(This post actually made its way into the book Is Jesus Worth It? chapter 2. Clearly, I needed to keep writing my way through it.) *** Fear has been bossing me around lately. The truth is, I’ve willingly let it happen. I’ve crouched under covers and cried hot tears. I...

A Good, Good Friday

When I first heard the song, "Good, Good Father" by Chris Tomlin I could not sing it. The words would form in my mouth but they would not come out. Maybe these Fresh Out of Amazing words will explain why: My family asked me to sing at Daddy’s funeral, and I couldn’t....

I'm feeling a bit battered and bruised these days. There are many reasons, but when it comes down to it, I'm holding on to a few things I need to let go of. I am holding on to: fear weariness good works approval Maybe you are too. I was reading today in the...

Happy Wednesday! Happy March. Spring is coming friends! I can feel it in the air. We had one more blast of cool air this week, but I do believe a new pair of sandals are in order to replace my fave boots that died a sad death last month! Happier thoughts...happier...

So today, being is Leap Day. One "extra day" to do whatever we do for the glory of the Lord. What will you do with your day? (cute magnets available @dayspring) I've been thinking about an interview I saw with Mary Tyler Moore and her cast of friends. What was said of...

Making Peace When You Just Can’t Fix It

Last week started with me dropping a dozen eggs on the cold tile floor of my kitchen. The rest of the week pretty much followed suit. And if I'm being entirely honest, I felt just as broken. I had planned on this being a tough week. My daughter was scheduled for a...

by Stacey Thacker | Jan 25, 2016 | endurance, Grow, oneword, Parenting | 1 Comment

Endurance is not losing heart. It happens to be my word for 2016. I'd like to choose another on days like today. When the doctor orders two big tests you wish like crazy you could do it for her. Oh what he is working in her heart and mine. "...we celebrate in seasons...
