    He is Trustworthy

    The Lord has been speaking to me lately a lot about trust. Trust is something that is vital to our relationships. You can’t have healthy relationships if there’s no trust. This includes our relationship with God. A while back, I noticed a beautiful example of trust in the Psalms. Specifically, Psalm 139. In verse 23, […]

    Hope

    The resurrection of Jesus is a story that never gets old.  As I spend another Easter at home here in Brazil, I think of the times that I’ve felt like my hope was lost. We see it in movies all the time; the hero is gone and everyone is wondering how on earth this could […]

    The Best Laid Plans

    These past two years have not gone as I planned. You know how they say the best laid plans can fail? They definitely did. When I stepped off the plane in December 2017 after spending 3 years in the jungles of Ecuador, I had the next year planned out. I was convinced I would be […]

  • Among The Redwoods

    Among The Redwoods

    My family tree is not beautiful. It’s not like the Redwoods that have roots that run deep and are as old as the earth itself. It isn’t known for its majesty or beauty. People don’t travel for miles to see it. It doesn’t have strong branches where birds can rest. It isn’t teeming with life. […]

  • My Favorite Books of 2018

    Anyone who knows me knows I absolutely love reading. As of today, I’ve read 65 books this year. My yearly goal is usually 52 (one a week). This year I decided I’d write a short post on my 5 favorites, with a few honorable mentions. Putting this list together was so hard! A few notes: […]

  • Digging Roots

    Digging Roots

    The hardest part of missions for me has always been digging roots. Heck, it’s been the hardest part of life for me. But it wasn’t always this way. When I was young friendships weren’t a problem. It was easy, even. But I got hurt many times over the years. I’ve never really had a close […]

    The Bones // Family

    When Brooke asked me to take 2-year-old pictures of her daughter, I was THRILLED to do them! She also asked if I could take a few family shots while we were together. The Bones are a precious family in my church. I adored taking photos of this sweet family. And doesn’t Selah make the cutest […]

    Unlikely Roommates

    This post was written the week I knew I wouldn’t be returning to Ecuador as a missionary. Even though I was overjoyed that I would be going to Brazil, my heart still ached because I didn’t know when I would see the people I fell in love with again. There’s a type of grieving that […]

  • Does God Like Me?

    I used to ask myself a lot when I was younger if God liked me. You’re probably wondering why a kid would ask that question. Well, my mom (sorry mom I still love you) used to say something a lot: “Just because I have to love someone doesn’t mean I have to like them.” Maybe […]

  • Following a Ghost

    For some people, change is easy. They flow like a river, taking the sudden shifts in direction smoothly. Others struggle with it. It’s a raging river they have to cross, not flow down. Usually, I’m the former. But not this time. Change is easier when emotions aren’t deeply involved. Things get hard when the smooth […]
