Straight From The Heart: I'm Back!!!

Hey, everyone! My apologies for not keeping you all updated on what has been going on with me lately. Life has been crazy busy and I'm super excited. I am writing just what is on my heart today. My blog posts are usually posted every Tuesday, and I was planning on waiting until this Tuesday to come back to "Molly's Zone, but I couldn't wait. I'm so happy to be back, why should I wait?

I have a lot of cool things going on right now. I feel bad that I didn't formally announce my break; I just kind of left everyone hanging. I have spent these past couple weeks working on a great opportunity with WV SILC (Statewide Independent Living Council). I am working with a partner to put together a college success workshop proposal and it's a dream. College kids and that environment are two things that I am most passionate about other than my writing and blogging, of course. The workshop would be held August 27-28th at Marshall University as part of the Young WV Conference; it has to be done by July 13th and the chosen presenters will be chosen on July 15th. Super, super excited about that. Please keep me in your prayers. We are still trying to figure out what exactly the workshop would entail, but the actual Powerpoint portion is near done,there just needs to be a few final touches added. The rest of the workshop is purely interactive, which is just what I  want to do; get students involved. I'm so excited! 

I also have plans for a college success video script. No set filming date yet, but I am working on it. I wanted to appear at the NRS college transition camp  in that way this year, but it may not be done by then. I will keep everyone posted! I was not sure if there was even going to be a video as I was not sure how it was supposed to be done, but everything seems to be getting squared away after all. I'd love to use that for SILC in the future. Oh, I'm also going to be published in the summer edition of their newsletter (late July). I'm super happy! My 3rd time getting published overall.

Aside from all the work craziness, I have decided to start a book review/movie review blog on Tumblr (not sure who is familiar with that, it's another blogging site.) I want to incorporate blogging into my fun time. I either want to call it, "The M Chronicles", or "The M Scene", I'm not sure yet. Which one sounds better? I'm currently reading the first book in the "Twilight" series. I'm as far as chapter 15, and there are 24 chapters, so I'm almost finished. Almost! 

Well, I just want to thank all of my supporters for keeping up with my blogs. Again, I'm sorry it's been a while. I will be posting another blog on Tuesday, just to get back into my normal routine. Until Tuesday...

The Source of Everlasting Strength

"Life may try to weigh you down, but never let it wear you out." I love that the Lord placed that particular phrase on my heart while thinking about how certain circumstances in our lives can become truly overwhelming. I never enjoy shining a light on all that I face physically, but I will today because it fits well within the message.  Many of you may remember that I experienced COVID last September; as a result, I have dealt with lasting fatigue that carries no reasonable medical explanation, although I am absolutely certain that  living with both cerebral palsy and PCOS may play a significant role. It's now difficult to exert any amount of energy at all. Completing even the tiniest of tasks often feels the same as climbing Mount Everest. Some of those days it seems as if everything weighs me down and wears me out. (writing honestly) I know many who struggle with SO much more than I do. I know I'm never alone in that battle. Maybe you're experiencing one of thos...

Things To Remember When You Feel Like Quitting On God

Having the opportunity to serve the Lord through writing faith-based short stories and devotionals will forever be my greatest joy.  I have traveled along on the writing journey for about ten years now, yet it would be untruthful to tell you that I've never felt like quitting.  I know I have.  Have you ever felt that way? Are you in a season of distraction or discouragement?  The Lord placed this thought and those questions on my heart because I know that many others who remain faithful in serving the Lord in their own respective way are met with same opposition from Satan.  Sometimes it's difficult for you not to feel distracted and discouraged---as if the joy that you once held in your heart is somehow nowhere to be found. The good news is that while opposition will never go away on this side of Heaven, there are things to remember and tools that we can use to fight off those fiery darts and keep on keepin' on! (One of my all time favorite phrases) Today, I wa...

Molly's Morning Thoughts: Are You Inviting Jesus In Or Shutting Him Out?

  A Word From Molly : I'm a little late on sharing a thought from yesterday morning but I couldn't go without giving it a place on the blog. I love that the Lord put this on my heart to write because it is SO true. I may turn this into a new blog segment, we shall see, but I hope this speaks to your heart as much as it did mine. Molly's Zone will celebrate its 10th birthday on Monday and I still feel so blessed to have the opportunity to write for Jesus. Molly's Zone has been a little quiet (life has been quite interesting lately) but I cannot wait to share more all throughout the month of September.  I woke up early this morning thinking about something that the Lord placed on my heart I LOVE podcasts & decided to try something new on Spotify the other day & listened to an episode about God's power in the midst of impossible situations and it got me wondering: How often are we guilty of attempting to take on a situation that is too much for us to handl...
