Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

Simple Joys

I am finding a deep sense of joy from simple things.  Seeing my kids do something they really enjoy.  Good food.  Eating.  A cold drink.  Not THAT kind....just a limeade or lemonade.  A cup of coffee.  The warmth of my rather ugly but comfy sweatshirt.  Time with a friend.  Even when I can't find the words to say what I want to.  Knowing that it's all ok.  Smile from a little kid at the thrift store.  Very simple things.  Yet, I can sense the joy.  And I can tell that the peace of my soul will be and is being restored.  Slowly.  Like water soaking through the cracks of the rocks.  But nonetheless, there.  Present.
Today refreshed my heart.
grace.
