Toilet Paper Roll Mirror & Wall Art

I’ve been pinning toilet paper roll projects for months now because, let’s face it…the thought of making something this gorgeous out of bathroom garbage makes our little hearts go pitter-patter, it’s the ultimate rags to riches craft story…but can I just be totally honest for a moment?  The idea of saving rolls for months on […]

January 2014 Desktop Wallpaper

We’re just days away from a brand spankin’ new year, friends, and it’s good to be alive! And warm. It’s been über chilly up in these parts – a record high, I hear – and the snow and ice have been relentless in their coating of branches, roofs and small creatures who care not for […]

Cute Christmas Gifts for Classmates

Remember the cute Merry & Bright goodies from last Christmas?  Well, we have another fun classmate gift idea and printable for you! I had seen these as valentine gifts on Pinterest a while ago, made with a little heart crayon, and then ran into adorable silicon snowflake molds at Meijer a few weeks ago.  Considering […]

The Comparison Game {and Why it’s So Overrated}

I spent most of my adolescent years aching to be someone else.  Any body else. And while I can say that I’ve finally learned to embrace the quirky, awkwardly transparent, people-loving introvert I’ve grown into, I still occasionally stumble into that place of longing for the ability to behave or perform or create like another. […]

{Oh, Holy} Christmas Printable

It is undeniably Winter in these parts; the days seem to be getting shorter and chillier by the minute, and the Christmas spirit is in full swing – although if we made that assessment based on when glittered holiday décor hit craft stores, we’d declare this in September. With the windows tightly closed and the […]

20 Wise Marriage Tips {from a Divorcee}

In the same way we don’t tend to take dieting advice from someone who’s clearly overweight, or business pointers from a company that’s just filed for bankruptcy, we don’t tend to put much stock into marital advice from someone who’s no longer married.  It makes sense, right?  Well, not always. My mom forwarded this to […]

Pumpkin Scones & Thanksgiving Tag Printable

When my hubby called a couple of days ago to say he was on his way home…and was in the mood to bake something yummy {and he was not referring to a baby}…I did what any sugar-lovin’ smart girl would do.  I hit Pinterest in search of something that would fill my house and mouth […]

The Mudway Makeover

We rarely use our front door.  In fact, there is usually something large and obnoxious right in front of the door in the ‘formal’ entrance cove which makes it impossible to open.  Like my keyboard…the acoustics in that little nook are spectacular! The most used entrances to our house are through our back deck door […]

Happy Hallo-Fabulous!

We went to our first Fall picnic with the other families from my hubby’s post last week.  But due to inevitable marital communication discrepancies, I found out just days before that this was in fact a Halloween party.  With children donning costumes. You’ve never seen a woman hit the shelves of craft stores with such […]

Grace and truth were never enemies in the life of Grace and truth
were never enemies in the life of Jesus.

He told the woman caught in adultery:
“Neither do I condemn you…
go and leave your life of sin.”

Mercy.
And honesty.
Together.

This week’s episode is about the rocks we carry—the anger, bitterness, judgment, and wounds we keep rehearsing long after the moment has passed.

Because sometimes the thing crushing our soul…
is the stone we refuse to put down.

Some wounds don’t leave us angry because they were Some wounds don’t leave us angry
because they were the worst thing that happened to us.
Sometimes they stay because they were the moment someone
stood close enough to see our pain… and still did nothing.

This week on the podcast, I’m talking about the rocks we carry—judgment, resentment, bitterness, offense—and the quiet ways they shape our souls over time.

This episode is deeply personal. Tender. Honest.

“Healing isn’t pretending it didn’t hurt. It’s ref “Healing isn’t pretending it didn’t hurt.
It’s refusing to let the wound become your identity.”

This week on the podcast, Dr. Ansonya Burke and I talk about forgiveness, leadership, emotional healing, and the sacred process of becoming whole after hard seasons.

There’s so much wisdom in this one.
Especially for the people quietly carrying more than anyone knows.

Some stories don’t end the way we expected. Some r Some stories don’t end the way we expected.
Some relationships fracture.
Some seasons unravel us completely.

But grace still has a way of writing beautiful endings.

In this deeply honest conversation, my dear friend Dr. Ansonya Burke shares about healing, forgiveness, wholeness, and learning how to release what no longer belongs in your hands.

This episode is tender, wise, and full of the kind of truth that only comes from walking through fire and finding God faithful in it.

Using ONE WORD, let us know how we can be praying Using ONE WORD, let us know how
we can be praying for you today.

He knows the details, we don't have to.

And if you pray for someone else here,
would you give them a 'thumbs-up' to
let them know you prayed for them?

/ / /

Do not be anxious about anything,
but in everything by prayer and supplication
with thanksgiving let your requests be made
known to God. And the peace of God,
which surpasses all understanding, 
will guard your hearts and your
minds in Christ Jesus.

:: Philippians 4:6-7
You don’t get strong alone. Growth lives on the ed You don’t get strong alone.
Growth lives on the edge of discomfort.
And showing up matters more than you think.
