How to Lose 50 Pounds?
I am 2 months into my year of discipline and 4 and 1/2 months into my first year of motherhood. All things being what they are, I think I am ready to start applying discipline to a very undisciplined area of my life: eating healthy and exercising. I have a love hate relationship with eating…
The Best Way I’ve Found to Memorize Scripture
As I alluded to in my previous blog on discipline, I feel led to start my quest for inner transformation with memorizing scriptures. Last week I took some time to find some verses having to do with discipline and wrote them on index cards to use as “flash cards” to aid in my memorization. I…

Seems like there is “always something” that prevents my efforts to become a disciplined person. In the last 15 days the things blocking my pursuit of discipline were unexpected social outings and a…
One Word 2011 recap and 2012 preview
This time last year I wrote a post about Passion 2011 and my One Word for 2011: Courage. I’m not sure I did a very good job writing blog posts about courage last year; but as I look back over the year I do see glimpses of courage amidst all the major life changes that…
