…and our first quarantined Easter! And, I pray, last. Not because it was a bad weekend… it was anything but. It’s the weekend we get to celebrate Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection – the fact that God came to dwell perfectly in a human, died for our sins, so that we could live freely for …
Morning. Not stupid early, but not late morning, it’s 8:30am and your eyelids open after a solid, undisturbed 8 hour sleep. You smile to yourself, feeling that euphoric, passionate, life-is-good-because-God-is-good emotion that translates to excitement to spend time with Jesus. You know He’s going to meet you where you are– which happens to be your …
All I can think about right now is hitting my pillow. I hate sounding dramatic, but my eyelids are so heavy and my whole body is exhausted from not stopping all day. And that could easily be for nothing. I could easily work this body hard and fast for a single purpose: my own feelings …
…that life is all about the “little moments?” Romans 12:10 “Be devoted to one another in love. Honour one another above yourselves.” I have written about it countless times. And I think about it all the time. But sometimes, in the heat of a moment, it doesn’t happen. In a moment when… I tiredly choose to watch …

In many ways, I have fallen for the trap of productivity being a god, and productivity itself being my purpose. 2 Thessalonians 3:11 We hear that some among …
I wrote this poem on my break at work today when the Holy Spirit prompted awakening in me. My soul has been a little sleepy, but He never fails to alert me. When we turn to His face, we understand. When we look to His grace, we have a plan. When I’m afraid I’m alone, …
Greetings, friends! I’m trying to put words to a euphoria I’ve been feeling and known for a long time. Here’s something I KNOW: There is so much power in the way Jesus uses prayer. I think often the phrase “there is power in prayer” confuses us. My beautiful Maddie and I talked about this last …
HELLO ALL. So, NGL, I am super proud of this recipe. Just ask my roomies. Today, whilst making it and checking the freezer multiple times to check its state of frozenness, I was impossibly giddy and putting the tray of ice cream in their faces, hoping they would find the whole process as fascinating as …
We’ve all paid more than we hoped to for a delicious coffee. Watched the till climb from 5.25 to 6.99 for that soy, pump of raspberry, and extra espresso shot. What if I told you there are ways to order still delicious drinks for sometimes half the price? Read on to find out how to …
Hi my friends!! Ever since I was little, I have loved sweet potatoes. They were something my mom only made on Thanksgiving and Easter, and I remember thinking that that was the only time one could buy sweet potatoes, because otherwise of course my mom would make them much more often! Haha. Well, at some …
