I'm glad you are here. These short, 3 to 5-minute blogs are meant for moms who need some life-giving encouragement in the rare moments they might have some peace and quiet. Such as reheating a cup of coffee, right after getting the kids down for a nap and before you tackle the messes, or going "potty". (Yes, I know what it means to have those fingers under the door while I hide for a moment in the bathroom.)

​

In a culture that assures women they can have everything and still be a Perfect Pinterest Family, I starkly write the opposite: You can't have everything without losing your soul. And your marriage. And your kids. And your purpose. And your peace. Instead, seek first the Kingdom of God. The rest will fall into place.
