Positive Competition

April 14, 2025 by Isabella Filed Under: Blog 1 Comment

Not always does this “honor” refer to honoring someone through kindness or help, but in many ways, such as showing honor by choosing to seek understanding instead of judging; showing patience when someone makes a mistake; offering forgiveness when hurt; apologizing first after an argument; commending people on their hard work when you notice it; standing up for others; paying attention to things others do behind the scenes and encouraging them in their efforts.

I Played My Best for Him 

January 6, 2025 by Isabella Filed Under: Blog 3 Comments

Tis the season for holiday music. If you’re anything like me, it’s all you’ll listen to till at least mid-January (I am not very good at accepting the end of the holidays and the start of the holiday-less part of winter…). My favorites are the Charlie Brown Christmas album and every piece in the Nutcracker. This season, a classic and an old favorite caught my eye (ear?) and made me think about a few things in a new way: The Little Drummer Boy!

Taking Our Speech Seriously  

September 2, 2024 by Isabella Filed Under: Blog 6 Comments

The past few months I’ve been making a new effort to take my speech seriously. My efforts originally came from making sure I was only contributing Christ-honoring speech if a conversation I was part of turned to gossip, judgment, unkindness, etc. But after thinking about it, it only became more relevant as I thought of how we speak to one another day to day amid hostility that has seemed to increase over time.

A Seasonal Reminder

February 5, 2024 by Isabella Filed Under: Blog 1 Comment

January is the time I start to slip into a seasonal slump. The dumps, a funk, whatever you call it; life seems to lose its shine in many ways, and I rapidly lose motivation, interest, and energy, and I’m very aware that this period is about to last for the next three months. I lovingly call this part of the year “purgatory.”

Take Heart

March 28, 2022 by Isabella Filed Under: Blog 1 Comment

Recently I was feeling bad about feeling bad. As in, I noticed myself really hurting about a few things, feeling stressed, but I felt guilty about it. I thought that if I truly was content in God, I wouldn’t be as bothered and pained by those circumstances as I was.

Overblessed

October 18, 2021 by Isabella Filed Under: Blog 5 Comments

I’ve been using the made-up term ‘overblessed’ to describe the past few months.

You could use the term to describe the effects of one event, but I like to think of it as a state of being. I know it sounds kind of goofy, but I think that makes it even better. I didn’t even think of it at the time I started saying it, but it’s really just a one-word version of Psalm 23:5: you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows” (ESV).
