  • A crazy Monday this has been but for good reasons ! Chilled most of the eve yesterday after getting back from a much needed girls camping getaway ⛺️ 💕. Such a refreshing time. Even the cold. Something humbling yet enjoyable about waking up and seeing outside right there + not being able to feel your toes through 2 pair of socks 😂. The tent gave us trouble and the grounds were damp so starting a fire was a task BUT we made it !!!! Always leave time with her edified, convicted & in stitches at the hilariousnessss of yet another new season of life ! And so I realize yet again - strength for persevering is bolstered by community. It’s a joy to be able to shoulder one another’s burdens together. I want to do this less selectively; less driven by fear... as a part of erryday life not just when and with whom it’s comfy. #campingtrip #weekendgetaway #community

  • *messy drawing but the bed is not supposed to be cute or comfy looking 😂* As someone prone to an anxious mind 🐹 (my brain runs like a hamster wheel nonstop naturally so you can imagine where that leads 🤦🏾‍♀️), this cannot be more true. There is absolutely nothing comfortable or lasting, though we may convince ourselves there is, in putting our trust in anything other than God. True rest is found in Him. The “alliances” we may be tempted to make may appear strong but will be rendered helpless and weak in the long run... #truthincolor #mychosenportion #solascriptura #biblejournal #biblejournaling #biblrjournalingcommunity #wordbeforeworld

  • 8 years ago today, my eldest brother arrived here again in 9 lb 12 oz cuddly, baby-smelling ,nephew form 😂... Anyone who knows me well knows there are 2 men I was (and still am) crazy about . But sorry guys - these little folk steal it (still love ya lots though) ! He’s our sweet little future climatologist/geologist/architect/mathematician. Crazyyyy it seems like yesterday - my mom kept you 11 months so I toted you around the house on your boppy and stayedddd up in your face. The highlight of my freshman/sophomore year of college before I had my own car was getting in the car with my mom to go home and peeking at you in the back seat OR the diaper blowouts in the car 😂😂😂😂. You still give the best lil sweet baby hugs and it has been a joy watching you grow up. Just last year you had me cracking up mackin on my girls🙄 & then there’s your notorious response to J & I getting engaged “congrats you survived yourselves” *so true*😂

  • Y’all Isaiah is full of wonderful imagery ! Ive been slowly sitting in this book 😍... This is my 1st time reading the whole book through. We piece out fav scriptures so much 😭🤦🏾‍♀️ but context matters. Loving just sitting here in a book where the central theme is God himself - the Holy One of Israel❤️ ** I’ve found it helpful for keeping context in purview to read larger chunks of the text before diving in; and then once again going back to let that joint marinate (and draw/paint/ meditate) 📢And even with this exercise I’m seeing how my weakness often presents as impatience but the opposite - strength- is not to get puffed up with self confidence but to wait on, hope in, trust in, expect and eagerly look for the Lord ... #isaiah #truthincolor #mychosenportion

  • My neighbor sent me an article a couple weeks ago & this was the takeaway. Definitely a reminder to lean on the Lord in seasons of waiting where fear is looming. Honestly all of life is waiting, riddled with reminders of our present station: awaiting eternity with our living hope - a hope will not put us to shame 💜 #truthincolor #mychosenportion #faithoverfear #alivinghope #hopewriterlife
