In an effort to do some of that “practicing what I preach” stuff I talked about last week, I am going to give myself the freedom to write a shorter post today. Letting go of needing to be perfect is a day-by-day process :)

Today, I would like share a list of a few things that have inspired me recently:

1) But I always think that the best way to know God is to love many things.
~Vincent van Gogh, Dear Theo: An Autobiography of Vincent van Gogh, 1937

2) ” Passion can be defined as the deep response of the soul to life: the freedom to rejoice and weep…(Romans 12:15)…It requires open-hearted, other-centered, reckless involvement”
-Dan Allender

3)“The Lord will fight for you. All you have to do is be still”
-Exodus 14:14

4) Sara at My Frugal Fun life.
She is authentic, bold, and relatable. A friend shared her blog with me, and I have truly enjoyed reading her. Her story is beautiful, challenging, and encouraging.
