The Choice: A Talk about Singleness

Singleness doesn’t have to be a hard journey or a journey of shame; it should be embraced and lived to the fullest.

Continuing from last week’s post, I wanted to explain the actual reasons for why I’ve decided to remain single for these years in case someone might find strength in my convictions.

I have compiled a list of reasons as to why I have decided to stay single and narrowed the list down to My Top Five Reasons. I hope that if you are struggling in this area that one of these reasons will help you…

Wake Up the Wonder

Wake Up the Wonder

Wake Up the Wonder….

Wonder comes in and out of our lives like floating clouds that will shift and change its form if not quickly caught. We don’t often think of the word wonderbecause the word can appear to be fleeting and unsubstantial but wonder greatly impacts the lives we lead. It is a silent hero, with no need for applause it delight itself in its adjudicated ways of entering and exiting…

The notion of "taking your time or taking the long way around" is usually approximate to an outdated system. Innovation that provides short cuts and faster ways of doing things are all the craze of our society so taking your time can be seen as a loss of Carpe Diem. I encourage you to explore the grace of "taking the long way", for some our greatest life adventures are best experience with time. The plans of the diligent end up in profit, but those who hurry end up with loss. (‭Proverbs‬ ‭21‬:‭5‬ CEB) #totallychriss #blogger #travel #takingthelongway #wanderlust

Living for Now...

Living for Now…

Hello there I know I have been absent from the blog community for way too long. I have received the lovely Amber Alerts to return from some followers. Trying to accomplish the remaining 30 before 30 before my birthday has taken a toll on my blog time. Here is a thought that has been marinating in my heart for a while.

Living for Now….

Life is too deep for words, so don’t try to describe it, just…

Cambodia Diary

Cambodia Entires

In September 2014 I had the life changing opportunity to go on a mission trip to Cambodia. Up until that point I never really viewed myself as a mission field person, but for some reason I couldn’t deny the intense magnetic pull my heart felt towards the trip. What I discovered on the trip was much more than any preconceived ideas I could have grasped, I was forever altered…from the young orphan…

Him & I (Devotional)

Looking for an Ember

“If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.” (Jeremiah 29:13 NLT)

How does someone find God? Day In and Day out we are all seeking answers to life’s many questions. At some point we look to God; either to believe in his existence, to dis-proof his existence, for his love, for his power, or sometimes for his miracles. We find ourselves asking for Him to show up, be…

30 Before 30 Update

Ride a horse  A Horse Named Bella The inner cowgirl in me has been awoken! Since I can remember I’ve dreamed of owning and taking care of a horse like the characters of the books Black Beauty and My Friend Flicka. But there were several components that stood in the way of having this dream come true: A. I live in Miami and B. My parents had no desire to even own a dog, let alone a horse. So the…

“The more we let God take us over, the more truly ourselves we become - because He made us. He invented us. He invented all the different people that you and I were intended to be. . .It is when I turn to Christ, when I give up myself to His personality, that I first begin to have a real personality of my own.” - CS Lewis ❤️
