Coffee Date

Happy Friday! I hope you have all had a good week! Today i am linking up with Jenna of Dearest Love for a coffee date, it's where we share what's been going on in our lives or the high's and lows of that week. So today i am sharing with you a few highs and a low for this week. 


Highs
Finally getting registered for classes last week, it was stressful at first, but now it's better now that i've got a week behind me. 
Also finally getting all my books, which is kind of both a high and low cause now I have tons of reading to do. 
Our new design is finally done. I hope you like it! We are loving it and all the thanks goes to Rachel Cox of Oh Simple Thoughts, she did a great job and she is so great to work with! 
Low
Missing my family, It's always hard to come back and be so far away from them. But i will be back in March for spring break, so i am excited about that! I just wish they could come visit! 
What are your highs and lows for the week?

    Being away at school from family is always a mixture of fun things and hard things. I'm sure March will be wonderful and that the Lord will do great things with all of you while you're apart! :)

    I love the layout of your blog! And I hear you on the stresses of school. I am in my last semester of college so I've gotten used to registration and getting my books and starting class, but each time I do it it definitely tires me out! Good luck in school! :)

    It's going to be another great semester! I'm so proud of you for pressing on and continuing your education. I just don't have it in me anymore (getting too old I guess ;) )

    Your blog design looks beautiful! Rachel did a great job. :)
    I'm sorry you're missing your family. Do you ever skype with them or send care packages? I wonder if that would ease the pain a little bit.


    Have a great weekend, friend! Thanks for linking up!

    Thanks Natalie! I'm so happy with how it came out!
    So true, i'm in graduate school, but the books are so expensive and there's always so many. But that is typical of college.
    thanks! you too!

The Wetherills Say I Do | Guest Post

Founders Note: Today on the blog we have one of our August sponsors Madison of The Wetherills Say I Do . She is also one of my blogging friends, I have enjoyed working with her this month and am excited to continue in the future, she is a sweet girl with a big heart for others and Jesus! Today She is sharing her heart on this months theme: Beauty in the Brokenness. So be sure to check out her blog at the links below! If you've ever heard a group of people share their testimonies, a lot of them have a common thread: brokenness. A lot of now believers had to come to a very low point in their lives before they had their breaking moment of calling out to Jesus. Have you ever wondered why that is? Why is it that so many of us have to hit rock bottom before we'll realize our infinite need for a Savior? I don't know the answer to that question, but I do know that in my darkest moments, I've seen the Lord hand out grace and turn brokenness into beauty. We all tend t...

Four Tips for Creating Community through Blogging

1. Reach out to other bloggers:  this is an  essential when wanting to get into community. It can be as small as a comment on their blog, or an email. I have built relationships with other bloggers through email, commenting on their blogs, etc. For me it has been a beneficial thing, to create community in something that I really didn't know there was any.   This is a great post on why bloggers need community.  2. Join a blog group on Facebook, or some other social media group: I have joined the Peony Project on facebook which is a group for other christian bloggers. It's a great group and i would definitely recommend it!  3. Make meaningful comments: when I say meaningful comments I don't mean that you have to write a novel, but at least engage with the post somehow. Check out Madison's post on how to comment on blogs to find out more.  4. Plan a blogger Meetup : ...
