Food is my obsession.| Creativity is my passion. | Purpose is my desire.

Spend some time alone every day
Occasionally my mom will FWD me these Mediation emails she subscribes to. She's so great at finding ways to encourage me and sometimes these just say it all.
Rachel by definition means "ewe" or "female sheep." I take great ownership in this, as I consider the symbolism it carries within my faith. While I am flawed, broken and a sinner - a spotted ewe - I am cherished in the eyes of my God, my Shepherd. For Christ says:
"I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me - just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep." John 10:14-15
What an honor to follow such a Shepherd, who laid down His life for me, so that He might overcome death, and in turn promises life to all who follow Him. Though this is not a blog meant to focus on my faith, my relationship with God remains ever present in all that I do.
Food is my obsession. So I'm on a quest to find healthier ways to enjoy it, without sacrificing flavor.
Creativity is my passion. A "Jack of all crafts, and master of none," I’m drawn to anything labeled "DIY." I'm constantly looking for the next creative challenge.
Purpose is my desire. With a longing to lead a meaningful life, and a heart for our suffering world, I need to find purpose in what I do.
