My Ramblings on Life, Literature, and Faith
I’ve always been one to write in a journal–my oldest journal dates back to when I was seven years old and just starting to write. I’m a fairly organized person, so each journal sort of has a different purpose–one for writing events and hopes and how I feel in, and one for prayers and church notes and all that jazz. Today, I want to tell you about some journals that combine devotionals and writing.

Today’s guest blogger is one I came across in the WordPress Reader. I saw this incredible post she had written and asked to share it with all of you, so here it is!
This word may not be for everybody, but it sure hit me where I’m at when I read it.
Every month I share some things I enjoyed that month. This month is no different, albeit a little shorter of a list. Enjoy!
I’m back again with another verse that has been impactful to me. In this series, I’ve been taking you through several verses that helped me get through various seasons of my life and have a special place in my heart.

In case you’re new here and don’t remember the previous Life Verses posts, let me catch you up on what’s going on.

Each one made an impact for at least a couple months of my life for the season I was in. In this series, I’m going back through verses that have been special to me and telling you what they mean to me.
Life can be crazy. I’m sure everyone that’s alive knows that and this isn’t new news to anyone, but sometimes, it can feel as if you’re being slung around more than normal.
