Do you ever have those days where everything just seems to go wrong?  Like, reaaal wrong?

The car wouldn’t start and you ended up embarrassingly late for work.

Your hair dryer gave up the ghost halfway through drying your hair.  And then you had no choice but to look like a half-drowned homeless goat for the rest of the day.

And then, to top if off, McDonald’s gave you unsweet tea when you ordered the sweet tea instead.  No one likes a cup of dirt water.  That’s a bad day, y’all.

Numbers 22: What We Can Learn from Balaam

The Word of God is a wonderful thing, y’all.  And thank goodness we have a whole Bible full of God’s word to help us understand and overcome situations that may arise as we journey through life. (Like Numbers 22, for example!)  And sometimes (okay, all the time), the Word of God is confirmation to something we already know to be true.

If you’ve been reading my blog since the start, you’ll know that following God’s calling for your life is something that has been on my heart lately– mostly because I ran from the call of blogging for quite some time.  You can check out the post about that here.  But, it’s also been on my heart lately, because following what the Lord has called me to do is one of the most important ways to spread the light and show others a path out of the darkness.  Actually, when you do decide to follow the call, whether you realize it or not, you’re setting a blaze and, believe me, it does not go unnoticed.

Feeling weak? Find your strength in the Lord.

Hey, friend.  Welcome back to the new and improved site!  Please bear with me as I continue to figure out the new features.  Blogging is hard, y’all.  Thank goodness I can find strength in the Lord to continue on!  🙂

So, anyway.  If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you know I like to do a thing I call #FavoriteFriday.   Yep, you guessed it.  I like to post scripture that’s had an impact on me on Fridays.  Sometimes, the scriptures I post on those days are in the Top All Time Favorite category.  Other times, it’ll be a scripture I read during the week’s Bible reading that just really stuck out to me and made me think.  (Shameless plug here, be sure to follow me on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to catch my #FavoriteFriday!)

13 Verses to Get You Through a Tough Week

Ugh.  It’s been a tough week, y’all.

That’s the only word I can use to describe my week.  Just.  Ugh.

You know the saying, “when it rains, it pours”?  Pretty sure it’s been monsoon-ing over in my world.

And you also know that popular phrase the weathermen like to use to encourage us, the viewers, not to pass over a flooded road?  You know, “turn around, don’t drown?”

Nope, driving the struggle bus straight through it.

Friend, no need to worry about me.  It’s just been one of those weeks where everything that could be an issue has decided to be one.  I’m sure you’ve had a week like that, too.  They’re pretty common, actually.  And I’m positive that there are eight or nine funny gifs I could put right here to hilariously describe my week.  Gifs seem to make everything better.  Even the irritating days.

Do you know what’s even better than a funny gif, though?
