A truly established heart will stand firm during trials.  God's word is a strengthener. It guides, it directs, it brings peace in every circumstance.Every house has a builder, but God is the builder of everything (Hebrews)My thoughts -God appointed me to be the builder of my home.  God will give me the strength during the …

To the baby who horrifically died.

I have to talk about it. It is eating me alive.  This past week a horrific crime happened to a sweet, innocent 16-month old baby. I won't go into the details other than my heart broke. Children are the most precious gift that anyone could every ask for. They are the purest example of Christ's …

Family of 6-WHAT?!

This blog was formed for so many purposes. One purpose is to share where I am as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend. I fully believe we are called to be vulnerable with each other and with that vulnerability brings humility, sacrifice, strength and so much more. Of course not everything needs to be …

John 8

I recently joined a Thursday morning women's connect group. Each Thursday, a speaker brings a devotional from scripture, and then each table has discussion questions (my favorite part). I've been twice and find it very fulfilling, plus, my children really love going to the childcare area (except my littlest) ha. Two weeks ago, a lovely …

Spiritual Warfare

I believe spiritual warfare looks differently for everyone. Our common enemy is the devil who would love nothing more than to belittle, destroy relationships, cause chaos in your home, diminish our confidence and more. Spiritual warfare in my house has been going on for about three weeks. One of those weeks we all suffered from …

A Prayer – December 29, 2023

December 19, 2023 Prayer

God, you are so good. You are good to me during the sweetest moments and through the hard moments. You are with me when I am at my knees, in complete surrender, broken, and feeling derailed. You know my every thought before I even speak them into existence. Yet, you long for me to share …

Bubble, Bubble, Jesus

Last week, I decided that I needed a mental health week. We took Monday - Thursday off for much-needed family fun and field trips that weren't centered around school, but rest. Over the last few months, my life: conversations, activities, books, etc. have all been centered around homeschooling. All of it. I was/ am feeling …

A Little Refresh

Hi, welcome to a little bit of encouragement. I hope you know that you are loved, valued, and known! ...There is always someone who is in need of encouragement. When our cups are full and they begin to overflow the encouragement and light pours into others. It's like a domino effect. This week, we are …

Living Intentionally

I'm in awe of what the Holy Spirit is doing. You often can discern whether or not if you're on the right path, the narrow or the wide by simple keeping alert with a watchful eye. The enemy will try to throw everything he's got to belittle, deminish, make you question who you are, why …
