Hey guys, I wanted to give an update and share what has been going on and what I experienced.

Yesterday I had an unexplained, documented miracle and I am SO thankful to the Lord.

Back on January 17th, I had sudden severe pain that sent me to the ER. They did multiple scans and found a ruptured ovarian cyst with blood and fluid in my abdominal cavity. But beyond that, they diagnosed me with numerous ovarian cysts, adenomyosis, and endometriosis.

Over the next two months, the pain became constant and intense. I was in and out of the ER. Several tests showed that my left o***y was completely fused to my uterus. They also suspected additional adhesions, and based on how everything looked on the scans, they believed multiple organs were likely stuck together and not where they were supposed to be. I was diagnosed with stage four endometriosis and adenomyosis, which is severe and can spread throughout the body.

I was not sleeping well, I was exhausted, and it was affecting my day to day life. There was ongoing internal bleeding and multiple cyst ruptures. It was terrible.

My doctor recommended surgery to break up the adhesions and address everything they were seeing. Based on the scans and my symptoms, they expected to go in and find a severe case.

At the same time, I had been believing God for healing. I believe in miraculous healing and I also trust God through medical processes. I decided I would walk through every door He opened.

During this time, the Lord kept speaking to me. He said, “This is meant to be a major inconvenience. Make it a minor one.”
He also highlighted His name Elohim, Creator God, the One who goes before. I leaned into that and even wore a shirt that said Elohim to my surgery.

And it truly felt like He was going before me in every detail.

Even the timing. I felt surgery would be the week of March 23rd, but they scheduled me for April. Ten minutes later... -Continued in comments...

The last few months have honestly felt like a really hard winter season for me.

So much so that at the end of last year I started having anxiety about starting 2026. That has never happened to me before. I usually love the New Year. It is normally a time of excitement and fresh vision for me. But going into this year I felt really anxious, and I did not know why.

At the beginning of the year the Lord asked me to start getting up an extra hour early so I could spend a full, uninterrupted hour with Him.

Two weeks later I found myself in the ER with intense pain and bleeding. Long story short, I was diagnosed with two abdominal conditions. One of them actually causes your internal organs to fuse together. It has been very painful and overwhelming, and I now have surgery coming up in the middle of the busiest season of the year for kids ministry.

The other day the Lord reminded me of something that really shifted my perspective.

When we are coming out of a winter season, we often look around at the damage winter left behind. The dead grass. The broken branches. The things that did not survive.

But He said to look for the new life.

Look for the green grass starting to come up.

As my friend Lauren Roberts says, look for the little baby grasses.

Even the smallest sign of life means something is changing.

So if you feel like you are in a winter season right now, start looking for the little baby grasses. They are a sign that God is doing a new thing. They are a sign that spring is coming.

The season of singing is here.
The season of singing is now.

I hope this encourages you today. 🌱

I can't 🤣

I didn't even know "Granny" costumes existed in this small of a size. That was the quickest add-to-cart ever. Meanwhile my 7 turned 70 year old is living her best life...and whooping people with her cane.

Give em heck Rita!

After the car accident and subsequent procedures, meds, etc. This year has been about getting healthy again. I invested in my health and lost over 30 lbs, and my sweet husband got me something that has been on my wish list for years, a Lenox Spice Village. He even made the shelves, painted them, and installed them on Christmas Eve. I thought that every time I looked at this wall, I would be reminded of how far I've come physically, but that's not what happened. Every time I see this, I am reminded of who is in my corner. Who believes in me even when I don't believe in myself.

Ladies, if you are single and looking, make sure you hold out for a man who cheers louder for you than anyone else. Who sees the good in you, even on the bad days.

It's worth the wait.

I promise 🙏

What an AMAZING week 🔥🔥🔥 Our team poured out with excellence, and Jesus met us in such a tangible and powerful way. He’s just that good. There’s truly nothing more impactful than sowing into the heart of a child and watching them encounter His love 😭

Lives were impacted—kids, families, even our staff—and that is the real Joy Story.

