Happy, happy, happy weekend! Some real, down in the bones JOY to celebrate today! Links & stories this week 100% guaranteed to make you smile a mile wide & believe like crazy in a Good God redeeming everything — and that there’s love everywhere & for ((you))!
Serving up only the Good Stuff for you right here:
What do you do when you wake up and feel like you’re not enough for your life? Or when you look out the kitchen window as dusk falls and wonder how do you live when life keeps breaking your heart?
In sixty vulnerably soulful stories, the highly anticipated The Way of Abundance moves from self-weary brokenness to Christ-focused givenness.
…parenting is hard & beautiful,
and very, very hard & very, very beautiful,
and sometimes you just get down on the floor & weep
& there’s no shame in it — tears just saying we’re loving deep.
And it’s kinda true… parenting children you literally have to look up — keeps you parenting from the best posture of all.
Who ever expected living to mean so much joy & so much heart ache? Love & pain are the two chambers of the same heart that pump courage through the aching veins.
And it’s my heart that keeps falling as these fledgelings begin to fly. Anyone know? Where did all this glorious time go? Parenting is really all about swallowing hard & staying soft — and mastering the art of letting go & holding on & letting come what comes. Life isn’t about slowing down how fast time goes — it’s about taking the time to slow down your life to enjoy whatever comes.
There is only so much time here. So let’s be all here today, this week.
Remembering that how we look at each other — is how we love each other. How we look into eyes is how we love each other’s hearts.
And we can know this: Every heart loves deeper — when their eyes linger longer.
