When It’s Hard To Make Decisions…

I care deeply about what other people think of me. According to my life coach (also- bless her) I care more about the voices of those who hold a high seat in my inner counsel. I am a 6 on the enneagram, and I am convinced 6’s have a REALLY hard time hearing the voice [...]

To Be Honest…

To Be Honest…

To be honest...I'm kind of sick of feeling like that I'm not doing enough for God. And here's why...because that feeling of inadequacy isn't FROM God.   It's coming from people and posts and agendas and opinions that try to elevate their human holiness by preaching at the world to fall in line with standards [...]

Celeste + Brandon Engagement Story…

On the morning of June 14th, 2018 I had no clue what was going to happen... I drank my coffee, went to work, came home, and changed because my friend Abi who had moved back to COS said that she wanted to practice some photography shots with the mountains in Red Rock Canyon. To be [...]

Marks Made By Mental Health…

May 16, 2019by Celeste ElizabethLeave a Comment on Marks Made By Mental Health…

May is Mental Health Awareness month and I’ve been super encouraged by people who have raised awareness about the reality of mental health. So many more people struggle with this reality than we think...from anxiety to postpartum depression to anxiety disorders some of us have never heard of. Mental health issues span wider than we [...]

Fighting Fear…

The last post I wrote was Fringing Fear...talking about how fear and anxiety always seem to be licking at my heels. During our engagement season, my fear was probably the worst it had been in a long time. Since that time I couldn't get on a plane. I've also written often that I have been [...]

2018 Update…

Before you say, "there she is!!"... 2018 hasn't gone any way that I thought it would. I really should know better. That when I make a plan, it gets flipped on it's head. This is why my senior year of high school, when I planned to go to a small liberal arts school and be [...]

Olivia’s Baptism…

I don’t think we know what our deposits do on this side of heaven.    What I do know is that today, something is different. Due to Olivia’s willingness, excitement and courage about what her Redeemer has done in her life more could have crossed the line of heavens gates. Prodigal sons and daughters could [...]

I’m Quitting…

He asked me… "what do you want to be when you grow up?” My initial answer was to deflect my true dreams with a joking response. “a princess…” But then I got serious. I said what was true. “If I could really pick anything I would be an author.” After discussing it a little bit [...]

Less “Loving On” People…

I was watching Friends (for the 6th or 7th time) this week. I am in season 4 when Ross and Emily are about to get married and Rachel has this wave of boldness where she feels the greatest urge to tell Ross that she’s still in love with him. Everyone, literally everyone, tells her that’s [...]

It Is Written…

A year ago, I walked into a tattoo shop and I handed them a card with the phrase “It Is Written…” scripted onto it. I received a price quote, made an appointment, and then when the day came I totally skipped out. I just didn’t even go. Looking back, I think the reasoning for that [...]
