Musings of My Daily Life
“May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands…” Psalms 90:17
Welcome to my little corner of the world — a place where muddy boots, rescued animals, quiet prayers, and the slow rhythms of homesteading all weave together into something a bit messy, a bit holy, and entirely real.
Here, I share the everyday moments that shape this life: the joy of watching a frightened animal learn to trust again, the stubborn hope that grows in a garden bed, the unexpected lessons that come from living with chronic illness and disability, and the way faith threads itself through all of it — sometimes loud, sometimes whisper‑soft.
This blog isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence.
It’s about learning to navigate rescue work with compassion, homesteading with creativity, and disability with honesty and grace. It’s about finding God in the ordinary — in the barn aisle, in the kitchen, in the quiet moments between chores, and in the challenges that stretch the heart.
If you’re drawn to stories of resilience, gentle faith, animals with big personalities, or the beauty of a life lived a little slower and a little deeper, you’re in the right place.
I’m glad you’re here.
Let’s walk this path together, one small musing at a time.
Is Praying Enough?
Our latest blog post digs into a question many of us wrestle with: Is praying enough when life feels overwhelming? This winter has taught us a lot about faith, neighbors, and what it really means to show up for each other.
A Heart Learning Selflessness
This week on the blog, I’m sharing a piece of my heart and the lessons God is teaching me about humility and selflessness. It’s a story of faith, marriage, and learning to love the way Christ calls us to. If you’ve ever wrestled with putting others first, this one will speak to you.
Finding God in All Things
This week on the blog, I’m sharing a reminder that God isn’t just found in the big, miraculous moments—He’s present in the ordinary, the messy, and even the hard. Finding God in All Things is a look at how His fingerprints show up in places we often overlook.
Finding Peace When Life Feels Heavy
This week on the blog, I’m sharing what it looks like to seek God’s peace in the middle of exhaustion, uncertainty, and the weight of everyday life. If your heart has felt heavy lately, this reflection might be the breath of calm you need.
The Long Walk
This week on the blog, I’m sharing a powerful story my husband wrote — a story of survival, grit, and the long walk that literally saved his life. If you’ve ever felt alone in your struggle or unsure of your next step, this one will speak to you.
When Pride is Purpose
Yesterday taught me a powerful lesson about pride, purpose, and the people who show up when it matters most. If you’ve ever struggled to ask for help or wondered what “good pride” looks like, this week’s blog might speak to you.
Saying Yes
If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in routine, saying “no” out of habit, or living life on autopilot, this one’s for you. Inspired by Yes Man, farm life, and the quiet ways God nudges us forward, this post explores how small, Spirit‑led yeses can open doors to healing, friendship, purpose, and a life that actually feels lived. It’s about obedience, courage, community, and the unexpected blessings that wait on the other side of a simple yes.
