A year after my marriage was over I gave dating a shot. The guy became a friend. We talked a lot on the phone once we decided that just friends was best.

He shared a blog with me from an atheist relationship coach (which I thought was odd as we are both Christians). It was titled: Three words to better relationships: Raise Your Standards.

Wow, in January I've needed a lot of "resets". Not usually for finances, bad habits or weight loss, nope... situations and emotional healing. If you're in need of a breakthrough, listen. Know you're not alone. Take in some inspiration about how God is still transforming and redeeming lives in ways we can't even bring ourselves to THINK about.

I'll be sharing more about this with you in January, but my experience with fasting to be closer to God and find a breakthrough has left me in awe of how faithful God is, and how we truly are fully known by Him!

I've never heard the audible voice of God. But He HAS spoken to me. It feels like a thought coming to mind or a gentle tug on my heart. And sometimes I miss it, I'm sure. There is such value in training your heart to hear His voice.

Left for dead next to a dumpster with the trash, God had BIG plans for Freddie's life!

Once upon a time I was her boss, but more important than that was friendship. How the Food Network star Sunny Anderson saved my day!

Are you stressed? Mooooove over yoga. "Koe knuffelen" is the latest, greatest way to get over anxiety and stress. Oh, in English we'd call it cow hugging. Listen to this to learn more about this goofy trend.

God is big on second chances. (I'm getting an AMEN from my own heart!) If we're honest, there are a bunch of third and fourth chances too.

Sometimes He uses our circumstances, situations or even people to show us how our comeback - our second chance - will play out.

Could it be that sometimes we have an experience that comes full circle and it's not at all a coincidence?

Romans 8:28 has been more than on my radar this year and we get the opportunity to continue glorifying God when we share our stories.

Osi shares about a pivotal time in his life where God literally showed him that He CAN and WILL use all things for good for those who live him and are called according to his purpose. Listen to his powerful story.

Mr. Sanders had a dream and the tenacity to not give up on it. Over a thousand times he was told "no". On his 1009th ask, at 65 years old, he finally got a "yes" and the rest of us got to enjoy KFC! Never give up on a dream that God has put in your heart!
