Coffee Date // Highs and Lows

Happy Friday! This week seemed to go by fast, and i can't believe i only have next week left of school and then the semester is over. I am excited about moving into my new apartment in June. So, today i am joining my good blog friend Jenna of Gold and Bloom for a coffee date where I am sharing my highs and lows from the week!
HIGH'S: 

On Wednesday  I got to have dinner with two of my good friends, it was so fun! It has been such a blessing this semester to have dinner with them every week. 

Last weekend i got to talk to my possible roomate for next semester, i am excited! she is so sweet! Be praying that it works out! 

LOWS: 

My Grandma is not doing well. She's in a nursing home now and she has heart problems. My parents are saying that it could be any day now, I will miss her but i know it will be okay. I feel bad that i can't be there but i know she would want me to finish the semester. 

So just be praying for my Dad (as this as been really stressful for him, since it is his mom) And that she goes peacefully. 
What are your Highs and lows from the week?

    Sorry to hear about your grandma, hope your family is doing well. Sounds like you and I are in a similar situation, as I am also in the process of looking for a new future roommate! Hope this girl works out for you as I totally know how frustrating not knowing can be!

    I'm so sorry about your grandmother. My grandmother, my last surviving grandparent, died last September. I still miss her. You and your family are in my prayers. I'm glad to hear your dad and his siblings were with her at the end.

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-endin

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 : If you there
