The Whole Story
Being a good Christian girl has not been a problem for me. What I mean by that is that I haven’t struggled with wild things or been particularly unruly. Ever. It just isn’t who I am. I like rules. I like to know what is expected of me. I want to know the right way to...
The Beginning of a Wholehearted Journey
This year I’ve started a wholehearted journey. And already, just a few weeks in, it has been rather unexpected. I don’t know about you, but over the past couple of years, I can’t say that I have been 100% engaged or committed to anything. It isn’t that I haven’t...
A Few of My Favorite Things all In One Place
I have wanted to do this for such a long time! But I have finally started building my own Amazon Store to put all the links and things I am loving! It is growing slowly, but if you want to start window-shopping you are always welcome! Just click here. As always, when...
Because He Bends Down To Listen, I Will Pray
Why Wouldn't We Pray? Psalm 116:2 has become the theme to my Threadbare Prayer Journey. "Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!" Psalm 116:2 I can't help but smile when I think about it. I found it about 13 years ago when my good...
God Sent the Mender: A Christmas Threadbare Devotional
I wrote Threadbare Prayer in December 2019. And as I sat in various Starbucks and Panera breads all over town writing and listening to Christmas music, God pressed on my heart to include a Christmas Threadbare Prayer in this pocket prayer book. And so, I tucked a...
Humility in Daily Life
A couple of weeks ago I started reading a book by Andrew Murray called Humility: The Beauty of Holiness. As is generally the case when I study something, God gives me grace-filled opportunities to learn in daily life how to apply it. Case in point. I recently dumped...
1 Year of Threadbare Prayer
Can you believe it? Threadbare Prayer released 1 year ago today. And, honestly I have you to thank. This book moved from my own threadbare heart to this blog first. Remember? You asked for more. Which gave me a push to send it to my agent. She happened to have a...
I’m Back!
Friends. It has been 8 months since my last blog post! I feel the need to re-introduce myself around here! In case we haven't met yet, I'm Stacey! I've been blogging for 12 years. Except 2021 when my blog went down. I have missed this space so much. I'm not sure...
What I want My Girls to Know
Psalm 136:1 "Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever." My girls are now 21, 18, 14, and 11. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of not only being their mom, but their teacher. So, we have been together a lot. Probably more than...
How To Journal Your Way Through Threadbare Prayer
I put words in a lot of places. I write notes on my phone, I make grocery lists on scraps paper that I almost always lose in the store, I have a journaling Bible filled with words in lined margins, and I still keep a daytimer that I saturate with notes-to-self and...
