The last couple of Sundays I’ve finally been able to make it to church. I always treasure these free Sunday mornings. Being in a space that is hungry for God and eagerly welcomes His presence refreshes my heart like nothing else. I am so grateful for the people who live out their faith so purelyContinue reading “Than a Thousand Elsewhere”

What is the Church?
This article was originally written by my sweet papa for the Pals Magazine in Cyprus. But it was too good not to share. Enjoy! Question. Somebody invites you to come with them to their church. What’s the first thing that pops into your head? If you answer with a resounding ‘absolutely not!’, I bet there’sContinue reading “What is the Church?”
The Creator God
As Christians, one of our fundamental beliefs is that God is the Creator of everything. You and I included. To some is incredible, to some laughable, and to others scary. The other day in our girls’ bible study, a friend touched on John 1, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was withContinue reading “The Creator God”
Running
In Genesis 16 there is a story of a slave woman, Hagar, who ran away from her mistress. And right in the middle of her running God met her and asked her, “…where have you come from, and where are you going?”- Genesis 16:7 I often see people running away from problems, I am guiltyContinue reading “Running”
The Fortress for My Flustered Self
19.11.19 Ahhhhhhhhhhh. The last few days I have been too busy for my own good. Between work, meetings, appointments, trying to keep up with my friends, it’s been a lot. In general, I’ve been feeling a need to “be still”, to slow down a bit, to pray more, to spend time with God, but it’sContinue reading “The Fortress for My Flustered Self”
How to Make a Flax Egg
Flax eggs! One of my favorite vegan substitutes for baking! Some how the consistency always comes out spot on! And to top it off, it’s cheap! One 200g bag can be as low as 0.90€ cents! Yay. The only problem is that I have yet to find a place where they sell flax meal. (IfContinue reading “How to Make a Flax Egg”
Cleaning the Temple
20.9.10 Tonight is our first performance of the season, Swan Lake! I’m so excited! But quite nervous… maybe a bit more than I’d like to be, haha. But I suppose that’s normal. Today I was reading Matthew 21; it describes the time when Jesus cleared out the temple of all the sellers and money exchangers.Continue reading “Cleaning the Temple”
My People-Pleasing Self
12.8.19 It is August 12th, 2019, the day before my 3rd season with the Estonian National Ballet begins!Ugh, the day before any season starts it feels like Christmas Eve. I am so excited! I cannot wait! I don’t want this feeling to go away. I feel like I could run, or fly- take on anything!Continue reading “My People-Pleasing Self”
Unforsaken
6.5.19 The way God loves us is just amazing! His heart for us is beautiful. We have strayed so far from His original plan for us, and yet that hasn’t deterred His love from us in the slightest. We were created to be loved and to love. To be loved by Him- He has faithfullyContinue reading “Unforsaken”
Masterpiece
02/02/2019 (This was written in a time when I had a desire to change companies. I thought I needed a bit of a fresh start. I am glad to say that I am no longer looking for a new job, but I’m very happy with where I am at.) Auditions, auditions, auditions…. I think oneContinue reading “Masterpiece”
