Guest blog by Laci Wright đź’• This week, I have been reading through the book of Romans with a YouVersion plan by UPPERROOM (it’s called “The Mystery Revealed”—I would highly recommend checking it out), and it has been a wonderful experience so far.

weary
If you look through my journals over the past year or two, the adjective used the most is likely “weary”. It’s my go-to word when I do a check-in with my body and my feelings, my automatic response when I put pen to paper to describe where I’m at.
