⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I felt like sharing a ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I felt like sharing a quote from my new book tonight, as I think about where we are in our journey. 💗

We keep sowing and believing that good things will keep growing, despite all we are losing. 

I’ve been loved well all my life, how could I hold anything back now? How could I stop in these tender days when it’s needed the most? 

Life may feel tangled up in the middle of it all, but it’s not my job to figure it out. 

It’s my job to love.

There’s something about seeing things grow from dark places that always gives me hope. 💗
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I really love the sky. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I really love the sky. 

I feel little. 
It feels big. 

Yet somehow I feel seen.

I can breathe and feel like I’m going to be ok. The beauty of my Creator surrounding me as I look up as far as I can see. 

I just really love the sky.
