Pruning Season
"Pruning". It's been some intense days, weeks and months. Heck, years. I believe I wrote about this already, haha. But oh my goodness, every time I believe God is done, He keeps revealing another plot to the story. To My story. His story for me. The one He carefully wrote for me. My God is … Continue reading Pruning Season
Overthinker or Dreamer?
This morning while trying to run away from the list of tasks I have to do I encountered this Instagram post which put a halt on my running. It showed a drawing of a young woman with her face in her hands with many scribbles around her head and Jesus with His hand on her … Continue reading Overthinker or Dreamer?
Creativity In Stillness
Psalms 46:10 -- “Be still, and know that I am God; …” Sitting still is also part of the process of being creative. Creativity can be very overwhelming sometimes. Not because being creative is hard, but because you just want to do so much and the ideas keep flowing and you’re just not sure where … Continue reading Creativity In Stillness

Literally, we puzzle the pieces of our life together in this one great picture called life. On my Sabbath two days ago, … Continue reading A Puzzling Life
His Riches
Philippians 4:19 [HCSB] -- "And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus." This is a verse I read daily. It’s a verse I’ve now maybe read a thousand times. And every time I did, I thought of God supplying my every need like food, clothing, affection … Continue reading His Riches

In Numbers 11:16 we read that after the people complained and Moses also got displeased, that the Lord answered by calling Moses to gather seventy men of the elders of Israel. Israel was in the midst of their journey through the wilderness on their way to the promised land. Their selective memory remembered the foods … Continue reading Light One Another
