“There is an appointed time for everything… a time to be silent and a time to speak.” Eccl. 3:1a and 7b For 2 years I have remained largely silent in this space where I have invited you into much of my life, heartache, faith and joys. Some of it had to do with the…
I sent a recap of the way we celebrated and remembered what would have been my 2nd daughter, Dasah’s 5th birthday (November 13th) to my mom and she sent the following text: “Love how you celebrate and how Jaden and Briella are learning this is what hope literally looks like.” I hadn’t thought of our…
I held my breath much of my entire pregnancy with Briella, wondering, anticipating, daring to believe that the child I was carrying would actually live outside of my womb longer than a few hours. Is this real? How do I hold in tension the fear, all of what I previously knew of new life ending…

Four years. I still can’t wrap my mind around the fact that it has been four years since I gazed into the sweet face of my first born daughter, heard her cry and held her in my arms. Those memories have become less vivid and I have less of an ability to recall so many…
“… as long as he sought the Lord, God prospered him.” -2 Chronicles 26:5 It Is Good to Live a Life of Small Things It is good to stay weak. It is good to stay dependent. It is good to not have a large following of man, lest your heart be strayed to pride and…
“Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?” 2 Kings 1:3 A poignant question for Ahaziah, king of Israel, king of God’s people whose first thought when faced with sickness was not to inquire of His God, but another. And so God…
