    what stuck with me from my morning scripture (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    I have been more distant than usual with my Bible reading. I have been more distant with God. I am so aware of it, and I know I’ve made a bunch of excuses too. At the core, I was really just frustrated with a bunch of other things, and also not understanding the “why”.But as I return in this (very important) part of my life, I find a real sweetness: I find this comfort that only He can give. He fills me up.Other things feel like throwing little goldfish crackers at an empty stomach. Oh, what a g

    feeling hurt from people @ church-notes on influence (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    I know you are supposed to feel welcomed at church. Only, sometimes that isn’t how you feel at all. Sometimes, I have felt like I was just supposed to give money, always agree with some of the messaging, and sit there happily, while actually questioning if I was the right kind of person for the congregation. I’ve had concerns met with a sort of experience that feels on par with a HR department.I once shared a creative idea with someone on leadership to just be shut down ASAP. (For the record it

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    He is just too busy.SOOOO MYSTERIOUS! Texts get sent.You ask questions.He gives you some answers, “answers”, and you for some reason think it may work out after all.We weren’t meant to be in inconsistent situation-ships! We are supposed to find love, not a texting buddy, or someone who likes how you look but won’t commit.Our culture, obsessed with a lot of smut, where unhealthy relationship concepts are at times worshipped, hasn’t helped this. We got here in part because of a few things (I think

    he is “SO CUTE” but just not it… (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Too often it’s too easy to “forget” about what you really want to see in a partner. Once you are aware of how cute they are (ope) it’s easy to just settle into things, accepting the things you don’t like more effortlessly (or not). But I am here to tell ya that GIRL: please take care of you, and the desires you have in your heart, please don’t ditch them. They are unique to you! What if God placed those there with purpose? <a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.co
