and Purposeful Prose
Image by Ida from Pixabay Where to get started When you're feeling half hearted And you've felt this way for far too long You've become lost in the dust of the bustle and rush Carrying burdens and battles too heavy and hushed. There's no time to delay. It's time to unpack Unburden the load that weighs heavy on [...]
(Photo credit goes to Pixabay.com user Sergioht87.) If God gives us free will, How does He remain in control? Can both coexist? It’s true that God has given us the ability to choose. These choices, however, will have consequences made unwisely. “Everything is permitted for me”—but not everything is helpful. “Everything is permitted for me”—but [...]
Inclined to sit awhile Inspired to stop and write Meditating on truths Seeking God’s pure light. Captured by the thought That Jesus walked on earth He sojourned here among us He broke bread And felt our hurts. God became a man Born of flesh and blood To reveal the face of God To show the [...]

The rubber simply isn't meeting the road. You're tired and flat. Back before I ventured down the college path, I planned to write a post on [...]

In the meantime my ECEA (assistant) licence has been [...]

But I'm also so close to the finish line, which is really just the begining..... 😳 Children. Why did I choose children as the path to trip down? 😂🤣😂🤣 [...]
Image by Daniel Kirsch from Pixabay It's the day before my practicum begins. I'm feeling as ready as I'll ever be. I'm physically ready; I've organised everything that needs to be organised so as to not sabotage myself with unneeded stress. I'm mentally ready; College has provided the training needed.
