God answered unknown prayers in this few days. He knew what my heart needed more than I did. I thought I just needed to work out and eat some lettuce. (Which I needed to do and did today!) Driving with the windows down and Gospel Music blaring. Friends who feed me. Hugs from middle school girls excited to see me. Friends who listen to what is happening in my heart and life. Pictures of the cutest niece and nephews. Friends who want to eat at the same restaurant every time we hang out! All of it...was exactly what I needed and I didn’t even know it. ⁣ ⁣ I often feel so incapable and inadequate for all the things that life requires of me these days. I probably say the wrong thing, use too many words, and fall short in a million other ways. But He continues to remind me that He is doing the work that I will never be able to do and I get to be a witness to it. And sometimes even in my inadequacy, he uses me, and then encourages my heart through it.⁣ ⁣ This Easter is one for the books. ⁣ ⁣ #Godsgoodness #sunset #baptism #Easter2019 #prayer⁣ #nofiltersunset #kc

When someone hands you a little bit of art, you treasure it and display it. You show it off to friends. @madelynnerae handed this to me after she shared part of her story with us for the @inthemidstpodcast and I was blown away by her generosity. ⁣ ⁣ If you think about it, all artists that share their work with the world are generous. They bare a piece of their heart and soul and give it away. When it is on display or spoken or sung or for sale it isn’t just theirs anymore. Thank you! ❤️⁣ ⁣ I feel honored when artists are willing to share their gifts. If you are an artist that struggles to share or you have dreams of sharing, someone would most likely be blessed by your generosity. ⁣ ⁣ #artists #artistsway #generosity #gifts #art #grateful #hopewriters

New Blog Post--There is something about the anthem of HUSTLE that has been nagging at me a while. I wrote some thoughts about why hustle can be just like anything else, a distraction, a place of disbelief. ⁣ ⁣ Link is in the profile!⁣ https://wp.me/p7QlNl-ly #blogs #hopewriter #writerlife #hustle ⁣

Something about time on my toes running through neighborhoods and to the next pole or stop sign somehow sets my brain aright. Pushing myself to just run a little bit further, to practice breathing deeply, and to not give up even when it is hard. ⁣ ⁣ I spent a lot of time in the last 2 years beating myself up for not running like a did in my 20s. But now, I think running, even if isn’t as fast or consistent, will still be something I need to do. Practicing gratefulness today for beautiful weather, legs that work, and space in my life to begin again.⁣ ⁣ #rungirlrun #springweather #running #doitanyway #slowbutstillgoing #run ⁣

During Spring Break, I hopped around to different places in the city. It reminded me about how much I love living here. The pockets of places to just sit and be. Some places undiscovered, some familiar and revisited. It was good to find new favorites that you have mixed feelings about telling people about because then they might get too busy! 😊 . . #newplaces #pocketsofjoy #writingspaces #hopewriters #coffeeshops

This week was a doozy. A lot of things, mostly good, especially my birthday! I am worn out but can’t help but just be thankful for my life and all that God is doing. . . Another year A trip around the sun A day marked with Pain and joys A day To remember How far I have come How far He brought me Some years Brought big expectations Some quiet Celebrations Now I am settling in To time with Those that Make my days full I am settling in To spend the day Remembering And dreaming Honoring and Anticipating I am Not done Yet. #birthdaypoem #hopewriters #notdoneyet #Godisgood #poetry #writing #godskindness
