The Gift of Water
My husband recently went on a work trip, and that stirred up some anxiety in me. We haven’t been apart for more than a few hours since we married. I thought about how difficult the separation would be, and sadly, I wasted so much time anticipating how it would feel when he left. I dropped…

The Gift of Grapes, God Winks, and Good Things
Daniel and I recently found this little treasure at an antique shop while looking at furniture. We passed by a set of amethyst grapes, and I made a comment about how much I loved it. Daniel said we should get it, but I couldn’t justify the purchase. I never anticipated I’d marry a man that…

The Gift of the Window and the Magic of Winter: Playing in the Snow
3/24/26 (an entry from my dream journal) Daniel and I sat next to one another during our nightly devotional. I looked into his warm blue eyes, and my heart filled with gratitude as my mind began to catch up with reality. One year ago today, I was a mere month away from meeting the love…

The Gift of God’s Timing: When Two Become One
And the two will become one flesh. (Ephesians 5:31) For many years, I wasn’t sure I wanted to be married. A part of me did, a big part, but there was also a part of me that feared I would lose myself, my identity. I’ve come to realize, the reason I had these reservations wasn’t…

The Gift of Mothers and Mountains: Covered in Love
I’ve been inspired lately by mountains with my recent visit to Monte Sano. Mountains are awe-inspiring, majestic, and they cover about 24% of the earth’s surface. Taking in this breath taking natural wonder, I was reminded of the beauty and the majesty of mothers. Both mountains and mothers both possess great strength and stability as…

The Gift of Apples
A coworker and I have a unique love language, a ritual where we will randomly gift each other fruits. The other morning, I walked into work and saw a beautiful ripe apple on my desk. I was incredibly grateful yet found myself wishing for something different—watermelon. Unfortunately though, watermelon just isn’t in season. I felt…

The Gift of a Sleeping Baby
We got a new baby at the center at work, and she is the cutest little thing. As I sat with her the other day, rocking her to sleep, I couldn’t help but wonder if this is how God sees His children—absolutely adorable. There’s something about a sleeping baby that activates a part of us.…

The Gift of a Heart Hidden in God
“A woman’s heart should be so hidden in Christ that a man would have to seek after God just to find her.” -unknown For many years of my life, I held my own heart in my hands, ready and willing to give it to anyone I felt like I could love. My heart was anything…

The Gift of a Boat
I woke up the other morning with a worship song playing in my head—“Build a Boat” by Colton Dixon. “I will build a boat in the sand where they say it never rains. I will stand up in faith; I’ll do anything it takes. With your wind in my sails, your love never fails or…
