Where’s Our Savior?
This was not my plan for Good Friday. And this was definitely not my plan for Easter. How many of us are saying this right now? We wish we could go to church, buy a new Easter dress, and have dinner with family and friends. Egg hunts are cancelled and many of us are left in a daze. Is this really happening? When the corona virus first hit my state, my husband and I just arrived home from vacation. We thought we were returning to normal, but in fact, everything had changed. I started working from home and Owen’s classes moved to an online format. We went from visiting with…

What Failure Taught Me About Surrender
Ever have one of those days when your thoughts seem to be haunting you? Lately, those days have been frequent for me. I feel as though God has been working on me about confidence and my identity in Christ, but my own mind likes to self-sabotage. Life is changing rapidly for me, as I am finishing college and will be getting a real “adult” job. The class and internship work is piling up, and now I know what my friends meant by the term senioritis. All of this is a recipe for stress and opportunity, and that also means failure. And I hate failing. I really hate failing. As a…

Easter Dresses + The Power of The Cross
Happy Good Friday lovely readers and followers! When you really think about it, Good Friday is quite sorrowful. It was the day Jesus was beaten and crucified for our sins. It was the day of our Savior’s death. Can you imagine how bleak things must have looked for the disciples that weekend? Of all the things they expected the Messiah to do, dying on a lowly cross wasn’t one of them. But there is tremendous power in Christ’s death on that cross. I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh…

OOTM: Denim + Scarves
Happy Good Friday everyone! Of course today will be a fashion Friday post, but I think we all need to take a moment to reflect on what God did on the day of Jesus’ crucifixion. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5 NKJV). The torture and bloody death of God’s Son on the cross was for our freedom from sin and bondage. It was for our healing. And now that He has risen from the grave, we can rise too! But the angel answered and said to…

He Died So You Could Live–Easter Fashion
It’s Good Friday! Today we remember the day when our Savior, Jesus Christ, died on the cross. Not only did He give up His life for us, but he also took on all of the world’s sins. Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” (Matthew 27:45-46 NKJV) Now we are forgiven; and if we call upon Jesus and accept Him as Lord, we are released and given eternal life! For God so loved the world…
