Have you ever read the story of how the Israelites were rebellious against God immediately after He parted the sea for them to walk through and flee from slavery, only to think, “man how could they be so unfaithful, and I would never do that?!”… Same, sister.

This applies in all areas of our lives, whether it be our marriage, parenting, businesses, friendships, all of it.

It’s the new year and that means many of us are setting goals for what we would like to be or achieve in 2024. Can I encourage you to be sure those goals and aspirations aren’t about ourselves, but about God who so graciously allows us to work hard and see the fruits of our labors? ✨Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. - Colossians 3:23-24✨

We’ve all been saying it for weeks, “oh I’m just so crazy busy”, but what would happen if we flipped that mentality and remembered that we are, in fact, “crazy blessed”?! I hope you’ll be encouraged by this sister, and share with a friend who feels like she is barely hanging on in this Christmas season too 🫶🏼

I know that the holidays can be really hard for a lot of people. Personally, I know this because we went through almost 6 years of infertility and we have lost eight babies, which obviously has changed us forever. I didn’t really understand grief before then, like how you can simultaneously endure so much sorrow and still have joy, BUT GOD! 🙌🏼 Every year, those same feelings and emotions can be exacerbated around the holidays, and I wanted to share my journey through that and what the Lord has showed me and how people have loved us really well through that. I also want to encourage you with practical ways we can love our hurting brothers and sisters this holiday season. I pray you’ll be blessed, sister 🫶🏼
