We got some not-so-great news on Sunday night. And a few more frustrating things happened on Monday. Little things, but they add up. So Monday night, the following unfolded.

Times of Refreshing
We are officially Pennsylvania residents!! It has been quite the journey to get to this place... lots of trusting, lots of waiting.

We're rushing and hurrying through our days, flustered and overwhelmed, and God is calling us to slow down and rest in His love. … Continue reading You are Loved
