Hi! I’m Julie.
This is the section where I’m supposed to tell you all about myself. But as I sat down and started to think about what to say, all I could think was: “I’m just me.”
I’m truly nobody special—just a God’s kid trying to make her way in an ungodly world (and I will freely admit that some days are better than others!). Like you, I am many different things to many different people: “wife” to my husband; “Mommy” to my two girls; “daughter” to my parents; “CPA” to my business clients.
But over the past year, it has really begun to hit home with me just how easy it is to get caught up in our various roles and to forget about the most important role of our Christian life: child of the one and only true King.
It’s even easier to forget how that truth should impact our everyday lives. And as this all began to sink in, and as I began to really dig into the richness of God’s Word and to experience His truths firsthand in my life, God planted in me a deep desire to share with others that which He has so graciously shared with me.
So here I am—nobody special, yet somebody precious in the sight of the One Who matters—humbly offering up any blessings of wisdom or insight God might impart to me, in the hopes that it might somehow in turn bless others.
It’s my prayer that all who come here might find refreshment and encouragement as we seek to focus on what truly matters while living out the lives God has designated for each of us.
“So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering.” Romans 12:1a MSG
