. Light-Hearted About Life.
We are almost six weeks into 2014.
How’s it going? Are all your hopes and dreams being fulfilled… Or are you struggling a little bit to find your groove?
If that’s the case, then I just wanted to offer you a little bit of encouragement to hang in there and cling to Jesus… Because after all, even though we struggle today, the final victory is already won! [Read more…]
We all have them. Believe me, I know it.
Honestly, at the time that I am writing this post, I am having a moment. An episode. A day.
A day that I want to quit.
I want to quit everything. My goals, my relationships, my ministry. But I won’t. [Read more…]
I’m not really a resolution-y kind of gal.
Don’t get me wrong, I am all about fresh starts, especially when it comes to God’s mercies being new everyday or facing Monday’s with enthusiasm and drive. (Well, most of the time anyway.)
But for January 2014, God was all about the fresh starts for me. I didn’t make any resolutions. Instead, God called me to some pretty powerful God-sized dreams.
A couple of them are fitness dreams (one is that this asthmatic shall be running a 10k <that’s 6.2 miles!> in March) one is financial, a couple are spiritual. [Read more…]
If you wear your heart on your sleeve, you risk getting it broken by a stranger. But if that heart is a heart for Jesus, He will always protect and restore it.
Since re-launching this 7 Days Time website, I have been making more of an effort to suck less at Twitter. (Great news: I’m getting there and no longer despise it.)
However, when we do “dangerous” things like writing about our Jesus-hearts or sharing Scripture with the world via social media, we inadvertently invite the haters to stroll on in. [Read more…]
In a previous life, I liked to play it safe.
Oh, who am I kidding? I STILL like to play it safe. Except when it comes to living for Christ.
I learned quick, fast, and in a hurry, that when we live a dangerous life for Christ, there is no safer place we could be. [Read more…]
I am so excited for this vlog.
Is it my best, most professional work? Nope. But with my “special” guest, it sure is cute and entertaining. (Hint: My guest is 10 months old and likes to clap a lot. As you will soon notice.)
Over the last several months, I have really been praying about how to “balance” being a mama, wife, minister and all of the other roles God has called me to in life. Here’s a short video to share some of my insights. [Read more…]
Ok, peeps. I hope you brought your big girl (or boy) pants. Cuz it’s about to get real all up in here today.
I have dragged my feet writing this post. I have kept a secret locked away deep in my heart, telling only four other living souls. But now, thanks to the continual (loving) prodding from God and my friend Amy’s invitation to link-up and get “risky” in 2014, here goes nothing.
(Wait. I think I need a puke bucket. Nope, false alarm.)
So. Here’s my big secret. My risk. The exciting-terrifying call God has placed on my heart. [Read more…]
Happy New Year, dear friends! Here’s to welcoming 2014 in with loads of love.
As you ponder all this new year might hold for you, the good along with the challenges, I just want you to keep one thing in mind…
Yes, it’s a brand new year… But we still worship the same incredible God. And His awesome and Almighty powerful self can do ANYTHING.
Even more than we can imagine. [Read more…]
Hi there, friends! It’s time for Five Minute Friday…
(Back story: Each week I link up with Lisa-Jo Baker. She gives us a prompt and we write for, yep, you guessed it… Five minutes.)
So here goes nothing.
Today’s prompt: TRUE
AND GO! [Read more…]
There are few things more awkward in this world than not recognizing someone… especially when they seem to know you so well.
We’ve all be there. We are walking through the grocery store or exploring the county fair, when suddenly, from across the way, someone waves enthusiastically and shouts our name.
We glance at them and… Nothing. “Who the heck is that?” We wonder. We respond, pseudo-confidently. “Um, oh hey… YOU…” [Read more…]
It's been awhile since we have posted a fresh Factor of 7 here at 7 Days Time. We've done a few small ones over the last several months, but we wanted to share one of most recent random acts of kindness with you. Because it was fun. And hey, who … Interested? Read on...
So... let's get serious. (Well, not TOO serious.) Here at 7 Days Time, we have four coaching packages to choose from. As we work through your initial consultation call, together we can determine what package will best suit your coaching needs. … Interested? Read On...
