I’ve been thinking a lot about valleys this week. Feeling like I’m in one; walking through one. Wanting to reflect, be curious and aware, and try to define it. What kind of valley is it this time?

not by works, by faith
Guest blog by Laci Wright 💕 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. I’ve read through Romans before, but I’ve been in awe of the … Continue reading not by works, by faith

Alabaster is such a unique word for me, as I usually have an action word that I’m focused on each year. It feels like a deep well, and I am excited … Continue reading A Radiant Vessel (in the making)
