I had the honor of sharing a few thoughts at Liberty Church on Sunday and wanted to post it here for any that missed it. ❤ I believe God wants you to know that He’s with you and He’s for you. He has not forsaken you or forgotten you; you are not abandoned or alone. … Continue reading Overcoming Defeat

Face the Pain
I received an advanced reader copy of The Complicated Heart: Loving Even When It Hurts by Sarah Mae from B&H Publishing; this is my honest review. This book is a beautiful story. It's Sarah's story; it's her mom's story. I love a good story. I will say there are some hard-to-read parts of their story. … Continue reading Face the Pain
The Yoke on Me
Matthew 11:28-30 has been everywhere lately. I'm starting to get the hint and am processing what's packed into these 3 verses. Countless books and commentaries have been written on them.

It's really repetitive but it usually comes to mind when there's an instrumental … Continue reading The Father Who Sees
Shadows (Part 2)
I thought I had learned my lesson about the shadows. After all, I wrote a blog about it. 😉 "Don't mistake this darkness for something other than His shadow. It's not separation. You are under His wings." Trouble and trials remind us to take refuge in the shadow of His wings. "Have mercy on me, … Continue reading Shadows (Part 2)
The Father Who Hears
"Get to know this kind Father." - Melissa Helser I love this quote! One of my focuses this summer is to dig in to the Word and discover another layer of the Father's heart. To learn more about His character. To get to know Him better. I've been reading this week about the life of … Continue reading The Father Who Hears
