deeper love still
I’ve been doubting God’s love for me. It all started at a worship night about a month ago. After receiving prayer over ministries turning into prayer over my sight, I walked back to my seat, redirecting my thoughts and attention back to worship. As the music played, in my head I saw the cover of…

Here is your anointing oil.
A friend asked how she could be praying for me this week, and my response perfectly incapsulates the season I’m in, as I imagine myself tucked in fetal position at the bottom of a door as glass plates shatter around me. Is it safe to say I feel attacked? As I arrived at my son’s…

We can keep on waiting.
At the ripened age of 30 something, I have finally figured out that maybe everything isn’t a kosher as I’ve always thought. For one, it took me seven years to figure out that maybe the reason I don’t love listening to the hip music my husband likes to listen to in the car is actually…

Sitting with an old friend.
You know when you haven’t seen an old friend in what has felt like ages, and suddenly you have the chance to sit across the table from them and actually bring them up to present and pick up where you left off? The whole drive to that small corner table at the coffee shop, you’re…

To the one who has been feeling the earth shift.
I’ve been feeling like I just can’t keep up lately. Not the kind of can’t keep up where things just are sort’ve pushed back a little and eventually you’ll catch up and everything will be okay. I’ve been feeling a deep aching and grieving, because the things that I can’t keep up with are bringing…

Because we are really actually more broken than I think we realize, and American Christianity can feel more like a synonym for the…

at the foot of the broom bush / even if it’s crawling
Fun fact: I love how detailed the Lord is to include specific trees through out the Bible. I tend to like my books full of the juicy deets. Make those sentences the length of three paragraphs, please. I want to read and be entering into what I’m reading. I want the perfect words as the…

Coming out of our shells.
There are still so many moments I want to give it all up. Not in a suicidal way. Just the introverted turned extrovertish. Today, the small voice that tries to beckon me back into the quiet corners of the room attempted to lure me back to sleep, all the while simply changing Emmy’s diaper. Things…

So you need something to drink
In December, I took a whole month of work off to rest and spend time with my family. I remember my friend messaging me a week into it, asking me how I was feeling, to which I responded that rest is hard. I had to rewire my brain to be still and be okay with…

Busy minds, restful hearts.
“Whenever my busy thoughts were out of control, the soothing comfort of your presence calmed me down and overwhelmed me with delight.” Ps 94:19 My thoughts have been lack of gravity lately. Whether battling those lies that threaten to isolate me leading up to my speaking at our church women’s conference, the heaviness of having…
