Police. Profound Pride. Passion.
This photo was taken by Jeff Schrier (Chief Photographer at the Saginaw News) during the awe-inspiring funeral for the Trooper from my husband’s State Police post who lost his life suddenly last week. It was one of the most profoundly beautiful, deeply moving, tearful events I have ever experienced.

Pincushion Protea
This amazing blossom – indigenous to South Africa – was handed to me on Sunday by my sweet younger sister as a ‘congrats on becoming an American’ gift, with the words…”You can take the girl out of Africa…but you can’t take Africa out of the girl!”. Amen, sista!

Praise & Prophetic Prayer
Sunday was our little Vineyard church plant’s first anniversary. We hosted Steve Backlund & his team {from Bethel’s School of Supernatural Ministry} and what an amazing evening it was! There were over 90 people from over 8 different churches, and as terrified as I was to lead worship, our little team rocked it out!

Soaking up the first warm day of the season. And by “soaking”…I mean “soaking”.

Pinecones, Pegs & Pistols
In order to bring comfort and encouragement to anyone who thought it might look more like this most days, this is what my fruit bowl looks like today. Don’t be fooled by my occasionally clear table. I saw the surface of it today for the first time in a week. Today, my fruit bowl holds rock-hard limes (way past their prime), the nature-pickings from time outside with daddy, a peg from a new friend’s business card, my sunglasses…and yes, that would be a gun. Pretty, isn’t it? Welcome to the real life of a law-enforcement wife.

Peace
Life is delicious!
