Because this is the end of my challenge, I don’t know where to start but I know exactly where this post is going (for once). Life coming full circle is so beautiful. I guess I can start five years ago, about this time of year, walking into Lee’s Summit North High School to meet with… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Day 30
Day 29. This is it. I’ve been struggling to keep the fire of my faith illuminated, but tonight the fire is burning bright once again. I saw God’s Not Dead with a few girls from my Bible study, and it was exactly what I needed to finish this challenge strong. And I would definitely recommend… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Day 29
A month ago tomorrow, I wrote myself a love letter. I needed it. I lost who I was and I was out of places to run and vices to choose. That was before I decided to do K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge, but nonetheless, it was the first step. Tomorrow, April 1, I will open that… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Days 26, 27 & 28
It’s sad when someone you know becomes someone you knew. It’s been three days since I last wrote… Not much has happened. I’ve been pretty busy working at Hickory Pit, actually. I have just enough time to type out this post before I head back there for the day. The biggest God moment since the… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Days 23, 24 & 25
It’s officially a habit to write every two days. And I’m so sad – this challenge is almost over – what will I blog about then? Yesterday I was back at it at Summit Hickory Pit BBQ, and as I did the esteemed duty of watching the front of the restaurant as the fearless cashier… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Days 21 & 22
Day 20. Just 10 days left. It’s different being at home doing this challenge. Temptations are definitely less tempting (almost nonexistent), but the people here don’t know this side of me like many of my college friends do. “Jessica, I didn’t know you were religious.” Well, honestly, until this challenge, I didn’t know I was… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Day 20
Being able to come home is such a blessing. I wish I had more to say for yesterday and today, but I think I’ll leave it at that. Short, sweet and simple. K-Love’s daily verse is 1 Timothy 2:1, which says, “I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Days 18 & 19
This post is the easiest one to write since Day 1. It’s time to be honest (and make up for not posting yesterday). 17 days ago, I changed drastically, all at once, because I didn’t want to face what was happening in my life. I thought I could focus all of the emotions I had… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Days 16 & 17
I’ve had it on my heart for a few days now to write something related to the topic of my future husband. I thought maybe I might write him a letter telling him how excited my 18-year-old self is to start a life with him, but something about that idea didn’t click enough for me… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Day 14
“This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it,” says Psalm 118:24, K-Love’s daily verse for today, which couldn’t have been more perfect for my weekend. It was such a beautiful day on Saturday (I wore shorts, a tank top and Chacos), and I spent it enjoying the… Read More K-Love’s 30 Day Challenge: Days 12 & 13
