with one eye open…

My friend stopped by with her freshly baked milk bread so I made tuna fish sandwiches for lunch.

I designed this poster for Chloe’s dorm room as a beautiful reminder of her true identity in Christ and the unshakable promises found in Scripture. May it call her heart back, again and again, to the immeasurable love of God that surrounds her and sustains her.

• Rejoice in suffering, for Christ suffered for you. (1 Peter 4:12–19; James 1:2–4)

• You are deeply loved, and in that love you are called and empowered to love others. (John 15:9–14)

• Nothing can separate you from the love of God. (Romans 8:37–39)

May these words remind her that she is never alone, always loved, and forever held in Christ.

Lord, I lift Chloe to You and ask that this poster be more than words on a wall—may it be a constant reminder of her worth and identity in You. When she faces trials, let her find joy knowing that You have already walked the path of suffering for her. When she doubts, remind her that she is deeply and unconditionally loved, and that love overflows into the way she treats others. When she feels alone, anchor her in the unchanging truth that nothing, that no fear, no failure, no circumstance, can separate her from Your love.

Father, surround her dorm room with Your peace, fill her heart with Your strength, and let her life shine with the assurance of who she is in Christ. 

on her life over her food cravings. 

we miss you already…

We have a lovely family who moved to our street this summer. We are so excited to get to know them. 🙂 I invited the mom over for a brunch and she brought me these beautiful roses with pastries.
