It’s an odd thing: to be in a space that feels all too familiar, but you’re not the same person you were back then. You’ve grown, you’ve picked up some tools along the way, but here you are again. Same pain, similar story, different location. But this ending will be different than the last … Continue reading Finding My Voice

Even If
On the last Wednesday of each month, I have the amazing privilege of sharing a guest blog with you. This month, I’m excited to bring you this piece from an Instagram friend, Joanna Busby.

This is my heart each week; I … Continue reading Let Us (Also, Lettuce)

We were bridesmaids in each other's weddings, and though we've lived apart from each other for years, we've been able to … Continue reading Trusting God Through the Waiting

It's incredibly easy to feel misunderstood in this day and age. Especially during this season of sheltering in place, of life as we know it coming to a screeching halt. I believe as humans we long to be understood. … Continue reading He Understands
Mighty Fortress
I've been singing the opening line of "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God"... and only those title words because I haven't memorized the rest. The words are rich and deep, thank you Martin Luther, but for now it's the opener that's on repeat. I've been thinking a lot lately about how God is a strong … Continue reading Mighty Fortress
