Not So Perfect

A Life-Giving Kind of Life

There must be something more than this.

Have you ever thought that to yourself?

Have you ever thought that there must be something… anything, more than this half-hearted life you’re existing in? Something more exciting than the mundane 9-to-5 routine that you follow, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year? Something more adventurous than the route you walk to school or work every day? Something more meaningful than the state in which you’re existing?

Leftover Smoothies

Friend, I am SO excited about today’s post… I’ve been working on it for absolutely ages and finally, I can bring you the … (drumroll please)

LEFTOVER SMOOTHIE!

If you’ve followed along with me on my blog for any amount of time, you’ve probably caught on to the fact that I honestly can’t get enough smoothies! They are just SO GOOD!

In fact, if I could have access to every fruit in the world and experiment with different blended combinations of them every single breakfast, I 100% would! But, somewhat ironically, today’s post is about exactly the opposite!

The Lost And The Found

There’s this story in the Bible, about a boy who leaves home. It can be found in the book of Luke, in chapter 15, verses 11 through 32. You might have heard it before- or not, but I’m going to tell it to you now!

Current Favourites

Hey there, you! Yes, you, sweet friend! How are you doing? How is your life at the moment?

This is a post I’ve wanted to do since like January haha- I was going to write it in February and call in ‘February Favourites’ but I never got around to it (clearly) so I’m writing it now, and giving it a much less attractive title! Anyway, I thought it would be fun to share some of my current favourite things- from foods to movies to books and more!

Let’s get started!

He Will Rise

Today, Jesus lies dead in His tomb.

Grief. Mourning. Anguish.

Life Update + Things I’m Thankful For

Hey, hello and hi there, sweet friend! How are doing today? What’s new with you?

I’m so happy this sunny day because my exams are finally over and today is my last day off school before a couple of weeks off! We get done around noon today so me and my friends are going to get sushi which I’m super excited about! Covid restrictions have relaxed a little here so that we can now all meet up outside, which is great! Other than exams being over, nothing much is new with me since I’ve been so busy with school this past month or so!

Just Be

I pride myself in having a very accurate memory that stretches quite a ways back. I can often remember details of conversations from months ago, and I can remember lots of specific instances from when I was quite a lot younger.

5 Books for the Christian Teen Girl

I love to read. I haven’t done an awful lot of it recently, but that doesn’t change the fact that I love to read. From mysteries and murders, to, well, more mysteries and murder, I love a good book!

So, I thought it would be super fun to do a post sharing a few of my favourite books… except not just any books. Not mysteries and murders at least. No, these are better! These are the five books I would recommend to the Christian teen girl or young woman trying to find her identity in Christ in this strange age in which we live. These five books are game-changers! Each one of them taught me something about strengthening my faith and standing firm in my identity. Each one of them inspired me in one way or another. And now, I want to share them with YOU!!

Your Will Be Done

Okay, so here’s a fact about me: I am one of those people who always needs to know the plan.

When I say always, I mean 120% of the time.

Whether it’s a leisurely day in the summer or a busy Saturday afternoon, I need to know the exact movements of every member of my family and the precise timings of the day- virtually to the minute! But, it doesn’t just stop there! If there is no plan, I will make one, and if I can’t make one, I start to stress!
