He was supreme in the beginning and—leading the resurrection parade—he is supreme in the end. From beginning to end he’s there, towering far above everything, everyone. So spacious is he, so roomy, that everything of God finds its proper place in him without crowding. Not only that, but all the broken and dislocated pieces ofContinue reading “A Pep Talk for Your Bad Week”

Life After Babies
I am a total sucker for the “On This Day” feature on Facebook. Each day, it shows you what happened on the same day in years past. It’s fun to read old blog posts, cringe at terrible status updates about my “difficult” teenage years, and of course, seeing photos of my boys as babies. It’sContinue reading “Life After Babies”
The Art of Motherhood
A little over a year ago, I started taking picture of my son’s art. In case you didn’t know, or if you needed a warning, having children means you receive pounds of artwork. From everywhere.

I received some money that year, and I decided theContinue reading “The Reality of Being Poor”
2016: What Worked & What Certainly Did Not
You may remember back in November when I wrote about my constant eye twitching. I tried to relax a bit, sleep more, and give myself space to rest, but truthfully, none of those things really happened. I had a twitch in my eye up until Christmas Day. Yesterday, I got real with myself. I decidedContinue reading “2016: What Worked & What Certainly Did Not”
Brave Because He Is Mighty
In August, I knew we were on the brink of chaos. It was a weird feeling; we had been in a season of buckling down to survive for the past two years, but the assurance that God was going to bring us a season of flourishing was overwhelming. We didn’t know a thing, we justContinue reading “Brave Because He Is Mighty”
