I’m a little nervous to post this one, but it’s something the Lord has been speaking to me about and convicting me about for a while now, so I think it worthwhile to share. And it’s about social media: particularly social media and motherhood. If you’re a mom who posts your kids/babies/life on social media, …
God has been revealing a lot about this topic to me, by His Spirit and Word and through theologians, so I wanted to share what He has been showing me. “For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). These famous words of Jesus implore us …
Seeing as I’m now 35 weeks pregnant, I have a pretty good idea of this third trimester thing now. (Cue all the moms who have been pregnant laughing knowing that 38+ weeks is a whole different ball game). So, I thought it would be fun to document and share my pregnancy eating habits over the …
If you missed my update post (spoiler: I’m pregnant with our first baby!), catch up here. Pregnancy and eating disorders are an interesting mix. Let’s just say they don’t go together like peanut butter & jelly. After starting real recovery from anorexia in December 2019, I have now gained upwards of 80 pounds and, since …
WOW it’s been a while since I blogged. I was writing so much at the beginning of this year, and now, here I am at the end of June and I haven’t written since January. I’ve missed this space and I’ve missed you all! The main reason I haven’t written since January, you ask? As …
Charcuterie is how we celebrated my 24th birthday this past year: for like 4 days straight. It’s just the best kind of food, right?! A massive board for 2 to pick from, with some wine…you can even put dessert right on the same board as dinner is! If you’re entertaining, you might be wondering how …
I’ll cut to the chase. I lost my period for 7 years due to anorexia. As a result of my illness, I lost 80 pounds in 4 months, and my periods vanished, when I was 15. Over the next 7 years, I was visited by Ms. Flow a total of 3 or 4 times for …
I have put off writing this. But Jesus kept gently whispering to me about it. With the sort of things I write about marriage…this is missing. This week, it’s been sooo on my heart that I haven’t been able to get this post off of mind. I had to write about it. What does it …
There are some things in life that you can get away with half-assing. It’s almost never a good idea, but some circumstances might be more conducive to it than others. I mean, for example, only putting in the bare minimum at your job at Wendy’s or writing a paper for an elective in high school. …
You know what I mean. To be hidden. How do you hide? Maybe you’re shy. Ever since you can remember you’d be praying for a teacher that didn’t call on the kids in class who didn’t raise their hand. You’d sit at the back of the classroom and hide in a notebook or slumped down …
