Enough or More? — Autumn McKenzie

Me and my girls in Cali.  Love them — Me and my girls in Cali. Love them

I am content.

Really, I am content! I have enough. I do. Most of my basic needs have been met and I am grateful. Is this at odds with wanting more? I am restless at times. When is enough enough?

Life is an opportunity for growth. If you do not grow, you run the risk of being stagnant. Stagnant things do poorly. There has to be movement, circulation, exchange, and growth. It is a natural part of life.

I believe that getting comfortable can be dangerous. Staying nimble is important. I never know what life will require of me. I like to stretch beyond what I know I can do. I like to test limits. I get a certain amount of satisfaction pushing boundaries.

Who is Holding the Bar?

I like to set personal goals but society's or someone else’s measuring stick on my life does not necessarily add up. If I have embraced my personal truths and I am doing things for the right reason, I believe it is okay to Indulge some of my wants.

Rejoice Always

There are levels to everything. I can live a religious life that is sterile and devoid of divine power and muscle through life exhausted and overwhelmed or I can recognize the fullness of what Christ Jesus died to give me.

Alivia means peace, light, renewal, growth, friendship, and place of rest.

I woke up from a beautiful sleep on Wednesday morning.

It has taken me years to express the sentiment found in this post. God has been working on my heart. There was a lot of shame and blame mixed in with my raw emotions that I needed to process.

God touched my heart to shift my perspective on motherhood.

Shiloh McKenzie

The possibilities are endless. She is learning to hear from God. She knows that He has a plan and a purpose for her life. She has persevered through many things and her story of overcoming with help others.

Tory Palecek

Tory Palecek is my best friend from college. I met Tory the first day of volleyball preseason freshman year at Colgate University. We were both incoming freshmen. She immediately made an impression on me.
