So, today has been an interesting day for me. The resounding theme that kept coming up for me is to keep pushing, keep going. I’m not sure about you, but for me, I often have feelings of defeat and fear. Sometimes they get the best of me, but many times I push myself to do whatever it is to overcome my fears or anxieties. In my mind, there has to be more for me, so I continue to push through. Any who, as I read an email this morning it reminded me to dream big!

I was reminded last night of an agreement I made with God at the beginning of the year to make more room for Him.
