“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, andContinue reading “Hi, You’re on Speakerphone”

Just Breathe
Then the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living person. Genesis 2:7 NLT Last month I was sidelined by a bout with pneumonia. My chest felt pained and heavy, breathing was labored, and exhaustion cameContinue reading “Just Breathe”
At Sea
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11 NLT We are in the waning days of summer and that leaves me with a longing. It has been two years now since I’veContinue reading “At Sea”
Through or Through
My husband enjoys backpacking and hiking. Recently, he and a friend undertook a 100 mile through-hike challenge. They trained for months; tweaking their supplies to make sure they were reaching an optimal weight for their packs. Finding this ratio of what you will need, versus not being without something vital to your survival, is crucialContinue reading “Through or Through”

Biblical Feminism
Last weekend I had the pleasure of attending a women’s only gala with some of my closest friends. The event was the culmination of photographer Jessica Yates’ campaign of 40 over 40. Her mission was to highlight the stories of forty women over the age of 40, and to honor how God has moved inContinue reading “Biblical Feminism”
Turn to the Light
I often joke to my family that I am solar powered. When the daylight hours begin to wan in the fall I have experienced feeling dread; knowing that the deep cold and darkness of winter is coming. The holidays help to keep my spirits up, but in January and February my mild case of seasonalContinue reading “Turn to the Light”
The Table
The holidays are winding down and a new year is dawning. In full transparency I’m going to be open with you about a consistent issue I have in my home. If there is a flat surface available it quickly gets covered up. That being said, my dining table is often inaccessible for the use ofContinue reading “The Table”
