Excuses, Updates and an ATW Guest Post

Contrary to what a lack of posts for almost a week may depict, I’m alive and semi-well.  Emphasis on semi. Our wee babes and I are all fighting colds, a sinus infection and an ear infection {nicely distributed between the three of us}.  Life is peachy!  Speaking of peaches…our little tree is dropping gorgeous, juicy peaches daily and I’ve been… Read More

At The Well: Guest Post {2 Ears, 1 Mouth}

I get that mixed up on occasion.  I tend to live the Picasso life…as though my face boasted two mouths and one little ear.  And I mean little. The book of James is a fabulous {challenging…convicting} reminder to tend to the often malfunctioning filter on my flapping tongue, and to open my ears instead… {read this guest post here}

At The Well: Guest Post {Perfect Peace}

Yes, you’ve seen this photo before!  I love it!  And I couldn’t wait until this guest post was published, so I turned it into August’s desktop wallpaper and shared it 2 weeks ago! Impatient…who me? Do you struggle with trusting God?  With every thing? With the big things?  And the small?  And the everyday, seemingly-trivial details of life? Marinade your… Read More

Here’s a good reminder for you: At The Well: Guest Post   Want another reminder to help keep your heart nestled safely in the hands of God, rather than caught up in the tizzy of… Read More

At The Well: Guest Post {The Ultimate Plan Review}

I’m a born list maker.  A passionate, type-A list maker. The need for uncluttered organization in my life is evidenced by the sheer quantity of baskets and totes I own.  They neatly hold my household together behind the scenes. Purging, cleaning and organization thrill me to no end.  Maybe it’s the sense of peace it provides in the daily whirl… Read More

Revisit a previous post of mine {one of my favorite 25, in fact} right here at Inner Fulfillment today! “A Godly woman is one who possesses inner peace and tranquility: she doesn’t have to prove herself to anyone. Neither does she depend on recognition from others. Hers is an inner contentment and satisfaction based not on accomplishments, position, or authority;… Read More

The enemy tempts us. Then shame convinces us to hi The enemy tempts us.
Then shame convinces us to hide.

But God’s first response to human failure wasn’t condemnation.
It was a question: "Where are you?"
Not because He didn’t know.
But because healing requires that we name where we are,
and freedom comes as we choose to bravely step out of hiding.

Why do we hide? Often it starts with something sma Why do we hide?
Often it starts with something small,
a moment of humiliation, rejection, or exposure.
And over time we learn how to protect ourselves.
We perform. We blend in. We build armor.

But long before any of our stories began,
God asked the first humans a question
that still echoes today: "Where are you?"

In this episode, I share a story from growing up in Namibia and explore the quiet ways shame can shape our lives, and the courageous invitation God extends to step out of hiding.
