How could I choose any snapshot other than THIS ONE when Maverick made THAT face LOL! On another note, what are y’all doing this Mother’s Day!? I’m still contemplating what I should ask for! Last year Johnny made me a beautiful wood accent wall! I’ll share to stories tomorrow for those of you who haven’t seen it!!
We so often praise God when life is good... that's easy! But praise Him when we are going through trials? That takes a different kind of something.... And that something is exactly what we need.
We need to expect trials of various kinds; they are there for a reason and God can and will use each one for our good. Trials refine us, teach us, strengthen our faith. So let's not only praise God when He opens the door, but praise Him right in the middle of the storm!

This is our spin on what we call the “Over 55 Pose.” Have you noticed how our parents’ generation holds the phone a certain way to take selfies? I LOVE IT. And I convinced @jaredkole to practice with me. We’ve never looked better.
Because who doesn’t want to see a photo of the underside of someone’s chin(s) Please tell me you know what I’m talking about!

“Why is this happening to me?” Miscarriage. Dead-end career. Health challenges. Financial loss. Smeared poop all over the bathroom. (#notmine )
.
We want comfort, relief + closure, right? But look up comfort in the Bible. You’ll find plenty of promises of God comforting US + many commands to comfort OTHERS.
.
But 1 thing you will not find: Comforting ourselves.
.
I don’t know why x, y + z are happening in your life. But I DO know the God of all comfort + He promises to shower us with everything we need. Not just for ourselves—but so we can turn around + let it downpour over others too.
.
IT’S TUESDAY. Which means this devo is in my stories—if you want a face + voice behind the message, click on over. How has God comforted you when you needed it most?
Your worst quality might actually be your BEST quality. I appreciate the things that make my kids frustrating and difficult. Each one of them (and us) is created with qualities that should lead them into fulfilling a purpose in life. But, of course, those very qualities are attacked and can manifest as road blocks instead of bridges. As parents, we have the HONOR of helping to break down the blocks and build bridges. One of my kids struggles big time with anger. So I started teaching him about horrible things happening in the world. Things he should be angry about. I can’t change him. I’m not going to try. Only going to help him direct his qualities in such a way that they will produce good. I hope his anger motivates him and drives him to do great things. To help the hurting, the lost, and the abused. I use humor to teach him how some things aren’t worth our emotional energy.
.
Take a moment to think about the qualities that you hate about yourself. Or your kid. How might God want to use those very struggles to take you/him/her right to where you should be!? If you’re brave enough- tell me in the comments!

One of the most common remarks when people encounter this Hot Mess Express:
.
“Looks like you’ve got your hands FULL.”
.
I always want to laugh, respond wittily and cheekily:
.
Why do you say that, stranger friend?
.
The fact that I’m traipsing around, held together by dry shampoo and adaptogens, with 5 spirited kids, that we are in pre-adoption with our sweet Roadie Girl and still up nights with the happiest newborn (who’s gone from <5 lbs in the NICU to a chubby-legged 3 month old with the cutest slobbery smile), that we have a global business that’s one of the top 5 fastest-growing in the company and packing for Spain and a Mediterranean cruise with family and friends, that I’m kinda fitting in personal hygiene most days + trying to put work into our marriage and send funny memes to friends?! Is that what you mean?
.
When people make that comment, I usually just smile and wink, but the thought that always comes to mind:
.
✨If you think my hands are full, you should see my heart.