HBD babe 🥳🎂

We just got back from one of the best trips I have ever taken in my life. We, along with my Mom and Sis, went to Branson Missouri for the Christmas holiday. We lived in Branson a few years ago during one of the most painful seasons I have walked through. I had absolutely no desire to go back and even visit,

But the Lord said it was time to heal.

We went to all the old places we used to go, this time as tourists. It was so different being on that side of it. We laughed and cried and had the best time until my husband wanted to ride the giant ferris wheel we used to ride. I never enjoyed it before but it wasn't an issue to ride it. That was then. I felt myself getting queasy just walking up to it. It looms so large and I felt so small. Getting on was fine but as we got closer to the top of the fifteen story ride, full PTSD set in. For some weird reason I felt like I was back in the ER having just been brought in via ambulance after the accident last year. I couldn't breathe. All I could do was cry and silently pray. As the first rotation came to an end, the attendant asked if I wanted to get off early. I absolutely did,

But the Lord said it was time to heal.

I finished the ride even though I was afraid, so that I could remind my girls that being fearless isn't the absence of fear, it's persevering in spite of it. I do realize that people reading this may think "all that over a ferris wheel?" To me, it was a deep trauma/PTSD trigger I didn't know existed. When we got back in the car I finally started to feel OK again but then my ten year old asked to drive by our old house. My stomach instantly knotted up. I had zero desire to go and actually wanted the Huz to drop me off at the hotel,

But the Lord said it was time to heal.

It was rough even seeing the old place. It is a stately, beautiful, custom built home and just driving by you would assume that whoever lived inside must have the best life with no worries or cares. That was not the case for us. However the Lord is strong and true, faithful and constant, and He is the same for us in the darkness as He in in the light. His strong arms carried me though that season.

We had such a great trip and I intended to come back and post all the pics and rave about the time we had. But this trip was different. Sometimes trauma can actually cause us to overshare and I have definitely done that in the past. But I can back from this trip different. I feel it. Something amazing happened, and while my relatives may post(with my complete blessing) this is all I will be sharing about the experience. These words however are not rooted in trauma. With every stroke of these keys healing and freedom is being released in my life.

Friend, we cannot pursue the future while being tethered to the past. I am so thankful for the One who walks with us and patiently waits until we are ready to let go of the things that have held us back. Lies we have unknowingly partnered with and accepted as truth. Fears that have held us captive. I am leaving a lot of things behind in 2024 and contending for a whole lot more in 2025.

Because the Lord said it is time to heal 🕊️

The reason for the season. My heart is full, and I am thankful beyond words for the greatest gift I have ever received.

🇺🇸 TRIGGER WARNING: I cry every time I vote. It feels so important, so weighty. Men laid down their lives to give me this right. To give US this right. My 6 year old sobbed when she found out she couldn't cast a ballot, yet countless Americans will choose to sit this one out.

It's not about personality. It's about policy. Figuring out what you stand for and standing UP for your beliefs. Standing up for the future and those who can't stand up for themselves. Standing up and fighting for LIFE.

Yes I said "life" so you probably already figured out how I voted. And you are correct. And before the pro-choice peeps come for me, let me share this with you. When I was 22 years old, I found out I was pregnant with my first. We had been married just shy of two years, so it was a surprise. I started having intense pain a few weeks later and had to have an ultrasound. Turns out, it was an ectopic pregnancy. They told me they had to do surgery immediately to ab0rt the baby or the tube could rupture, and we would lose her life and mine. Was it scary?

TERRIFYING

But, the Hubs and I both knew the answer. Her life was not mine to take, even if it cost me my own.

You may disagree, and I get it. But as someone who has BEEN THERE and had to make the choice, I have a strong opinion on the matter. So many people that have opinions have never had to choke through sobs to tell the doctor "no, no surgery."

Honestly, I disagree with certain things that both parties stand for. But I chose life in a doctor's office 23 years ago, and I chose life today when I cast my ballot.

So unfollow, unfriend...or both if you need to. But the beautiful thing about this country is that men died so I could freely type these words. Men died so you and I can vote. Please, please don't take this precious right for granted.
