I haven’t necessarily felt distant from God lately, but I’ve definitely been feeling like I’m not spending as much time with Him as I’d like (or NEED). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Having a new baby throws things for a loop, and for a long time it has felt like survival mode. But our sweet girl turned four months old recently 🥰 and I can’t forever use her as an excuse as to why I’m not spending time with my Maker (who gave us these cute girls to begin with)!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you ever felt like God is calling you back to Him? It’s the best ever. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I mean it may often come with some discomfort or conviction; knowing you’re going to need to be stretched in ways that you might not want.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
BUT thinking about GOD, the Creator of the universe, caring enough about little tiny ME to orchestrate situations and speak specifically to me... THAT is humbling. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It reminds me that His love for me is so great because He truly desires my heart and wants me to be in relationship with Him. And for that I’m SO thankful. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stay tuned for my next post where I’ll share some of the ways God specifically called me back to Him during this season of my life.

I’m embarrassed to admit this...⠀
⠀
But I stayed up late last night playing a video game, and now I’m exhausted!⠀
⠀
I honestly don’t feel like I have time to play video games anymore, except for the occasional date night with my hubby or hilarious Mario games with friends. ⠀
⠀
I grew up with four boys (plus all their friends) and was a major tomboy! One of games we played quite a bit was Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2...and guys... they just re-released it! (If you’re into this PLEASE TELL ME!)⠀
⠀
My hubby and brother and I have been talking about it excitedly for months. And last night was the first time we got to try it! It brought back so many memories, but now I’m exhausted because, let’s be real, moms can’t sleep in 😅⠀
⠀
Even though today is Sunday, we’re home. It’s hard going to church when my hubby is on volunteer duty. Taking two girls into the sanctuary by myself with no childcare (and one of them needing to nurse) is difficult! ⠀
⠀
I guess it works out, since I need to take it easy after virtually skateboarding way into the night 😂😂⠀
⠀
Whether you’re at church or at home today, I hope you remember that God is the source of our strength. ⠀
⠀
I definitely think it’s important to get enough rest and keep our bodies healthy. But when we’re weary or exhausted, let’s look to Him. He’s gotten me through MUCH worse, and He is SO faithful. 💪

[Remind them]...to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people. -Titus 3:2⠀
⠀
In a culture of aggression, gossip, slander, division, and a “me-first” mentality, THIS is good advice. ⠀
⠀
Be gentle.⠀

Guys, I’m doing something new! I’m designing digital planner stickers to be sold in a really great online shop 🤩⠀

This design is a peek at my first theme ☺️⠀

More on that to come soon!

If only I wouldn’t insist on fighting my own battles... I’d save myself a lot of heartache. 💔

James 4 hit me in the face like a ton of bricks this morning 😅 If you’re feeling stubborn and hard-headed or wanting to throw yourself a pity party like I was, go read it for some conviction.

Lesson for the day: God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.

Humility is better. Surrender is better. God’s way is always better.

I wrote this prayer for a loved one the other day; and I may or may not have had a worship song playing in my mind as I wrote these words down 😊️🙈
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Lord, please open their eyes to Your truth, hope, and peace.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Give them eyes to see You, that it may still their anxious heart.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
May they know that You are greater than the problems of this world, and that they can truly put their hope in You, above all the other things they once thought were their security.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Save them Lord!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In Jesus’ name, amen.

Psalms 79:9 (ESV) Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name; deliver us, and atone for our sins, for your name’s sake!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One awesome part about praying for someone’s salvation is that it’s all for the glory of God’s name. We pray on their behalf, live out the love of Christ, and speak truth, and God captivates and transforms hearts and minds. He gets all the glory!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let’s pray that during this time of uncertainty, many would turn to Christ.

Reminder: The Lord will fight for you. You only need to be still. ⠀
⠀
Don’t feel the need to shout until you get your point across. Don’t feel like to have to figure out how to fix the mess. ⠀
⠀
Give the unfair situation to Him. Come to Him with your mess. And then sit back in peace and rest, knowing He WILL fight for you. ⠀
⠀
This is a preview of my brand new product: Heart Bound Scripture Cards. Mini (and pretty!) reminders of truth that you can take anywhere or put anywhere. They’ll be added to the shop soon 💕
