It’s a beautiful snowy morning here today as I sip my warm lemon water and look out my window at the trees all covered with snow. It’s a true winter wonderland out my window and I love it. There is a stillness and peace that falling snow brings that is hard to explain, it’s a […]
My word of the year for 2022
My word for 2021 was Connection. You can read more about how that went, here. To be honest, I was thinking maybe I didn’t even want to do a word this year. Some years I really connect with the word and others I kind of forget about. Not super encouraging I suppose but I really […]
My 2021 Word of the Year
Last year I chose FREEDOM as my word for 2020. Yes, let’s all collectively laugh or cry at the same time as 2020 was the year of lockdowns and restrictions. While maybe it didn’t feel like a year of freedom with lockdowns and weirdness with the rona, God had a lesson for me. Freedom doesn’t […]
2020 Word of the Year
Happy almost end of January! I always look forward to January and February as it is usually a slower time of the year where I can focus on my word for the year, read some books, journal, dig into my bible and just hunker down, refuel and rest. My word for 2019 was Light. In […]

2016 word for the year
I am so excited to blog today and share what God has laid on my heart for this year! In 2014 my word for the year was Deeper and I really felt like that was my word for 2015 as well, I just didn’t know it until last week when I looked back over the […]
Reviewing 2015
2015 is almost over, as always the year seems to fly by and we always think the next few days,weeks or months won’t be so busy but they fill up somehow. In 2014 my word was deeper and it was a struggle for me overall, I felt lonely, lost and just really not sure what […]
Thoughts on For the Love & Community
So let me start by saying this because it’s important to be honest, I didn’t love Jen Hatmaker until recently. I know, scandalous. Back in 2004 I did one of her first bible studies for women and I didn’t love it. Then I was going to read Seven and I just didn’t do it because […]
