His Ways are Higher…
Happy Thursday, sweet Rise and Shine friends!
Would you mind if I shared a little bit of my story with you?
As I am reading in God’s Word about the Israelites and idol worship and discontentment among the camp, I am reminded of areas of my own life that have mirrored our ancient Israelite ancestors.
For many years, I have desired more children. I envisioned a house full of kids with bookbags and toys and bedtime prayers rolled into a full and crazy day.
Don't get me wrong, my two children are huge blessings. However, I desired to mother more. I love mothering so much that I thought contentment would come if I had more children to love.
Good morning, Rise and Shine friends!
Seriously, I am on a roll with writing.
I am really trying to write more…because you know the old saying…”use it or lose it!”
So, here we are. :)
I sought the Lord…
Many years ago, I began blogging.
I began a family blog around 2008, and that is what began my writing journey.
Stories of my children, of friends, of happy times, of sad times…all of it are written in that little family blog from long ago.
So, as I share this story, it is in hopes that I will remember and never forget the absolute AWE AND WONDER of our God!

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD, for I hide myself in you. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.
— psalm 143:8
