Over the last several weeks, we have used our Mondays to talk about how faith and feelings interact.
We have discussed anger, frustration, joy, and weariness. Today is the final major feeling and it’s a doozy.
Worry. [Read more…]

As a military wife, battling loneliness sometimes feels like a full-time job. Now, don’t get me wrong– I adore my Beloved husband and certainly support his mission. But when he is away doing said mission, grown-up conversation suddenly becomes a hot commodity.
If I am not careful, the cold fingers of loneliness creep into my heart… And Satan goes to town. Satan LOVES it when we are isolated, away from other believers and under the impression we are legitimately alone. [Read more…]

Sometimes I get so frustrated I just want to scream. Or punch something. Or hide in the closet and inhale a bag of chocolate.
But I refrain. (Most of the time, anyways.)
There are so many experiences in life that can produce frustration. Perhaps its a continual miscommunication with our spouse. I could be a teething baby who refuses to nap. Maybe it is that pesky bathroom scale with numbers that refuse to budge even after you have worked your tail off the last week.
Frustration is everywhere and is one of the important “feelings” to discuss in our “Faith and Feelings” series. Fortunately for us, we aren’t alone in our frustration. [Read more…]
Quick! Think fast. When was the last time you were really, truly HAPPY?
Got it? I hope that you mentioned a time within the last week or so.
If not, we have got some work to do, be it perspective shifting or some heart encouragement. Heads up to those who are just now joining us… we are currently in the middle of a series looking at how our faith and feelings interact, as well as how Jesus did (or didn’t) experience those emotions.

As I write this, I am having one of those days.
Those days that I am just plain stinkin’ worn out. I’ve been doing this temporary single-mama army wife gig now for a few weeks while hubs is away in Georgia. I’ve been working out hard trying to reach some God-sized fitness goals. I’ve been writing like a crazy person.
I am weary. I need a nap. And by nap, I really mean one that is like a hundred hours long.
Perhaps you are there too. Tired. Weary. Needing a break. And a little dose of encouragement. Well friends, this is where 7 Days Time (and Jesus) come in. [Read more…]
Anger. Such a powerful emotion.
This feeling can range from slightly annoyed to seeing-red-smoking-ear-tears-streaming. There’s a lot of power behind that. I have discovered that some Christians take things a bit out of context and say if we are legit Christians, we should never be angry.
Yeah, no. I think not. [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...
