Life, Laughter, Love...and Shiny Objects
Goodness. This book has helped calm my overactive mind. And this is good for everyone involved.
Sometimes, we just need a little help weeding through our priorities and eliminating the ‘shoulds’ in our lives and schedules, so we can live a life according to our spiritual calling. One that matters. One that leaves us full of light, instead of drained of life.

But I’m working on it, and remembering the Grace that He provides us. Sometimes…when the day has already started to wash away from me, I find […]
Y’all (see I’m practicing my Texas words)… I’m at the airport, where I’m delayed, headed to the IF:Gathering in Austin, Texas where I get to meet up with my longest friend in life and meet a whole bunch of new friends too!

This. ALL THE DAYS this. Anyone else? Lysa, an author, speaker and inspirational woman posted this on her Facebook page this past Sunday.
