Sometimes the pruning feels uncomfortable, but it’s always purposeful.

This weekend reminded me of the power of sisterhood, strength, and shared stories. As I stood among fellow breast cancer survivors at the annual LIFT Brunch, I felt a renewed sense of gratitude — not just for my own journey, but for the women whose testimonies continue to sharpen, strengthen, and inspire. With Women’s History Month coming to a close, I’m reflecting on the legacy we carry and the history we’re still writing together.

Growing up, a simple phrase from my mom shaped the way I understand and share God’s Word: “Put it down where the goats can get it.” For years, I struggled to read the Bible and apply it to my life, but through prayer, journaling, and devotionals, God met me in the everyday. This post shares how that journey led me to write From My Heart to Yours and why making God’s truth accessible — simple, honest, and relatable — has become the heart of my ministry.

Women’s History Month is a beautiful time to honor the countless ways women have shaped the world. Today I’m reminded that becoming a great woman is a journey!

There have been seasons where I tried to find my identity in how well I lived up to those titles. But the problem was this: I wasn’t including who God says I am in the measurement.

Before we hit the gas this week, let’s pause.

Even small moments count. Even quick pauses matter.

Is it just me, or has this year flown by? As we move through the winter holiday season, we also find ourselves approaching the end of 2025. Like many, I’m intentionally reflecting on what went well, what didn’t, and what I’m believing for in 2026.

True thankfulness is more than words. It’s a posture expressed in action.

For all my travelers this holiday weekend: pause and check your luggage. Are you carrying excess baggage?

Life doesn’t always add up the way we expect. You can give your all — to your marriage, your children, your career — and still feel like the math is broken.

But here’s the good news: God is a sovereign mathematician. He uses subtraction, division, and even wilderness seasons to prepare us for multiplication.

Endurance can be challenging. Just ask any athlete. They’ll also tell you it’s rewarding in the end—and the same is true for spiritual endurance.

When we hide pain, shame, or failure, we create our own mental claustrophobia. But freedom comes when we release it to God.

Some of the hardest assignments are where we grow and mature.

This is where we lock in and remember our why!

We are human. We will experience fear and doubt. And God invites us to be honest about those feelings. But the deeper question is: Can we have peace in the waiting? Right there in the storm?

Body language is silent and powerful. What story do you tell others with your body language?

What’s one thing on your heart that you’re hopeful for—right now and in 2026?

Do you ever feel like its hard to fit in?

Maybe you didn’t get the job. Maybe you didn’t make the team. Maybe that new women’s group looked so fun, but after your first interaction, it became clear—it’s not your place. And in those moments, it’s easy to assume something must be wrong with you.

A childhood phrase with spiritual weight: “You get what you get and you don’t throw a fit.” In a world full of comparison, God reminds us that His design is intentional — and His gifts are enough.

There are other seasons when we’re called to produce fruit, and our starting point is only a seed.
