I Look to the Hills
This morning, I didn’t have strength to be poetic. I didn’t have words that sounded polished or put together. I just had a quiet, desperate thought echoing in my heart: “I look to the hills… where does my help come from?” Because let’s be honest, the world can’t help me. People can’t help me. And […]
Gentle Grace for Ordinary Days
Some days don’t feel holy. They feel like unanswered emails, lukewarm coffee, messy counters, and a to-do list that somehow grows instead of shrinks. They don’t come with worship music swelling in the background or a perfectly timed Bible verse that makes everything click. They just… arrive. Quiet. Normal. Ordinary. And for a long time, […]
The Morning I Let Go: A Story of Surrender, Trust, and Jesus
This morning didn’t start with a plan. It didn’t start with a pretty prayer or a perfectly worded request. It started with me – tired, worn down, and out of words. I told Jesus something I don’t usually like to admit: I can’t do this anymore. Not in a dramatic way. Not in a “fix […]
How Will They Know Unless They Are Told?
This scripture always speaks to me – it sits heavy on my heart in the most tender way. Because the truth is… how will people know about Jesus if no one shares Him? I didn’t know. Not really. Not in a life-changing, soul-awakening kind of way – until someone told me. And when they did, […]
Find Your Waters
I once saw a picture of a fish trying to climb a tree. And I just stared at it for a minute… because honestly? That fish felt like me. The idea was simple: a fish isn’t a failure because it can’t climb. It’s just in the wrong place. A fish was made to swim. Put […]
Coming Back to Surrender
This morning, I had such a sweet time with the Lord. Not polished. Not impressive. Just honest. I went before Him in repentance – laying down pride, laying down my own agenda, laying down the subtle ways I try to take control or seek recognition. And in His kindness, He corrected me. Not with harshness… […]
The Beauty of the Latter Glory
There’s a verse that’s been sitting quietly in my heart lately: “The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former… and in this place I will give peace.” ~ Haggai 2:9 I love how God does that – how He drops a single line of Scripture into your spirit and lets […]
The Little Girl Who Tried to Prove She Was Worthy
Some of my earliest memories are when my grandparents lived with us while growing up. It should have been a place of safety. A place where a child feels protected, seen, and loved. But for me, it was the place where I first learned what it felt like to be told I was not enough. […]
When You Don’t Doubt God – You Doubt That It’s For You
I have realized something in my walk with God that has been both freeing and deeply revealing. I don’t struggle with believing that God is able. When I read His Word and see His promises, I don’t question His power. I don’t question His goodness. I don’t question His faithfulness. I know who He is. […]
Treasures in the Darkness
“I will go before you and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron. I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that I, the Lord, who call you by your name, am […]
