Take heart those who are covered by a winter cloud.
Woke up in my hotel room this morning feeling sick. Cancelled some plans. Took the morning slow. Found this quote and knew I would illustrate it. Can I be honest? I’ve been walking through a two-year winter. I’m longing for a sweet, sweet summer in my heart. Dear Jesus, bring us all some sunshine […]

You are loved
I taught on this verse this morning at the rewrite conference. It was an extremely quick piece because I have been super busy. Ah to bask in the glory of being loved.

What Every Christian Needs to Know about Passover
Every year, my husband Patrick and I lead a Passover Seder with several friends. It’s been one of the highlights of our year, and we’ve so enjoyed walking through the ceremony. I’m so grateful to have my friend Rabbi Evan Moffic on the blog today to share a unique (and accurate) perspective on Passover. … […]

Empty heart
“I have tried in vain to fill my heart with so many things other than You. Forgive me, Jesus, for running to acclaim, wealth, relationships and stuff. Because nothing can fill the empty heart quite like Your steady love.”

The joy of the fruit
I read this quote today and knew it would inform my art. A few days ago I messed around in my strawberry beds, relocating plants and anticipating good fruit come late spring. Then the “icepocalypse” came to Dallas, freezifying the dormant plants. Thankfully I’ve been a gardener long enough to know resurrection will come. […]

Is Jesus Enough?
Today I’m asking myself the question, Is Jesus enough? His answer is yes. His love is the only thing that satisfies our broken, needy hearts. He is enough. I get in trouble when I start believing other things fill better: success, acclaim, perfect relationships (ha!), financial stability, the “right” body, etc. No. Jesus is enough.

Happy Habits – 44
This episode is about the habits you want to create in your life. As God mentioned to me, “You can’t control outcomes, but you can control faithfulness.” And that’s the basis for healthy and happy habits. Scripture: Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the […]

Rest
“Sometimes God calls His children to rest, be still, and let Him work.” A very imperfect piece from the girl who can’t seem to take her own advice…
