Today we remember.💫

We remember all of those who lost their lives.

We remember the families that were left to put the pieces of their lives back together.

We remember all of the first responders that chose to run toward the chaos while everyone else ran away. 👨🏻‍🚒🚓

We remember those that are dealing with the long term health effects of the first responders, those who searched for people and those that stayed to help clean up.

We remember and we honor. 🇺🇸

⚔️ for this week:

No matter what this week throws at us 🥊 it is comforting to know that our joy doesn’t come from what does or doesn’t happen.

It comes from being in His presence 🙏🏻 and the hope of what is to come. ✨

“You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭16:11‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Blessings-Michelle

Happy Resurrection Sunday!

No wonder we call You Savior
No wonder we sing Your praise
Jesus, our hope forever
You made a way, You made a way

I see redemption
Ravage the grave
The triumph of Heaven
Christ Jesus our King

See the light tearing through the darkness
Hear the roar of the rugged cross
Jesus Christ, You alone have saved us
We worship You now

No wonder we call You Savior
No wonder we sing Your praise
Jesus, our hope forever
You made a way, You made a way

You made a way!!

I have heard it described as a dance, the interaction between joy and grief, pain or confusion. It doesn’t have to be one or the other. Most importantly, joy does not dishonor the grieving process. I believe it honors it. It shows that God is in the middle of our mess.

“God is reminding me during this time of confusion that joy can sit next to pain, and happy next to heartbreak.”

How have you seen joy in the midst of heartache?

On October 19, 2017 our neighborhood was blocked off and we couldn’t get back home. It was the third shooting in 11 days and the police wouldn’t let anyone enter the perimeter they created. My little corner of the world, the half mile radius my family calls home, made national news with ‘seria...

So good!

There comes a certain point in our journeys when we encounter loss, pain, and suffering in a way that transforms us forever. Suddenly suffering isn’t an abstract idea but heart wrenching reality that’s painfully drilled deep wells of compassion for others inside you. I experienced this through s...

A good reminder for today......

Bo Stern comes to the discussion of walking through hard things with experience. Her husband has been fighting ALS. Her new book, RUTHLESS-KNOWING THE GOD WHO FIGHTS FOR YOU, is a must read. In order to have the strength you need to walk through the days ahead and the doubt that will inevitably come, you need to understand God's character. "Can I really trust God? Why would He do this to Me? Doesn't He love me? Why has God abandoned me? But God goes before you in battle and ruthlessly fights for you."
