The truth about serving God is that we won’t always understand why he allows what he allows. Pain, loss, and heartache are all apart of the humanity we live in. Jesus doesn’t eliminate the hard parts of life but rather joins us in our journey.

God has never not once kept good from us. He gave us Jesus. His son. His one and only son. It’s hard to see through the lens of loss and confusion. Heartbreak and disappointment. The whys aren’t promised but what is, is the good.

Friend, what is coming is not meant to replace what you lost, but to reinforce the goodness of God to give you the good from it.

Don’t stop believing! Don’t throw away your confidence in Jesus!! He’s not done with you yet!! ❤️

Romans 8:32…He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?

If you’re wondering how, we can’t know that yet. If you’re wondering when, we can’t know that either. If you’re wondering who, it’s Jesus.

There is nothing more that you can do but be obedient in the waiting. He’s the only one who knows the end from the beginning.

We are 2 days in and I already feel like there is a weight of fatigue. A lack of hope that leaves you motionless. Numb.

The wait has been long and hard and painful, but he’s not done. Believe me when I say I want to see the purpose in all of this just like you do. I want an end to the wondering and wandering.

Friend, if there is one thing I know it’s that Jesus has never not once lied to or quit on me or you. No matter the doubts that my heart has grappled with there is still hope. Hope that when he said he would finish what he started, he would.

Today, I am holding onto hope and hopefully you can, too.

Em ❤️

2025!! Wow!! Happy New year!!

I’ve made up my mind to not look back except for to remind me of how far I’ve come.

It’s easy to see what hasn’t happened and to point out all the bad and painful areas that are still here. Pain and the waiting has a way of directing our attention to what hurts most.

There are so many things I need Jesus to make right. So many areas that need his attention and touch. I have to remind myself that he sees every detail and is not far off, but close to me in my pain. He’s close to you and yours as well.

I’m entering 2025 with an expectant heart like a mother who’s expecting a child any moment. Yes, it may be uncomfortable and painful, but the promise and blessing that is sure to come will be worth it!

Wait with me, friends. Let us hold onto hope and focus our gaze on Jesus, who is sure to arrive just in time! ❤️
