A little junk food and a lot of Jesus.

It's OK to admit you're not OK this week.

Last Saturday, I was exhausted. A little overwhelmed. I’ve said before that I went from a season of preparation to now a season of provision, and that season has required more faith than I ever imagined. Especially faith to trust that God will provide for my needs.

“I’m pretty sure that’s half my writing lol. Messy, chaotic, stumbling daily lol,” said…
