I had the opportunity to have a couple of days off, which were amazing. I spent yesterday with my nieces, which was fabulous. It’s been a long time since we were able to just spend time without it being a socially distant activity. There’s something amazing about an almost 5 year old snuggling in on… Continue reading Beauty in the Broken

Unforced rhythms
This is a little something different. As I was reading and meditating on this passage, I found I had things to say about it. So here’s a devotional, as it were.
