There is a story in the Bible about a group of friends that picked up their friend, who had been lame his whole life, and carried him to a house where Jesus was teaching, in order for him to be healed. I was listening to a sermon being preached on this story the other day, […]
I had such a vivid example of childlike faith last week. I was in the car with my curly girl, and we were on a little roadtrip on our day off. On the way back, it was beyond naptime, so she dozed off in her carseat in about 30 seconds. (I remember car naps being […]
Hey y’all, I’m back! Happy October! If you missed it, I wrote last month that I was going to take the month of September off to have a little end of summer sabbatical to rest, seek God and spend time with my family. I am so excited to be back, but I LOVED taking a […]
So the kids are a little over 2 now and are super proud of all they have learned…among their repertoire, they can sing “Jesus Loves Me” on their own and often do, at the top of their lungs, no matter where we happen to be – Walmart, park, pool, it makes zero difference to them! […]
Hey everyone! Happy Friday to you, wherever you are 😊 If you read my recipe post on Tuesday, you read that I just finished my fourth round of the Whole30 challenge! Woot! (and there was much rejoicing!) Actually, if I’m being quite honest, this one wasn’t that hard because I had been keeping most of […]
Today, I want y’all to imagine you have a friend. You’ve had this person in your life for forever it seems; they are a given. A constant in your life. You can hardly remember a time when they weren’t there for you. This person is amazing – you can pick up the phone and call […]
Have you ever had a moment where the enormity of eternity just washes over you like a big, thundering, drowning wave? I have been thinking a lot about grace recently, and reading about it, and watching sermons on it. When you really stop to think about what Jesus did on the cross, as we are […]
I was sitting at the table during naptime on Monday and doing my personal Bible study, and it was super, crazy windy out – it started the night before, and was almost shoving our car off the mountain on our way home. It was whipping the trees around, and was whistling through the breezeway outside […]
What is love? (now you’re singing the song, aren’t you? “What is love? Baby don’t hurt me….”) For the next two weeks leading up to Valentine’s Day, we are going to talk about it: love! It’s a word we ache to hear. It’s a word we overuse. It’s a word that signifies something amazing and […]
Confession: I became a Christian very early in life but in all honesty was NOT really super excited to do things “God’s way” because I was afraid that would be boring. My misconception was that being a Christian meant you were goody-goody and sure, you had your stuff together, but your life wouldn’t be fun […]
