Be Present.

Yesterday I posted a list of things I hope to accomplish and improve upon this year. One of the things I listed was to “Be present”. Put down the phone. Turn off the TV. Help make dinner. Go for a walk. Pick up a book. Don’t be rushed. You get it. The devotion series I’ve been using lately is from Morgan Harper Nichols. It’s called The Binder Co. & so far I love it. I didn’t know what this…

365 pages

Doesn’t seem like all that much, does it? I mean, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix has twice as many. It seems to fly by pretty quickly, and I am always left wondering, “Where did the time go?” The start of the new year always brings the same feelings of nostalgia, reflection, and determination to do better. New goals. A new chapter. Of course these posts are a dime a dozen, but what…

A lesson from Jonah

A lesson from Jonah

God answered my prayers by sending me to Southeastern University. I love everything about the school, and felt that it was absolutely the right place for me to be. And it was. . . at the time. It was exactly what I needed, exactly when I needed it. I needed to get away a little bit, meet new people, and do something that was just for myself and no one else. I needed to do something to figure out…

Snow Day! 

DAY 3: We woke up this morning to a foot of snow on the ground! It was a record breaking snowfall since 1952! We prayed for snow and God definitely answered our prayers.  We got up and got ready for church, but unfortunately it was cancelled due to the weather. We were all really looking forward to it because the worship and service is in Icelandic. We began making our trek, through the snow, to…

Welcome to Iceland! 

DAY 1:  Today mostly consisted of finishing packing at home. I only forgot to bring skipbo for game night (bummer) and a small blanket. I didn’t actually forget the blanket. I didn’t bring one because I thought my suitcase was way heavier than it actually was. I still have so much room! I’m going to buy all of the things. Anyway, I took the blanket that they give you on the plane, so it all…

Why are you going to Iceland, anyway?

I’ve had a few people ask, “Why Iceland?” Out of all of the countries I had to choose from, why this one? Destinations is the missions office at Southeastern University, where I go to school. When I found out that signups for the mission trips were coming up soon, I was immediately interested, but I didn’t know where to start. I went to the Destinations office to see what trips were available,…

Fully Funded!

You guys, God is so good!  When I first signed up for this trip, I had no idea how I was going to raise enough money or if anyone would be willing to help me. I am blown away by the amount of support I have received!  God not only helped me reach my goal of $2202, He exceeded it! I am so incredibly thankful for each & every one of you who has graciously given their time, money, support, &…

I guess waking up at 5:45am for a 7:30am class isn't all bad. (at Lake Bonny)

Autumn walks with my baby pup. 🍁🐕🍂 Also, it is one o'clock in the morning, and I am going to regret staying up this late when I wake up in a few hours. But I can't seem to turn off my brain. Thinking about school, the plans that God has for me, and the many decisions I still have to make. I am the worst decision maker in the world. Ask my mom. So, prayers would be greatly appreciated. 🙏 #pleaseandthankyou #lunabellles #weareseu

When you ask someone to take your picture in front of the really cool painted wall, but they cut off all of the really cool painted wall...😒 but that's okay because we had a wonderful time, eating delicious food, celebrating Momma Peck's birthday! 🎂😍 (at Datz)
