The Gift of a Gentle and Quiet Spirit
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment such as arranging of the hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.

The Gift of Hills
Whenever someone would tell me I was beautiful, I used to really take it to heart. In fact, I still do. Who doesn’t want to hear those words? As I’ve gotten older, though, there’s something that I long to hear even more than that. “I see God in you.” There is no higher compliment. When…

The Gift of Rest
Come to me, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28) God had been trying to reach me lately, but I ignored His calls. Between work, day to day chores, errands, church, small group activities, my blog, social media—I’ve been putting a couple of very important things on the back burner: God and rest. The…

It’s beautiful, isn’t it? This picture is like something straight out of a fairytale.
