Currently Vol: 1

Today I am linking up again with Jenna of Dearest Love and Ann of In Residence for their currently linkup. You can read my post from last time here on my personal blog, then go over to Jenna or Anne's blog and linkup your post!


I usually linkup with my personal blog but I figured I would change it up a bit and also add a bit of variety to the Quiet Place. So here's what I'm currently writing, anticipating, wearing, craving, missing, and encouraged by.

Writing: a ton of notes, cause I am currently in Grad school.

Anticipating: Fall. I love how the leaves change and temperatures get cooler. Although, It's been pretty hot here in Virginia this week, so hopefully the fall weather will come soon!

Wearing: I have been loving my "love Michigan" t-shirt lately, it reminds me of home every time I wear it and I'm loving this fall outfit that I found on pinterest. I am hoping i can recreate it.

Craving: these crispy fried chicken sliders with buffalo sauce, they look so good! I may have to make these soon!
Missing: Summer days with my family. Don't get me wrong, I love it here in VA but there's nothing like a Michigan summer!

Encouraged by: Lately, I have been encouraged by the She Reads Truth Hosea study, I love how each day has spoken to my heart! God is definitely showing me a lot here!

What's on your currently list?
would you like more of these posts on here in the future?

Be sure to go over to Jenna or Anne's blog and link up!

    Oh, more fried chicken! I didn't put that on my "craving" list, but it is up there now that I think about it! :)

    What are you studying in grad school? I know it's tough, but being a student really is so fun! I hope you enjoy your time there this fall.

    Counseling is a great major! I can imagine that it would be a tough one, but I also know that it will have a big pay off when you put it to use. :) You should post about some of your favorite books that you're reading along the way!

    When I was in college I took a psychology class using materials from the Institute for Nouthetic Studies. I read some great books by Jay E. Adams and one by Richard Ganz as well. It's such an interesting and necessary topic. I'm excited to hear about Christians taking this part of life seriously!

Being Content

Content, As christian women we here that word more times than we can count, especially in a season of waiting. Content is defined as,   pleased and satisfied : not needing more.  Have you been in a season in your life where your feel like you are just waiting? Waiting for a new job, waiting for things to get better, waiting for marriage, etc. Whatever you are waiting for, sometimes it just seems like it's taking forever just like a long line at the grocery store.  When I think about being content, my thoughts instantly go to being content in my singleness. How many times have we heard the cliche lines like "just wait, God's got it" said by well meaning people, only to make you feel worse. There was a time in my life where it was so hard to hear all of those lines without just wanting to cry, because like I said it made me feel worse rather than better.  That is when I would get discontent in waiting,  sometimes I feel like i am in this never...
