I am past the halfway point on this journey called life. My faith and life experiences have waxed and waned, much the same as yours. I recently began a practice of waking up early in the morning and having coffee time with God. Words cannot describe how this has changed my perspective. As someone who has always struggled with bouts of anxiety, spiraling thoughts and perfectionism, this coffee time with the Lord has given me such a sense of peace. This doesn’t mean my life is now without trials and tribulations. I am still messy, imperfect and often chaotic, but this time has brought me clarity. It is my heart’s desire to share this with you.

Imagine that you and I are meeting for lunch and having a casual conversation like two old friends. I want you to know that I hear you, I validate you and I can relate to you. This is how I feel after my coffee time with God and so I begin the journey to share this with you. I hope I make you laugh (I believe God has an incredible sense of humor) while I share thoughts that percolate in my head as I try my best to relate them to scripture.

I am no bible scholar or preacher. I am not polished or poised. I am just an honest, vulnerable and flawed woman of faith who has chosen to share my struggles and victories and how I relate them to scripture. My prayer is that these messages connect with you and allow you to feel less alone.
