- I commit to being more diligent in my time with the Lord. Setting aside time to intentionally talk to God and read His Word.
- I commit to being more honest, with myself and also with others. I wouldn't say that I am a dishonest person, but sometimes I tend to "sugar-coat" when I need to be firm and forward.
- I commit to prayer, not the "Oh Lord I need You to..." kind of prayer, but more of a "I long to spend time in Your presence" kind of prayer.
- I commit to loving better. I long to love more like the Lord loves, unconditionally and without expectation of reciprocity.
- I commit to being more active. Whenever I am intentional about my health I feel more motivated to tackle other areas of my life.
- I commit to eating better/drinking more water. I want to be the kind of example to Lynnlee that she can model as she gets older.
- and finally I commit to relying on the Lord to help me in my pursuit of these things. I know that without His grace and mercy each day none of these things would be possible.
A butterfly's life is about transformation... this is a collection of ponderings from a life that is being transformed by the grace of God. May my heart be like that of a butterfly, willing and ready to transform into something more beautiful.
I am a woman whose heart yearns for realness. Realness for myself, but also realness for women around me, for I know with realness comes freedom! I long for greater confidence in Christ and hope to inspire those I come into contact with to feel the same. This is a blog about my journey to transform into something more beautiful, something more real, like a butterfly. These are ponderings from a willing heart.

I woke up this morning and realized that it was Monday. (this happens to me once in a while since I have no real reason to know what day it is!) Then another realization hit me... it is August 1st. It is the beginning of a new week, beginning of a new month. I felt inspired to start fresh this morning. As I began my quiet time with God I was inspired once again to make some commitments...
