Ponder Again the Promises

Have you ever felt like everything you had planned for your life didn’t go according to plan at all? Oh wait… that’s about 98% of the world right now. 😄 Yet when it comes to the Lord, He says, “I KNOW the plans I have for you…” (Jeremiah 29:11) in which His plans always are…

Unforgotten

We will not forget God.

He will not forget us.

What has happened will not be forgotten.

What He is going to do will not be forgotten.

Wind of God

Can you sense it? The song of battle transforming into a song of praise.

There is a new thing moving. There is a new sound brewing. For our rightful King is on the throne.

Your Time Is Up

Where he positions us is always purposeful.Even when we can’t understand it. That’s the definition of magic, isn’t it? It’s something that cannot be explained, yet still, here it is, and here you are too. And thus…

May you use what is in your hands + go after what is in your heart.

UNHIDDEN

Without expressionLove is much more a wild thought But with cultivationLove is the most wondrous dream

This is where time lands On the field of grace Where one risks themselves To be seen as they are For who they areAnd where they areLoved or unlovedBut trulyUnhidden

All The Feels

There’s a thousand emotions running through my veins, sending out my courage in a thousand waves, all the feels and all the pain, all the love and all the wait. Yet still, even when there is no other hand to hold, or smile to see, I find beauty in the twinkling eyes of the Creator…

All the Feels

Darkness can be both frightening and inviting. It can scare you; it also can prepare you. It can wear you heavily down,or lift you freely up and out. It’s a strange thing, staring at this sky with all its magnificent light.You standing here, it standing there, floating on air… Staring at you with all…

Stay Safe but Don’t Stay Hidden 

It is a good thing to stay safe. To be healthy now more than ever, to wash your hands and be clever. But don’t isolate your heart from others, yourself, or God. Instead, lean into this sacred space, like broken bread and wine, stopping time, and remembering all that matters.

The Waited Voice

Hello my dear friends! I’m sorry it’s been so long. These past three years have been somewhat of a surprise in a challenging and reshaping way. I’ve changed a lot, and change isn’t always my most welcomed friend. However, I’m learning that this shouldn’t be so, for change welcomes our future with grace and kindness…

Come Out of Hiding

Don’t stay in hiding like the inner-critic proposes we do. Listen to the Creator-Father and follow Him into blessings 1000-fold of what He could do and use with your brave. Your work is worthy of being seen and heard. It is worthy of praise and adoration. & Most of all, it is worthy to Him.…

Layers of Love Unending

So from a grieving heart to those who may not know how to help the hurting, I write these words… Grief does not have to be as lonely as everyone makes it out to be. It’s supposed to have contrasts like art.

Within Gardens of Grace

So if there’s anything I can pass along to the person who may have forgotten their power, their voice, their song, it is that it is still within you. The enemy can distract you from who you are for a time being, but he cannot ever take the real rarity that is you away.

7 Things I Learned Being “Homeless” 

It’s a bold heading, I know. But before you freak out, let me first explain my title of “home”less… Or shall I say the predicament I walked by faith into. I wasn’t homeless as in without a home, in fact I had many homes. 6 to be exact in a short period of time. Yet…

Dance Through The Night 

Have you ever fully opened your heart up to someone? Like letting them move in to the comfort of your home, where all is out in the open for the guest to see. They see your style, your loves, your taste, your vulnerabilities. Your walls are lined with your favorite works of art, books of…

A letter to the 18 year old ME

To my sweet, 18-year-old me, You are probably on the back porch, soaking in the sun, ready to embark on your first adventure away from home. You are most likely dreaming of what friends you will meet, what prince may await you, and what more God has for you. In 5 years, you won’t begin…

Have you ever had a thought so WILD …so GRAND… so HUMUNGOUS… that you let it go? You actually forgot about it because it was SO bizarre that the label of impossible was quickly stamped upon it. AKA: me three weeks ago. It’s funny because, honestly, I consider myself to be a Joseph, someone who dreams…

Because the truth is, who we marry isn’t supposed to take the place of Jesus… They’re supposed to lead us closer to Him.

The truth is, there is more ahead; the truth is there is more within you, and the truth is in believing the best is yet to come, you will see the best ahead.

Be Still and… NO.

When we begin to allow ourselves to know God, we begin to hear the depth behind His words that He patiently and wisely spoke into existence for us to hold onto.

Speaking in Silence

They say seeing is believing, but when it comes to faith, I have come to discover that we must have eternal eyes.
