"Reggie and I met in college in 2014. We were both athletes and we met through mutual friends at a fun night out. Reggie came over and introduced himself, we talked all night and later he found me on Twitter. We started hanging out together the next day, became great friends that eventually became crazy about one another." -Sadie Hall "Reggie popped the question on February 10th, 2019. I knew he would ask me when I was off guard but had no idea it would be like this... He wen

The phrase “everything happens for a reason” has been used millions of times over the years. People who go through trials and storms get tired of hearing it, I know I sure have in the past. But, after years pass, you start to understand that it is true. There is a time for everything under heaven. We’ve had our hearts broken, lost a job, lost a loved one, struggled with finances, struggled with infertility, the list goes on and on. But, did you know… God knows every single de

It seems physically impossible. Comfort…. Ha! Nothing seems to comfort me when I am sulking in my own self-pity. Being a new mom is flippin’ hard. By far the hardest thing I have ever been through. I keep thinking it’s going to get easier, but it doesn’t. When we have laundry, dishes, sweeping, full-time job, side job, ministry work, baths, breakfast, lunch, supper, grocery shopping, daycare drop-off & pick-up, and all the other needs our children and husband ask from us pile

My sweet girl LOVED the strawberry bath! I hope she isn’t gonna mind me using her as my model forever… LOL!

‘How do I know the difference between God’s voice and my own?’ That question lingers in the minds of most Christians during some point in their walk with Jesus. I know it has for me anyways. Every time that I would hear someone say “God showed me this” or “God told me that” I would instantly think – why doesn’t God ever talk to me like that? So… of course I would google answers to this question or look up books that would help me ‘discern God’s voice’. Quickly realizing that

We live in a world that celebrates darkness. That is why we have to follow where the Light (Jesus) leads us so we can overcome this darkness. It’s so easy for us to focus on the darkness in other people’s lives that we never even address the darkness in our own. The darkness in our lives may not even be things that are necessarily bad. But when they consume us, that’s when it becomes darkness. If you don’t stop & recognize potential areas of darkness in your life you may just

We all have that one thing. We pray, beg, plead, and pray some more for God to answer this one request. “God if you really want what’s best for me then why aren’t you answering me in this area of my life.” God doesn’t cause pain in our lives, but He does allow it. He doesn’t like it when we are hurting, but He wants us to trust Him completely. He knows what is best for us, even if it’s not what we want. Without full trust in Him, it’s impossible to be fully satisfied by Him.

We all know that Paul was one of the greatest apostles that ever lived. He wrote many of the books in the New Testament. But, that wasn’t always the case. Before Paul met Jesus, he wasn’t that great of a person. He was a Pharisee and killed many, many innocent Christians. One day he got permission from the high priest to go to Damascus and arrest anyone who claimed to be a Christian. BUT, on the way, a bright light from heaven shone around him. It was Jesus. He told him to go

It all began shortly after I got married. I slowly started removing the Lord from His rightful place and replacing him with my husband. I started to worry about my husband all the time. I was always living in fear that something bad was going to happen to him. A few months later, we found out that we were going to have a baby. I spent the next nine months worrying about every little thing. “why isn’t she kicking as much today?” “it usually doesn’t take this long to find her h

I have really been struggling lately with the fact that I have zero girl friends to talk to on a daily basis. Is it really THAT hard to find someone who is just like me?? We (women) have this “list” in our heads of requirements for friends. But in reality they’re just characteristics of ourselves. “My future bestie has to: Love Jesus & believe exaclty the same way I do, of course. Be in her mid-late 20’s. Be married & have a young baby. Her parenting opinions have to be JUST

Ever since my sweet baby girl was born, I catch myself time after time trying to be perfect. I want to have a daily set routine but of course it never goes as planned. I want to plan our meals for the week ahead of time but I barely have time to cook. I want to keep record of my daughters bottles/diapers/naps but I forget to write down a few and just give up. I wanted to strictly breastfeed but for the sake of my physical, mental, and spiritual health, I needed to cut back. I

We’ve all read the mom blogs that tell us over and over again; You are enough. I do understand that those mamas mean well when they say this. But, I’ve got some news for you…. You are not enough. And it’s ok. If parents were enough for their kids, then they wouldn’t need Jesus. Our children were loaned to us for a short period of time so that we can show Christ’s love to them and teach them about Him. We are incomplete. We fail daily. We are insufficient. BUT…. He compl

HARD, like SO hard. It didn’t really hit me that I was going to be a mom until they laid my baby girl on my chest. I looked up to my husband and said “we have a baby now”. It wasn’t just me and him anymore. We have a tiny human we have to take care of. To be honest, I miss the time we had together by ourselves. I definitely took it for granted. If you don’t have children yet, soak up all the moments you have with just your husband. My husband and I are the sappy super in-love

“I think you’re going to be a daddy” was the first thing I said to my husband on a Sunday morning 5 weeks ago around 5:30am. He was so excited. I got back into bed, he wrapped his arms around me and said, “You’re gonna to be a great mama.” Then he prayed protection over our sweet tiny child. A couple hours later I hopped in my car to head to the grocery store & I catched the tail end of a new song playing on my favorite Christian radio station. It went something like: “I know

Those are some harsh words. Just imagine right now that you were in what you thought was a good relationship with someone for a long time but deep down in your heart, you never really were fully committed to them and they said to you “I never knew you.” They could sense that you weren’t committed 100%. You weren’t really in love with them and most of them time you took them for granted. You didn’t really want to please them, just yourself…. Well unfortunately, that is exactly

If you’re like me, you get very frustrated when you realize you’re not perfect. You see other people’s lives via Facebook and think “I wish I was as good of a Christian as (insert name) is…” or “God’s not gonna answer that prayer because I haven’t been as good of a Christian as I could be.” I even tend to think I don’t read/pray enough for God to bless me. That is a lie straight from the devil himself. I am the worlds worst at not accepting God’s gift of grace or embracing Hi
