Sticks and Stones: Lacking Confidence
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2011/11/lacking-confidence.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Wednesday, November 23, 2011. As I posted a few days ago, I am starting a new job. I'm nervous. I am honored and humbled that someone saw my gifts and talents and wanted to put me and (and the gifts and talents) to work. I'm apprehensive. I'm a little anxious. I am unsure. Can I really do this? Thinking positive thoughts. I CAN do this! I wonder if it is alright if I just smile and nod and act like I know what I am doing). You will. be. awesome. Personal Pizza...

Sticks and Stones: Writing
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2011/10/writing.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Sunday, October 23, 2011. I have been writing out my life journey, or attempting to. I write. I delete. I get stuck. I write. I stop. I have never done this before and it has been really refreshing. It also reveals of all the pieces that God has put together, in His order, in His time, and in the way that He wants. I think I will conclude typing out my story with this: . God isnt through with us . Praise Him! Nice to meet you! Monday, October 24, 2011. For Kin...

Sticks and Stones: The Emotional Mask
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2011/10/emotional-mask.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Tuesday, October 25, 2011. I bet you didn't know that I am a Semi-Professional Emotional Masker. It is true. I started perfecting this talent during my childhood and I think I am pretty darn good at it. I am uncertain as to why I started to hide my emotions. I guess revealing true feelings is a risk. It made/makes me feel vulnerable. (Kinda like blogging). Sadly, the question of "How are you? Is this blog post risky for me? I have begun to take small. Life is ...

Sticks and Stones: Walking Miracle
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2012/05/walking-miracle.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Saturday, May 5, 2012. It feels great to be on the OTHER side of Ashlyn's brain surgery! It was difficult. It was emotionally, physically, and spiritually draining. I have no idea how many times I prayed in the days leading up to her surgery, the day of her surgery, and after her surgery. Did I say, it was difficult? I can't even explain how hard it was to see our precious daughter like this:. The day of her surgery. It brought me to tears. She recovered quick...

http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2012/02/im-not-good-enough.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Wednesday, February 1, 2012. I have a case of the "I'm-not-good-enoughs." I hate that.

My low self-esteem is making a come back.seriously? I am in my thirties and I still deal with this? Grow up, Jamie! Haha I hate to tell you. you are you! I have learned to love my introverted self! I love YOUR introverted self!

Sticks and Stones: Legacy
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2012/01/legacy-conference.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Tuesday, January 3, 2012. Sharing my story and leaving a legacy. I have definitely been through some seasons that weren't so beautiful but with God's grace and mercy, He has turned those valleys into something amazing, something just that, beautiful. God is really going to have to do a work in me and shatter the shy, introvert Jamie. The Jamie that doesn't share. The Jamie that doesn't take off the emotional mask. The Jamie that is timid. So proud of you Jamie!

Sticks and Stones: Ironic Life of Swimming
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2011/12/ironic-life-of-swimming.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Sunday, December 11, 2011. Ironic Life of Swimming. I felt more comfortable in the water than on land. I remember getting up in what seemed like the middle of the night to get to early morning swim practice before school started. The sky was dark and I had to brush the snow off my little Honda Accord. I remember walking outside after long evening swim practices, the sky was dark and snow would be on the ground. My hair literally froze. This was my daily menu:.

Sticks and Stones: Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2012/01/now-i-lay-me-down-to-sleep.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Sunday, January 8, 2012. Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep. Last night I fell asleep as I was praying for my husband, my family, our church, and thanking God for all of His wonderful blessings. At first I was thinking, ' oh great, not again, I fell asleep before I finished praying. But then I thought, ' how beautiful, I fell asleep while praying. I am pretty sure that God hears our prayers even if we don't conclude with "amen.". I am so glad you wrote this post.

Sticks and Stones: Comparison
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2012/01/comparison.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Saturday, January 14, 2012. I have struggled lately with comparing myself to others: personality traits, outward appearance, material possessions, talents, etc. Thesaurus.com defines compare as "to examine in contrast.". Hold acandle to, inspect. Match up, measure. Set against,set side by side, size up, stack up against, study. Weigh, weigh againstanother. It also has an added note on the site. It reads: compare.

Sticks and Stones: Hope
http://jamiedepoy.blogspot.com/2012/01/hope.html
Glass Houses, Bare Feet, and Burning Bushes. Friday, January 20, 2012. Last week I was able to sit down with a friend and we swapped stories, our life journeys, our mountains and valleys. We traded stories of emotional battle scars, battle scars that have made us into the women that we are today. I could see my friend's pain as she tearfully shared. I felt her pain. I could relate.
