Watch Him Turn a Sea into a Highway
One of my favorite worship songs of all time is “Graves Into Gardens” by Elevation Worship. The bridge is my favorite part, and it goes like this: . You turn mourning to dancing You give beauty for ashes You turn shame into glory You’re the only one who can . You turn graves into Continue reading

Hello and welcome to the future! It has officially been (a little over) 200 days since my last time capsule blog. If you are familiar with this phrase, isn’t it crazy we’re here already?!

A Lesson In Love from Mr. & Mrs. Day (Repost)

I Am Not a Purple Unicorn
The other day I was listening to the Workin’ On it podcast with Meghan & Ryan Trainor, and their guest, Zach Pincince. At one point in the conversation, Zach said something that stuck out to me.

While sitting in the jacuzzi, I remembered I had an appointment with my chiropractor scheduled for the following day. “What a great week for my body!” I remarked. Come Monday afternoon, I thought, I Continue reading

How I Choose My “Word” for the Year
Earlier this week I shared my reflection on my word for 2022: believe. As we move into 2023, as we get back into our routines (or perhaps start new ones), we are all given the opportunity to find a new word—or perhaps our first word. To find the word we can cling to over the Continue reading

The Year of “Believe”
Typically, I can remember when I was given my word for the year. I can remember that moment of that’s it! So I keep that memory close, and then at the end of the year, knowing all that I didn’t know before, I like to reflect on it. I like to think back to when Continue reading
