shedding light.


I have discovered something new about honesty.

Honesty is not an option I get, 
honesty is an act of obedience.

Honesty is not weighing the outcomes 
of what may or may not happen 
dependent on my truthfulness.
Honesty is being transparent 
and believing that God will take care of the rest. 

Doing the obedient thing 
doesn't mean we have everything figured out 
and in our control before we act, no we obey and trust — 
we obey and believe in a God 
who in His sovereignty knows what to do next.

If we were created to be children of the light, 
let's live like children of the light.

life lately has looked like this...

engagement photos - done.


wedding band - purchased. 
(Four months and counting!)


Jon's fantastic building skills (a true Arkansan cutting board).


My beautiful Christmas present from Jon - a sewing table...



 This sleepy little possum who lounges around my house without a care in the world...
