I was reading in my bible this morning in the book I was reading in my bible this morning in the book of Matthew. The story that we all know about Jesus walking on water to His disciples and Peter stepping out of the boat. I have read and heard this story at least a thousand times. I did the craft at vacation Bible school. I have dug into the truth of the story as an adult. 

But it hit me different this morning. Maybe because life feels like one giant storm right now? Maybe because our world is in the most tumultuous state that it’s been in in our lifetime. Our country is so divided. We are isolated and quarantined and lonely. Maybe it’s because big things have come up in my own personal life that are asking me to have big faith in Jesus to work it out.

Maybe you are there too, my friend. Maybe the political climate has you discouraged. Maybe you are lonely. Maybe your marriage is on the rocks. Maybe your children aren’t speaking to you right now. Maybe you have lost a parent. Maybe you have lost a child. Maybe you are struggling through month after month of infertility and you are feeling the weight of life. Maybe your depression is threatening to pull you under the waves and you just aren’t sure where your faith is or how much more you can bear. 

This is where it hit me. So how do we survive the storms in life that feel like they are about to swallow us up? God spoke this very simple and yet incredibly profound truth to me this morning: Don’t let the storm take your eyes off of Jesus.

It really is as simple as that. Peter was in a hopeless situation. He was asked to step out into some really scary, big, impossible circumstances and there was never any way that He was going to be able to do them on his own. No amount of flailing his arms or peddling his legs was ever going to propel him across the top of the water. He never stood a chance in his own strength. When he was called out of the boat, he was destined to sink. IF he took his eyes off of Jesus.

🚨Please read the rest in the comments! The bottom line is coming!👇🏻🚨
10(ish) months 💖💖💖 My sweet Lillie, you a 10(ish) months 💖💖💖
My sweet Lillie, you are growing entirely too fast! This month has been nothing but milestones. First Christmas. First teeth. First trip to Indiana. First time meeting some of your grandparents. First time climbing stairs. First step. All of the firsts. We are so proud of you and so in love with your sweet personality. Slow down, little one!
(It’s getting harder and harder to take pics of this busy body 🥰🤣)
Sometimes our plans and timelines don’t match Go Sometimes our plans and timelines don’t match God’s plans and timelines. It can be a hard pill to swallow in the season. When He says wait, no matter how badly your heart wants to skip ahead. If I have learned one thing as an adult, it is that we can ALWAYS trust that He knows best for us, even if it doesn’t make sense. We can only see what is right in front of our face. He can see the entire map of our life, all the way to our final breath.

God. Knows. Best. I’m preaching this to myself today in the face of pauses that are not my own. In His infinite love, He works all things for our good and His glory. Trials are just testimony builders 💪🏻

Just a reminder (and one that I desperately needed Just a reminder (and one that I desperately needed), in these days of seemingly constant conflict. It’s so easy to spout off careless words sitting behind a keyboard. But words are not free. Words destroy. They destroy friendships. Communities. Hearts. Self esteems. Trust. Marriages. The minds of our children. And most of all, our testimony and the name of Jesus. Words are not free, and we will give an account for each one spoken recklessly.
