The Narrow Road

Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction,and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.- Jesus of Nazareth-Matthew 7:13-14 This photo taken earlier this week helped me remember this parable Jesus used … Continue reading The Narrow Road

Warrior LifeStyle

In one of the workshops they asked what is your greatest fear when your trying to accomplish a goal?

I had to answer, it’s always been my health issues that can get in the way with what I’m trying to achieve. However, I also remembered how my limitation is my motivation. That has continued to fuel me in all that I set out to do. Continue reading Warrior LifeStyle

Aloha Friday

I think it’s about time to finally write about our amazing trip to Maui, Hawaii earlier in the year. Just coming back from a short mini trip to L.A. feeling tired yet very satisfied for being able to travel. Makes me think of the endless possibilities. What I thought I can’t do or what this life fighting chronic illness and being on life support (dialysis) … Continue reading Aloha Friday

Blog Life: Birthing A New Word

Hello all there in the blogging world. It’s been a while since I’ve written an actual post on my blog. With every post it can be such a process.

Warriors Not Worriers

Planning for tomorrow is time well spent; worrying about tomorrow is time wasted. Sometimes it’s difficult to tell the difference. Careful planning is thinking ahead about goals, steps, and schedules, and trusting in God’s guidance. When done well, planning can help alleviate worry. Worriers, by contrast, are consumed by fear and find it difficult to trust God. They let their plans interfere with their relationship … Continue reading Warriors Not Worriers

It’s Starting to Feel Like Fall

In honor of the cooling weather and it turning October I wanted to post the 2 mini family “flashback” photo sessions that we’ve taken in the past couple years. They are all autumn/fall inspired! Love capturing a snap shot of our family because there is always a story behind it & better yet with talented photographers to creatively capture it.

Being a Patient Means Being Patient

This is basically how I felt yesterday after my dialysis treatment. It started as a good morning and even came in ten minutes early. It was the first time in a while that they weren’t ready for me. The only times I’ve waited was because a patient needed medical attention or they had a new patient orientation. We waited 40 minutes before I started my treatment. I let … Continue reading Being a Patient Means Being Patient
