Ok, guys. I’m going to be really honest with you. Pathetic blogger moment ahead. I wanted to start this post off with something funny and relatable to kick things off with some energy.

Overcoming Weariness

November 3, 2015 by Meredith Leave a Comment

You know the verse that says we shouldn’t grow weary of doing good? Well, I failed. Pretty badly. As we geared up start the Wicket Gate again this week like we had scheduled, I could barely bring myself to think about it. As if I hadn’t been busy enough trying to keep up with work … [See more…]

How You Live Your Days…

September 29, 2015 by Meredith 5 Comments

Benjamin and I have lately been kind of obsessed with the phrase, “How you live your days is how you live your life.” I don’t really remember how it first started, but this has been happening for like a week now.

What Jose Cuervo Taught Me About Trust

September 22, 2015 by Meredith 1 Comment

Up until just a few months ago (*sniffle, sniffle*), I had a horse. I loved that horse. He was a beautiful red color, had a great gait, and was full of personality.

The God You Pray To

September 15, 2015 by Meredith 2 Comments

When did we stop believing that God could really do miracles? I was listening the other day to the testimony of a man who had moved to a place unreached by the gospel. Not only that, but this place had a live and in-person witch doctor! No one was the least bit interested in hearing … [See more…]

Have you ever been to the desert? Have you ever been to the desert in the summer? Have you ever been to the desert when it is 121 degrees outside? If not, you should give it a try sometime. Come visit. Test your endurance. Benjamin and I live here in the fully cooked state of … [See more…]

Too Many Blessings?

September 4, 2015 by Meredith 2 Comments

Benjamin and I are college students, right? And college students are supposed to be poor. Everybody knows that! There are people coming out of college with thousands of dollars of debt right now, and we, of course, aren’t supposed to be eating anything other than Ramen noodles. The weird thing is, we’re really not poor. … [See more…]

[Podcast] Episode 2 – Busyness and Laziness

September 3, 2015 by Benjamin Leave a Comment

Hey folks, we have a new episode of the podcast up! In this episode, we talked about how our lives fluctuate between busyness and laziness, and how the Bible lays out a response to both of those things. Oftentimes, especially when we’re in school, it’s easy to get caught up in other things and not take … [See more…]

10 Verses for When You Feel Bored

September 1, 2015 by Meredith 3 Comments

I don’t know if it’s because school is starting or what, but like 20 times this week I have just felt this overwhelming sense of boredom with my life. I want things to be happening and for me to be doing interesting things and for something to shake up the routine. It’s not the same … [See more…]
