Life is more than what we see in pictures. It's more than milestones. We all know that, right? But there is something about choosing to remember where you came from while still figuring out what and where you're getting to . . . even though you never exactly know what that will look like.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, for this anniversary, we took the kids plus one back to the places of our first real date twenty-five years ago. It all started at an art museum and a drink on the water. I thought that is what our life would look like together . . . fancy dates and no cares in the world. How wrong I was! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The life choices that we've made together has meant sacrificing the lifestyle I'm bent towards for the serving we've been made for. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

If there is one expression that keeps coming my way, it's this one. For the last year and a half, I've been leaning into an attitude of gratitude for what God has given me and I'm not kidding -- it's changed everything. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gratitude has indeed turned what I have into enough.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Actually, it's made me see how I have exceedingly abundantly more than I could ask or imagine. (Ephesians 3:20)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Is it time for you to go on a #gratitudeADVENTURE too?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You never know what you might uncover! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Have you ever felt like, "I just can't hear from God, it's like He doesn't speak to me"? I've often heard that from the teenagers I've mentored along with the women I've coached. Each time, I can't help but ask two questions:
What do you expect His voice to sound like?
What are you doing to tune your ear into His voice?
And each time, the answers sound very similar . . . like "Well, I don't really know what His voice might sound like," and "Honestly, not much. I don't really have time to read my Bible. And when I do, I don't know what to read." Can you relate?
You might imagine what my advice might sound like. Maybe you think I'd suggest a reading plan or something like that. But typically, if I remember to put my coaching hat on, even with the teens, I respond with:
Well, what is it costing you to not spend time in the Word, since that is where we'll find His voice and become in tune with it?
What are your thoughts about hearing God's voice?
Thank you, God, for your compassion and mercy, for being slow to get angry, for your unfailing love and faithfulness. May we never take advantage of you. May we be more and more like you through allowing Jesus to dwell more fully in our hearts and minds. In the Strong Name of Jesus, Amen.

God may we yield our hopes and dreams to you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Keep us from chasing meaningless distractions.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Reroute us away from anything that keeps us from being present to your purposes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Infuse us with an eternal perspective, that our hopes and dreams would ultimately be about your Kingdom. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In Jesus' Name, Amen.

God, forgive us for living like our lives our own. Help us to remember that we belong to you. May we yield to the course you're planning for us. In the strong name of Jesus, Amen.
