Home Is Where The Heart Is...


Got this card in the mail today from my Mom...
reminded me of how thankful I am for all my "homes".

Whether you have walls built around all your things
or they have crumbled to the ground

Lets be thankful for the "walls" built around the most precious of our belongings...the core of us that most often leads us on every one of our journeys...our hearts!

Let's join together and thank our Lord for both our earthly and spriritual homes, lift up those in Haiti that have watched their physical homes fall apart, and pray for comfort and restoration for their homes that dwell in their hearts.

Got You Where I Want You...

Welp it is here!! (I say this with excitment) Matt has graduated from Law School, we put all of our belongings into storage, said "Fairwell" to San Antonio (where our best friends are), moved into a room at the retreat (my work), started the super intense prep for the Bar Exam, haven't the slightest clue of where we will be living in a couple months nor what our jobs will be, and have settled in to a simple yet FULL new phase of life!

I honestly think that we are (right now) dwelling in the house of our great Lord. Yes, with all of our belongings and more importantly; pieces of us scattered between, San Antonio, Killeen, Houston, Waco, and DFW (all convieniently located off I-35)...in the midst of this unorganized, frazzled-craziness we have found that we are RIGHT WHERE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE!

I am aware that for EVERYTHING there is a season and that we will move on from this one, but my prayer is that Matt and I will never choose to leave this pure and sacred place we have found in our hearts.


I only ask one thing from the LORD. This is what I want: let me live in the LORD’s house all my life. — Psalm 27:4
