Get Unscripted
Love learns. I'm saying this out loud (to myself) ”My husband is not a problem to solve or a tension to manage. He's a person to love.”😍
•
I can get this so wrong sometimes. You may know him as ”Grandpa Sean” (that's what his incredible volunteer team members call him now) But I often know him as the wonderful father of my two boys and the guy who could go for days without really speaking a meaningful word to me until I remind him my primary love language is kind words. 😂😂😂
•
But I woke up this morning and I noticed I was spending more time in ”problem-solving” mode than in ”mindful appreciation” mode in this relationship of mine. And this is a kind of prison for me.
•
When I feel neglected I can get downright nasty. If you struggle with this too I'd like to pray for you. And please pray for Sean. Capturing photos each day for all things YTHX and prepping for LOVE WEEK has him wound quite tightly. 😂

GLORY - Please join us in wishing Erin “the hammer” Hummel the happiest of birthdays. She’s an incredible wife, mother, friend and @elevationekidz leader who’s taught me so much about what it looks like to follow Jesus.
•
She’s fearless, focused, faith-filled, and fruitful. You won’t see her stopping to pose for a photo. But you will see her stop to hug a child or pray for a friend. If you know her, you are blessed. What’s your favorite thing about this phenomenal woman?
Our world is so noisy
With so many voices and thoughts and opinions.
If I allow it, I'm tempted to think about and write about all kinds of important, practical things.

To ask you to pay attention to your need for sunshine, education, or fresh air.
•
But this moment, I feel the only thing necessary is to invite you to slow down your racing heart.
To invite you to breathe deeply...
and to remind you that your very personal God is at work on your behalf.
•
He's in that breath you're breathing, right now.
His love is in you and around you.
He's there.
In the sunshine that warms you.
He's there.
In the breeze that tickles your skin.
He's there.
In the gentle rain that cools you.
He's there.
In that text message you just received from a friend.
He's even there in your dirty dishes and unread emails
and unanswered questions.
And if you take a few moments to notice him here...
You'll find His love easier to hold onto, when you're there... in the inevitable difficulties of your day.
•
Lord, help us notice you today...
To see you in all the personal and practical ways you touch our lives and give us hope.
•
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
Romans 15:13 NIV
”It doesn't have to make sense, to work.” Thank you, dear Dustin for your incredible ”fish for people” reminder that sometimes what we’re going through has little to do with us, and a lot to do with those we have the opportunity to love or lead.

So great being in the company of such beautiful, brave, creative ladies today in Mint Hill. Thank you for inviting us and giving us space to build friendships as we keep growing up and showing up in our lives. P.S. And yes, I know big girls wear shoes. I did. And then they hurt. And that's the real me. 😂
Sarah is the definition of classy!! Beautiful and Smart…and well accomplished!! I give her a 10 out of 10
