Unanswered Calls I don’t like talking on the phone, and I don’t understand why other people do. In fact, I dislike it so much that I used to have my little sister make phone calls for me, like my own personal secretary who never got paid. It’s ridiculous when I think about it, but my…
Party Time I was at a birthday party this weekend for my niece who turned four years old. She is a one-of-a-kind kid. While ornery and sassy, she has the face of a cherub. She’s also extremely smart, sweet (when she wants to be), and caring. There isn’t a thing she allows her older brother…
Tell us about you. My name is Rachel Vásquez, and I just turned 29 years old. I graduated from Southwest Baptist University with degrees in Spanish and Intercultural Studies, and I received a Master of Arts in Theological Studies from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. I am a freelancer and have a wide variety of…
My Way On a scale from zero to ten, how stubborn do you feel you are? If we’re being honest, I would probably rate myself around a 7 or an 8 on a day I’m feeling particularly feisty. Females have historically been the caregivers of the family, and looking at things from that perspective, it’s…
Battles When I started this blog, I told you (my readers) that it would be personal and honest. I’ve tried to stay true to that throughout this endeavor, and I plan to continue. Each of our lives is unique; we all face different triumphs and struggles, but that is what makes living so special. We…
Make Time In my line of work, I frequently interact with an older generation of people. Many of them are retired and in their Golden Years era. However, I get somewhat disheartened when they tell me that the Golden Years, in fact, aren’t so golden. I even had one gentleman tell me, “The only thing…
Be There If you have school-age children, you most likely sent them back to school sometime over the last few weeks. My three children returned last Tuesday. This school year and the last have been a little different for me…and a little more difficult emotionally. Last year, my youngest child started Kindergarten, and this year…
The Unknown Do you know someone who likes to be in control all the time, someone ultra organized who plans out his or her days down to the minute? Maybe you’re that someone. If something goes awry in your day, do you lose your cool or get anxious until the situation is resolved? I like…
Let Downs Can you think of a time when someone close to you let you down? I bet it’s not hard for you to think of an example. In fact, for some, it may be difficult to think of a single person who hasn’t let you down at some point. Maybe someone you love wasn’t…
Tell us about you. My name is Bobbi Ann White. I am 37 and currently live in Northwest Arkansas. I work part-time with college students in a Work Learning Program. My husband pastors at the First Baptist Church in our town. “Pastor’s wife” isn’t really a roll or a calling, but I get to encourage and help where…
Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you find the content meaningful and uplifting. It is my hope to not only grow closer to God through this endeavor but to share His Word with others, provide encouragement, help other ladies grow in their faith, and highlight some amazing women of Christ (both past and present) along the way.
