I had the privilege of sharing at our Wonderstruck Women’s Bible Study this morning on the Wonder of Rest! ❤ Here is what I shared... “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven…” – Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NIV84) In this fast-paced, technological world we live in, it’s easy to stay … Continue reading Overwhelmed by God’s Rest

If not, maybe you just came out of a storm, or there’s a new one brewing in the distance. The truth is, we all have storms to face. Not one of … Continue reading Stay the Course
