This picture stuck out to me a few years ago- of course, it isn’t meant to be God (parents do this) and would not entirely make sense, but things flooded into my mind of ways God’s done this in profound ways for years- that little plant doesn’t even know it… (until the ‘break me’ year…

We watched this video- it’s a little more concise than the last video.(; This is the one I was the most nervous about because it is most of the Bible and I was praying that it would not cause confusion. (Again, they could recognize the stories by the pictures and so that helped a lot…

We watched this the first week. I explained that we were going to look at the Bible very quickly over the next couple of months. This video is great but while we were watching it, it seemed a little too long for our context. ⬆️ Watch this video if you want to be in awe…

Let me start off by saying, by thinking of this quote I don’t mean ‘bad’, I mean difficult…(we weren’t on our way to Smaug 🐉) mainly the difficult was the mixture of changes, distance driving, the felt logistics of sharing a vehicle for half of it (I just recently remembered that- and in that realized…

“Object permanence is the understanding that objects, people, and places continue to exist when they cannot be seen, heard or sensed.” I learned about this in my child development class a few years ago(: *I first realized the uniqueness in people’s voices a few years ago and wrote about in Recognize– That time, I could…

This song was repeated often, during preparation, over the duration of these weeks. 🤍 one time, tears got me because the preparation felt like too muchhhh and this song came on again, and I just cried while also simultaneously knew in my heart/was recentered on the ‘why’ To fully encapsulate this residency, I have to…

Note/Preface: I also feel like it’s important to note that I mean when focusing on the residency, Gods love through people showing up here is what stood out. (It didn’t have to be the case (; ) It seemed like it was truly e.v.e.r.y.d.a.y life, meeting new people/being around so many people. 😊 I reread…

🧍🏻‍♀️In June, I stood under the awning of the entrance to the church building. I watched as kids rotated between outdoor games. I stood feeling like a mix between a spectator at a game and a security guard haha- I was able to be a grade ‘coach’ during a VBS camp where kids learn about…

My mom shared that with me- she understands lol. In a good way because they’re all good things. (I truly am so grateful too!) She shared this with me a few weeks after getting back from a camp. A small example of tiredness- I think the whole busyness of the summer and the build up…

Session #1- incorrect postures are 1. UNDER God (Obedience > Relationship) 2.OVER God (Outcome > relationship) 3.FROM God (Blessing > relationship) All postures are a response to FEAR and a means to control. They seek to use God instead of be WITH Him. Caveats 1- we all struggle 2- postures become incorrect when they are…

It’s crazy to think that 2 months have gone by! But also the past couple weeks felt like a month in a way, so maybe it’s not that crazy. 😂

(Bumped up the publish date) Okay this is SO cool. (I still have to update it with the posts from the past year(: )

Oh hmm, I listened to a shorter version. Wheww just found this book when I was curious to see if there were kids books on fb marketplace. There is so much here Last week, my parents helped make a room, an office for me. In the beginning process of that, I was moving things in…

-His love, grace and mercy -that we can have a relationship with the God of the universe -family -friends -church -new beginnings -a great first week -loving and caring people -being welcomed and brought in -intentionality -feeling slightly overwhelmed 😆 but yet soo supported -trainings that are trulyyyy helpful -meeting so many staff that care…

Those were a part of the words my great uncle who I don’t remember ever meeting, commented on a post about my new first job, nine years ago- childcare at church. Would we consider that exhortation? I think so. It is one of the few comments like it that I’ve ever gotten. It stands outs…

I have so many thoughts on this prophetic art. I received it and there is such specificity that actually means so much to me. It’ll probably be my wallpaper for this entire year! ♥️ Prior to receiving this art, I had told a few people that I felt rooted where I was. Then I was…

This happened on Easter Day too. I was in the large group room and they were in the process of dismissing and a teacher from the young 5s class counted and said they might be missing a kid. A teacher almost instantly said that someone may have walked out with the 3 year olds. There…
