Coming Back to the Heart of Worship
Where it’s all about You, it’s all about You, Jesus. I was just getting ready to type this announcement and this song popped into my head. What is it about ‘The Heart of Worship’ by Matt Redman that always seems to ring true and never gets old. The Heart of Worship When the music fadesAll […]

The Deck and Me
Today I stained my deck. It seems mundane. A task we ‘have’ to do when wood gets worn and unseemly. And it had already been a long day. My mother had gone into surgery this morning for a massive tumor and hysterectomy. The same surgery I had just gone through in January. Four months now […]

Thankfulness in the Midst of Trouble: Lift Your Eyes Up to the Mountains

It’s been a day. 🥴 ‣ How was yours? I spent mine with online Church, some rest, and finally starting to prep for my surgery in a couple weeks. I’m starting some lists at least. Where’s my ‘Hyster Sisters’ at?! ‣ A rushed hysterectomy during COVID is not on my must-do bucket list for 2021 […]

Becoming Authentic Behind the Smile
Your smile.☺ ◦ What do you hide behind it? Pain, fear, anger, jealousy, trauma, illness, sadness…? Are you authentic with those around you? Selah. ◦ I was taught to hide. To not say certain things or it could bring them on. Or maybe it would reveal I had no faith. In my mind, that was […]

30-Day Gratitude Challenge
Grateful. 🙏 ◈ Today we are starting a “30-day Gratitude Challenge” in our homeschool. My sister started one about 10 days ago on Facebook so I joined her. It’s been an amazing way to start or end the day, focusing on what we are truly thankful for instead of the mess going on around us. […]
