Recently I was reading through verses of the day, and one verse that was mentioned was Ecclesiastes 3:1 which says, “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.”  We as people will often go through good, happy, and fruitful times, while we will also go through times of greatContinue reading “In every season…”

There was a long time ago when I wrote a blog post about my four power words.  One of my four power words was to advocate or to show advocacy.  I believe that this word is one that is often talked about, but it is maybe not fully understood in its fullest potential and meaning. Continue reading “Advocacy: Change in Action”

In this past week’s blog post, I wrote that one of my challenges was for everyone to find one passage to meditate on for the whole week.  The passage that I chose to meditate on was John 15:1-17.   I meditated on it everyday, and then I would write down something new that I discoveredContinue reading “The passage I meditated on this week:”

My friend and roommate for the summer, Shaniese, was recently talking about a friend’s mom that is a major prayer warrior, and then used the term, being in tune with her Holy Spirit.”  I realized that this is something I haven’t thought much about.  I know that I have the Holy Spirit. I know thatContinue reading “Be in tune with your Holy Spirit:”

If any of you are like me, then sometimes you can overcommit yourself.  I have a bit of a problem with getting myself too involved and then end up being very busy and incredibly exhausted.  I was really bad at doing this when I was in college.  I got myself into many different jobs andContinue reading “You aren’t meant to do this alone:”

I have just finished my sixth summer at the Bridge of Storm Lake!! I have already mentioned this a few times throughout my last few blogs, but now I want to include my overall reflection from the summer.  This summer, I learned more and more about how to be a leader.  This was my secondContinue reading “The beautiful summer that is 2021 and working at the Bridge:”

I have mentioned this before, but I am in the process of finishing my sixth summer working at a nonprofit called, “The Bridge of Storm Lake.”  I talk very highly of this organization, and it has definitely changed a lot of my perspectives.  This summer, as well as last summer,  I was more of aContinue reading “Leaders do the dishes:”

This past week I went on a river boat cruise with my mom. This went up and down the Mississippi River. We left around the city of Davenport, IA to Dubuque, IA. This was really fun, and it was also very relaxing. The first day we went up the river from LeClaire, IA to DubuqueContinue reading “Floating on a river going upstream:”

For many years I have worked at the Bridge of Storm Lake in Storm Lake, Iowa.  I love that organization, and I will often talk about it and it’s impact that it has made on my life.  (If you have read a lot of my past blogs-you know this to already be true).  I amContinue reading “Live Loved.
