devotions - faith for every season

I'll be honest, I'm writing to you today not feeling like my best self. I'm bloated, uncomfortable, and feeling very much like I gained 10 pounds overnight. 🙄 Ever been there? Suddenly you're hyper-aware of your body... you know how it goes —one day you're feeling "off" and then suddenly your mind has a lot to say. Cue the critical thoughts. Do you love your body? Not tolerate it. Not work on it. Not promise to appreciate it "once it changes," but love it... as it is, right

It's finally Friday. We made it to the weekend. I don't know about y'all, but this has been a longggg week. Here in Kentucky, it's felt like we're living inside a snow globe. I haven't left the house in a week, and I feel like I'm going insane. Mind you, it's just me and two dogs... Hunter's left for work, but I'm not joking the dogs and I look at one another like... ok what's next? I'm grateful I work from home, but still, a girl's gotta leave the house. Happy to report, l a

Has anyone ever told you, "it'll happen in God's timing." Yeah girl, me too. Waiting on God's timing can feel frustrating because we often assume it should look a certain way. Like clear answers. A detailed plan. A timeline we can understand. Unfortunately, that's now how it works. We think if God were really at work, things would move faster, doors would open sooner, and clarity would come easier. Again, not how it works. The truth is, God's timing rarely aligns with our urg

We don't usually notice how fragile life is until something important is taken from us. Loss has a way of stripping e-v-e-r-y-thing down—not just what's gone, but what we thought was stable. It can leave you standing in a place you never imagined, asking God how anything good could possibly grow from here. Beauty from ashes sounds poetic until you've actually stood in the ashes. In college, my husband lost his dad to cancer. And in the months that followed, it felt like every

Romans 15:13 says, "pray that God, the source of hope, will find you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow will confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit." Hope is steady, resilient, and rooted in trust. Hope shows up in ordinary places, and look like trusting God when the delay is inconvenient. It's believing He's still present when nothing is "technically wrong," but everything feels wrong. Have you ever started a home pro

Most of us have had that moment where everything feels fine—until it suddenly doesn’t. You’re going about your day, answering texts, getting things done, feeling steady. Then you open social media. One scroll. One post. One update. And just like that, your mood shifts. Nothing in your real life changed, but something inside you did. That’s often how the heart gets worn down—not through one big moment, but through what we repeatedly take in. Scripture speaks directly to this.

It’s wild how quickly comparison sneaks in. One scroll, one update, one “oh wow, good for them” and suddenly you’re questioning your timeline, your progress, and whether you somehow missed a memo everyone else got. We can be perfectly content one minute… and completely discouraged the next—just by watching someone else run past us. We don’t always realize how exhausting it is to constantly measure ourselves against others. Their milestones. Their success. Their pace. Their hi

Mondays can feel overwhelming (especiallyyyyyy coming off the holidays). Meetings, deadlines, and decisions pile up, and sometimes we're not sure where to start. It's easy to rely on our own understanding and hustle —but God offers something far better, His wisdom. It's best said in James 1:5 , "If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking." This week, before you dive into your tasks, pause and invite God into your w
