My goodness, that’s so right. God is teaching us to be faithful in this life, this day. Learning this one over and over again. Adding Deeper to my TBR. I clicked the poem link and nearly died when I realised it was mine. Thanks!

Your comment on rejoicing when circumstances align is spot on and I love the love the C.S. Lewis quote you shared. I missed the women’s conference, but I’d love to hear about your prayer organizing method!

1. I always love your book recs. Deeper is on my list already, the Abbey Wedgeworth books are in my house already, and now I might need to add the others to the library list.

2. We took our kids to Dollywood last month too and it really is just a dream. I always tell my husband it’s like a much more relaxed, lower stakes version of going to Disney. I’m here for it.

So glad to hear you’ve been loving the book recommendations! 📚 And yes, lower stakes Disney is the perfect way to describe it! I want to go back in the spring to see all their flowers! ☺️
