Read Faves: Captivating

You know you're holding a classic when you have to dust if off after years of sitting on your bookshelf, and despite the yellowed pages... you find yourself excited to dive into the words that you've read years ago.

Every woman should read this! It cuts to the core of God's design of a woman. Instead of striving for you to be this and that, it affirms our longings as longings and desires from God. Our desires to be romanced and to be part of a great adventure are not outdated or old fashioned... it is exactly how God intended for us to be.

What this book does is to affirm women's identity and security in God: you are captivating!

PS. The counterpart of this book for men is "Wild at Heart" written by her husband, John Eldredge :)

Bridal Shower Ideas

Hey pretty ladies! Throwing a bridal shower for your dear friend soon? Here are some ideas that you may want to explore :)

i love You

Just sneaking in a post to share how God has been good to me all my life :) Somehow, no matter how much I try or anyone tries, I haven't felt loved and I couldn't love the way God loves me. When I talk to people and I try to describe God's love, every analogy falls short... simply because His love is just so much more intense and it's unconditional. For this post, I want to share the role that love plays in allowing God to be the Lord of my life. :) When we talk about Lordship, it usually entails a sharp intake of breath and begrudgingly opening our hands to release something that we have held on for too long... but Lordship can also be a natural response to what is already made complete in us. Lordship, at its best, is an expression of love. :)

This Thing Called "Grace"

I'll be off work for the rest of the month (yaaaay!) and I'm excited to just sit in coffee shops, with my notebook on hand, or to plop a pillow on the bed and catch up on my reading list... Excited for the quiet stillness that the next several days would bring. There are still merry making days and huling-hirit parties but there will also be quiet times in which I could t just soak in everything and I know that it will do my soul well :) With all the busyness that this season brings, just taking a few moments to take everything in will do you good too :)

Celebrate joy!
