Happy Mother’s Day to all the beautiful and incredible mommas, aspiring mommas, and mommas whose arms are empty while God holds your child. You often do tasks and jobs that go unrecognized or unseen for the true value they bring. You carry unspeakable pain and weight while also holding little hands. In this world, you may feel forgotten, overlooked, or under-appreciated, but God has not forgotten you.

Contrary to the words of a well-known evangelical pastor, the wedding night and everything that follows is not “You stand where I tell you to stand, you wear what I tell you to wear, and you do what I tell you to do.”

Wives are not a blow up dolls. They are daughters of the King - may we treat them as Jesus did and does.

So let’s pick up our Bibles ladies and become proficient in God’s word that we would be able to discern lies from truth.

PS I need an acknowledge an error in my wording on my 7th picture. It would be more accurate to say “Christ is** fully God and Fully man” rather than “was”. The things you miss despite multiple re-reads and don’t notice untill after you post 🤦🏽‍♀️🤪

Lasting hope and peace are not tied to any particular set of circumstances. They are found only as we cling closely to Emmanuel, God with us.

Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy helped me better understand God’s beautiful gift of lament, and I am deeply grateful for how this book introduced me to the topic and helped me make better sense of the many cries of lament we see throughout Scripture—including those from the lips of our precious Lord and Savior.

Strength isn’t stoicism; it is crying out and surrendering ourselves to our strong and ever-present Savior, even when the circumstances of life scream at us to take the reins ourselves.

Your identity is firmly rooted in your relationship with God, not in your success or struggles as a parent. While we cannot control who our children will become, we can entrust them to the Lord and seek to parent in a way that is faithful and reflective of our Savior.

And that is why no one is more worthy of our praise than our precious Savior, who met us in our need, went to the cross to rescue us, rose again, and reigns forevermore.

To those who find themselves suffering today, know that your Savior empathizes with you, and your eternal home will be all the sweeter for those who know the deeply personal experience of pain and suffering, just as our Lord and Savior does.

Our intentions matter to God, but so do our words, actions, and behavior. When someone repeatedly appeals to their “good intentions” without seeking to understand the harm they have caused, acknowledging it, confessing their sin, and walking in repentance over time, it is wise to pay attention to that pattern and to steward and care for ourselves accordingly.

Too often, professed “good intentions” are used as an attempt to smooth over another person’s pain rather than sitting in it with humility. True humility requires us to examine our behavior honestly, asking whether our actions align with what God’s Word teaches about what is holy and what is wicked.

At times, it is true that someone did not intend to cause harm. Genuine remorse and humility will be shown in how they respond when you express your pain and in a changed trajectory of their words and actions.

invites us on a journey toward healthy, God-honoring sexuality for those who have experienced the life-shattering betrayal of sexual violence.

Sexual abuse is one of those topics that is so hard to talk about. It is the kind of thing the mind hides even from itself. There it often remains, drenched in shame.

If someone opens up to you about the sexual abuse they have experienced, please know that you have been given a very fragile piece of themselves. May you hold and steward it with care, just as our Savior and Friend holds each survivor.

Meet them in their pain as our Redeemer does. When abuse, and those who deny it, become the mouthpiece of the enemy, be the trumpet of Heaven and the Gospel.
