Welcome to my Dream!

Y’all, I’m So Glad You’re Here!

From what started as a dream in my morning journaling time, in 2015, as I was home with my homeschooled boys, wondering if I would make it through another day. I wrote an entry then that said, “I want to write a book one day to help the woman who may feel like I do today.”

Eleven years later, you are witnessing the launch of my website that is the beginning of my Author Journey. And let me tell you something; there is something sacred about beginnings.

Not because they are loud or grand, but because they are full of intention. I had the intention placed on my life to serve the same women that I once needed in my life. But. God. He provided me the way, the time, the faith, and the intentional servanthood.

And today, this space begins. This space exists because of a lot of prayer, questioning, and even more resistance to the thoughts that were trying to overtake my desires. I never let satan have a seat at my table. It did not look perfect, ever, but it was enough.

I prayed over the smallest seed, the mustard seed, I prayed over it and my journey; as the Lord unfolded it. He reminded me daily of this…

He replied, ‘Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, “Move from here to there,” and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.’
— Matthew 17:20

I have been quietly building this space with you in mind. I have been praying over what words that you need me to share with you. I have been praying over the journey to your freedom in Christ. I have just been praying. A lot.

I have created you some spaces; a place to pause, a place to reflect, and a place to return to what matters most. Jesus.

Our mundane days can move quickly, our days fill up, the responsibilities stack, the checklists that give us such satisfaction to check off…But. Somewhere in the middle of it all, it becomes easy to live around what matters…instead of within it.

This space is an invitation back to presence, purpose, and a steady, grounding truth of God’s presence in everyday life.

If you stay here long enough, (and I sure hope that you do) you will notice a rhythm. It will not of be perfect, but it will be prayerful and intention.

You will find pieces of what I am learning in real time, moments I am still walking through and truths that I am still holding onto. My faith journey has not been about having all the answers, it has been about learning to notice.

To notice where God is working.
To notice what He is shaping.
To notice what yesterday quietly taught me.

That is where What I Learned Yesterday was born. You will see that as my brand-line in my day to day. I want to you grab the practical ways to see the joy in the mundane. In the messy. And in the noise.

Come, Stay a While. Invite a Friend.

But…before you go, I want to leave you with this:

There is something God is teaching you, now, in your current circumstance. I want you to notice Him among the rubble.

Thank you for being here at the beginning; it means more than you know.
