Dear Bride of Christ, I write this today in brokenness and any bit of humility or ounce of grace I possess; in all the loud of the crowd reaching a fever pitch; in all the doom and the gloom, the upheaval and unhinged alive in our midst; in all the who-even-knows-what-anymore and all the who's… Continue reading Get Alone and Get to Know The Only One (Who Knows) -An Open Letter

Seeing 2020
As we each look forward to moving into a new year, leaving 2020 and all its *glory* far, far behind, we may feel a need to rush blindly ahead with a quickness: tackling new projects and goals with gusto, rewriting and righting our wrongs, running from our yesterday into a better tomorrow by seizing every… Continue reading Seeing 2020
The God We Go To
God cannot be placed merely on the periphery. He wants to be smack dab in the midst of you and me. Neither is God a last resort. He is the first we seek in order to know, to understand, to guide, and to order aright. He stands alone in knowledge and power, unlimited resources and… Continue reading The God We Go To
Anniversaries and The Only Peace
So today, the big guy and I celebrate 24 years of marriage 👩‍❤️‍👨 Yay us! Now, it's true I make a decent deal of my wedding anniversary every year. It's definitely got much to do with the way we started out and how we should’ve never lasted. (But, God!) But it’s also because, as time… Continue reading Anniversaries and The Only Peace
My Story – Through Him
(This is the final post of three in a series titled "My Story". If you're curious, here's one and two.) So, my last post ended with me figuring out that after fifteen years of living my life in Jesus, I only really loved Him like I'd loved my family and friends... a whole heck of… Continue reading My Story – Through Him
My Story – In Him
(This is the second post in a series of three. Feel free to catch up here.) So last post we left off with me in college, stewing in the swirling piles of wreckage and shame I'd caused, yet also covered over quite (in)sufficiently with my masks and plenty of anger... Messy, Wrecked, and Puzzled Shortly… Continue reading My Story – In Him
My Story – Before Him
A preface… Since this is a blog about where my heart and God’s story collide, what could be a better backdrop than my own background, including original and subsequent collisions? It’s probably overdo. That said, these next few posts are kinda winding and long because, by nature, life stories cover whole lives. Or, lives up… Continue reading My Story – Before Him
Be Thou (My vision for 2020 and beyond)
Be Thou my vision when blind is my sight. Be Thou a lamp when dark is the night. Be Thou my companion when I feel all alone. Be Thou my hope when I have not my own. Be Thou, Lord, an anchor. Be Thou, God, my strength. Be Thou, Friend, my treasure in the dreariest… Continue reading Be Thou (My vision for 2020 and beyond)
A Love Story: From College and Beyond
A look back five whole years ago now... College Move-in Day is nearly upon us. The day I leave a part of myself to begin the best parts of himself. And, by now, it may be clear there’s been a small struggle, which makes me wonder and ponder and ask, “Why?” Which always makes me think… Continue reading A Love Story: From College and Beyond
