Following His Path To Something Beautiful
Have you ever asked yourself the question "What kind of world do we live in?" Usually it is asked when we witness or hear of something horrible happening. There have been many times in my life when I have asked myself that. And I caught myself doing it again this week, when the high school [...]
Have you ever wondered why you should be thankful? You see bible verse after bible verse, telling you to be thankful in all things, but does it really mean all things? Like everything? The good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful, and everything in between? What about all the bad things that happen? Do we [...]
I found this file on my computer this week, and realized I never posted this anywhere. I wrote it 3 years ago, but the truths stayed the same. It is the story of being a prodigal daughter, and the God who says to us "Daughter, you are now home." When I followed Jesus in high [...]
Why should I follow Jesus? I can tell you a ton of reasons that you shouldn't. But I share with you today on Candidly Christian 4 reasons not to follow Jesus. And they probably aren't what you would think! It is always ironic when I write these posts 2 months before they are actually posted. [...]
So this is not a pony tale, or a story about a horse. But the story is kind of hilarious, as I couldn't stop laughing when I told my husband about it for the first time last night. I actually don't think I think I finished the story, so he will hear the end of [...]
This year I decided to do something that I have never wanted to do before. Plant flowers. I guess I didn't really decide to though. They were 2 potted hydrangeas and were supposed to go to one of my dearest friends, but she didn't have a place for them. She wanted me to take them [...]
My letter to The Guy Who Stole My Car Remember that one time I got my car stolen? Like 2 months ago? Would you believe me if I told you that I still don't have my car back? It was stuck at the dealership for like 8 weeks waiting to see if the warranty would [...]
Holy week. A week we remember why grace is so amazing. It was Good Friday. And I was deeply grieved. I was making lunch and asked Charlie to get my computer from upstairs. He grabbed it, put it on the sink (about to fall in), and I found the cord left haphazardly left across my [...]
New on Candidly Christian Have you ever missed something? Have you almost missed something that God had before you? An opportunity? A blessing? A gift? I probably miss them more than I would like to. But today on Candidly Christian, I am sharing a time that I didn't miss the opportunity. Read the newest post [...]
Have you ever gotten a perfect gift? I am not a big fan of gifts. I really don’t like to open them, because I am so particular. It is even harder for me to open gifts in a large group. Because I also don’t really know how to control my facial expressions when I don’t [...]
