Filling Up on Jesus

 

Jesus is the only thing in this life that can truly satisfy.

He is the only thing that can fill our cups up to overflowing.

 

So learning how to get Jesus into our life everyday is crucial.

 

This area of the website is dedicated to encouraging you to do just that!

Together we will explore ideas for how to
  • keep our cups fill up with His Word and the Holy Spirit
  • empty our minds of the physical things that want to fill it but rather look to the spiritual
  • seek truth around the lies we hear in our heads
Ultimately I pray that we learn to lift up our cups to Jesus to fill, so that we can freely pour out to others.

 

Join us for a blog series starting November 2018 titled  ‘Lifting our Cups’ We will be exploring practical ways to prevent feeling drained. Find all the articles in the series here. (Be sure to come back each week for a new article)

Homeschool mama, does the new year look long? Are Homeschool mama, does the new year look long? Are you ready to get back to the daily teaching after Christmas break? Are you ready to face the long winter blues? 

Some friends and I created this devotional for you. It is filled with 140 five minute devotions to point you to our Rescue — Jesus. 

It’s a tool you should have beside you as you start 2021. Get your copy on my website or on Amazon.
A new podcast episode up!! It’s really pretty A new podcast episode up!! 

It’s really pretty self explanatory. 

I’ve been in a slump. 

I thought 2020 was going to save me from a tough 2019. 🤪 {wrong thing to think about 2020 lol}

In this episode I share three things I learned about getting through the slump. 
 💗 

Go give it a listen!
Christmas recap... told in the language of food. Christmas recap... told in the language of food.

We typically don’t have plans Christmas weekend. So a 2020 covid Christmas wasn’t very different for us. We have learned to create our own Christmas fun. 

Usually that includes a visit to @superior_pho. This time the girls realized who the owner of Superior pho was. They love the restaurant, so to them he is a very famous person... and when you see a famous person you ask for his autograph! 😀 Which is what they did... 

Unsocialized homeschoolers, eh? 😆

Then we have our annual penguin making with aunt @scharabby. Ethan’s yummy ham! (First try at a preparing ham🎉)

And our traditional egg rolls. 😃 We made 45 egg rolls and had 3 left by the end of the night 😂😂 

Anyways, fun weekend with lots of special (and yummy) memories!
This might have been a rough year, but God outdid This might have been a rough year, but God outdid Himself when he gifted us the weather today. 

A perfect snow for Christmas. 
Snow and sun 😍 

#dreamingofaWhiteChristmas #whiteassnow  #sopretty 

In case you think I love snow all winter... after the new year the snow can disappear and then we can skip to spring 😉😂

Merry Christmas, friend!!
Whoot whoot! I was so honored to be a guest on t Whoot whoot! 

I was so honored to be a guest on the Real Moms Show. 

Ok, to be honest, I am the gal in charge of planning the content and guests for the show ... so people didn’t have a choice but to allow me on to the show. 😀😄 

But how ever I got here, it was an honor.  The things I shared on the show was stuff I needed to hear more than anyone else. 

Sometimes life knocks us down. And satan loves to make us think all that is left is to throw up our hands and give up. But girl, look around, not to the news, but to your real actual life... there are still people you can love and serve... there is still a reason to dream. 

If you are a homeschool mama you should join TTD 365 so you have access to every episode of Real Moms show! The first two have been 🎉🎉 and we have a good line up planned for 2021

Quiet My Heart

The news report struck my heart with fear. The post on facebook filled my heart with anger. The email saddened me. Texts in a texting group stirred me up. Even the mailbox held a postcard that caused anxious thoughts.    All around me the noise was so loud. So loud.    The words to a […]

Satan is still a loser.

One of the tricks satan uses on me is to convince me that my words don’t matter. He convinces me to stop writing.   It’s a hard lie to sift through because that lie is partly truth — my words may not matter to anyone else.   But.   I need them for me. I […]

Sent

I love reading Heather Holleman’s books. Everything she writes is vivid! (My favorite of her books is “Seated”) This brand new book, Sent is one that she wrote with her hubby, Ashley. My biggest take away is odd I’m sure, but it’s a question I plan to start asking those around me “What do you wish […]

Something Normal

It was lovely to do something “normal”. 💗 Some laughs were had. Some tears were shed. Lessons learned. Friendships born. It’s pretty amazing how strong the connection is when you all know Jesus. It can feel like we’ve known each other for years. Do you have a group that surrounds you and lifts you up? […]

When we lived loved... other things fade to the background. Messy houses, piles of papers to grade, dishes to do, spelling words to review, multiplication flash cards ... if we do it because we are loved instead of FOR love; the difference is transforming! 
May we remember to live loved.
