I share this link with you today, as a most beautiful, real-life picture of your future as a follower of Christ. Jesus is planning a surprise wedding for you, more glorious than any Pinterest board. The Bridegroom loves you, and those words don’t leave his lips but that he means them most certainly. He is coming for you….
I used to set my alarm. When it went off, I would quietly grab my Bible and slip out into the hallway so I wouldn’t wake up my roommate. Our room was in the “T”, which meant it was at the end of the long hall and around the corner, so it was very quiet….
I wish I were the one who were to decide when a baby would be in the womb and when you would hear the words “You got the job!” and when the house would sell and a guy propose and the money come in. But I’m not. Your name comes to me, though, when I…
I just wrote a check for my son to take voice lessons. He plays electric, acoustic, and bass guitar, and he is working toward being a music leader at church in the future. He’s well on his way, and I can hardly wait to see the progress he makes with his voice coach this year….
I am the perfect or the most annoying person to watch a movie with. I scream or cry or draw blood from the arm next to me at just the right moments. More than anything I love a good story. But sometimes when your to-do list says “clean toilets” again it’s hard to imagine your…
She came home crying, the little bitty blonde thing of mine. Her feet hurt, and she was exhausted from the field trip and the day’s hike. That’s when she told me she had carried the full CamelBak of water all the way up the mountain, and it wore her out. But she is an unassuming…
I usually share a valuable link with you on Sunday mornings, but I’ve got nothin’ today –must have been on vacation in Canada all week! On the drive back from Canada, I was quiet for a while. (Unusual.) Matt said, What are ya thinkin’? I said, Um, well, just about what is meaningful in life….
My dear friends, There is a video going around the internet right now, of a man speaking to women about who they are. It is well-intentioned and is meant to speak value into the lives of women, which is so desperately needed, but the content has me upset. I lost sleep over it last night…
I wanted to honeymoon there 22 years ago, but it wasn’t feasible. Now we were finally on our way to Banff. And it was socked in. That’s Montana talk for mountains covered in clouds. Fog touching the windshield. For two hours we drove and tried to enjoy what little scenery we could make out. Matt…
I used to lay on my mom’s bed and try to peak into her closet when she was getting her clothes out for the day, because there were a few little shelves up high where she kept future gifts. She would keep her eyes open while shopping, and if she saw something on sale that looked…
Matt poured my coffee. I said, Um, can you fill it? He said, It is full. I said, No, fuuuulll. So he started pouring, and when only surface tension was holding the liquid in the mug I told him he could stop. He looked at me like I’m weird. I said, It makes me anxious…
I sat down on the plastic chair in front of the table, and the man placed a form in front of me. I couldn’t read it, my eyes swimming with tears. Setting down the pen, I buried face in hands and cried win-the-lottery, can’t-believe-I’m-finally-doing-this, dream-coming true tears. Months ago God put this in front of me, the same months…
