Trashed
I have been on a little journey over the last 10 days. I took a magnifying glass to every single worldly possession I own in my home and went on a rampage that involved meticulously organizing, cleaning, assembling, tossing, installing, filing, washing, donating, processing, rearranging… Nothing was left undisturbed. I went through every nook and cranny, … Continue Reading

Fried chicken and gratitude
It’s 9:30pm on Wednesday night. I’m hanging out on the floor of our apartment building’s hallway with Tater, writing while multitasking-ly throwing a ball down the hall so Tater can get his daily fix. I realized I haven’t blogged in months, even though I keep adding to a laundry list of topics I want to … Continue Reading
Change of heart
It’s 4am on a Saturday night. I went to the Tenderloin this morning to do meal deliveries at two dilapidated apartment buildings, and came home both heartbroken and on cloud 9. Serving in the TL does that to me. Nathan, Tater, and I went to Crissy Field afterwards to hang out and get whipped around … Continue Reading
Experiment: Keeping in step
I’m at work and I have a client meeting in 35 minutes. I have a quick thought I wanted to jot down though, and so I just created this category to house these teeny little posts. Yesterday night was a nightmare and I feel like sobbing. As I turned to God in prayer a few … Continue Reading
Newsflash: joy > pleasure
(This is a continuation of my previous post. I broke it up into two entries because it was getting too long!) The funny thing is, some of the most joyful times in my life have taken place over the past two months, when I wasn’t chasing after my own happiness or my own pleasure, but when I … Continue Reading
The only thing that counts
This morning, I felt the urge to revive my blog so I pulled up my ever-growing list of topics to write about. As I pored over the list of 50-something topics that have piled up over the past two months, anxiety crawled along the back of my neck. I feel so behind in my writing … Continue Reading
Bare
11pm on Monday. Blasting this at the moment. Little furball curled up next to laptop, snoozing away. Husband in Vietnam for a month for work. Tummy squishy after inhaling takeout, sipping red wine, slurping fruit posicles. Productive night: not drowning in emails as much as before. Starting up blogging again: broken sentences cuz it’s been too … Continue Reading
Sharpening the sword
Hello hello! It is 3:30am on a Tuesday night, no biggie. I am absolutely exhausted and, at the moment, I want nothing more than the deliciousness that is sleep. But I have been meaning to start blogging regularly again so I am making a point to push through and write an entry before I pass out … Continue Reading
From Christmas to hospital
San Francisco is all bright and cheery today; it almost feels like summer. I felt like a little kid skipping off to church this morning (well I didn’t actually skip but I did feel rather skippy). I left church with my heart still hankering for more worship time so I came home and had my … Continue Reading
Can Christians lose their salvation?
I wanted to highlight this mind-blowing post from my husband’s site, God and Stuff. Ok so, if you assume that you’re probably going to heaven, please read my husband’s article. I have never read anything that instilled such conviction in my heart as this did! Where you spend eternity may very well hang in the … Continue Reading
