I can’t remember the last time I cried so much in a week. And it’s only Wednesday. (Also, where did February go?) I thought about skipping today’s post, but felt like I needed to check in and say hi. Cue the music: “It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me” (thank you, Taylor Swift). But … Continue reading Not the problem

Hanging on by a Thread

Instead of wasting our breath comparing and fixing, what if we spent our time comforting and encouraging? That has always been at … Continue reading Hanging on by a Thread

Shake off the Dust
The time has come to shake it off… cue Taylor Swift 😂 It’s time to shake off the dust. “Awake, awake, O Zion, clothe yourself with strength. Put on your garments of splendor, O Jerusalem, the holy city. The uncircumcised and defiled will not enter you again. Shake off your dust; rise up, sit enthroned, … Continue reading Shake off the Dust
