Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

find your balance

with children.
with friends.
with dreams.
with spouses.
with exes.
with stuff.
with family.
you've gotta hold on.
and you've gotta let go.
because you don't have to be in control.
neither do i.
you can love.
and enjoy. 
and care.
but you can't change people.
you can't change circumstances...
well, except by removing
YOURSELF.
seems to me like
people get all wrapped up in holding on
because sometimes they think that 
they can 
do it better 
or more right
than someone else.
happens a lot in how we deal with our teens.
only ONE that we can hold onto
be completely safe.
know that we can't control.
And He reminds us 
let go.
hold on.
it's all about balance.
about timing.
about patience.
about knowing
that God has it all
and we don't have to carry it
we just get to 
point to Him
and say,
"isn't HE amazing!"
we don't carry the world.
or even our families.
why do we act like we do?
i think because
we're
IMBALANCED.
time for an alignment.
blessings.
