When God Feels Silent: Finding Him in the Little Things
When God Feels Silent: Finding Him in the Little Things “And God said, ‘Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food.’” —Genesis 1:29 When God feels silent, even the smallest reminder […]
Trusting God With Your Future When You Don’t Know What’s Next
Trusting God With Your Future When the future feels uncertain, we can find peace in remembering that God knows your future. We may not know what comes next, but we can trust that He knows the end from the beginning and will faithfully lead us. Don’t Assume You Know the Ending In my quiet time […]
Happy Monday?
Here we are again on a Monday morning seeking to make space for God. The purpose of our Abiding Space blogs is to help us together figure out how to not just insert Christ into our daily lives, but to make Him the center of all we do. Our lives can be frantic, overwhelming, and […]
Aging is a Gift
This is a blog I have wanted to write for a long time. I have observed that as women age, their self-confidence is impacted. We hear a lot these days about our identity being in Christ, not to focus on our identity being in our profession, finances, relationships, or appearance. But we all know that […]
What Are You Waiting For?
When was the last time you had to wait for something? In this world of instant messaging and same-day deliveries, we are trained to avoid waiting at all costs.

The Syllables of Scripture
Last week, I shared a bit about how God has met me and formed me as I run. I started running in high school and have continued running regularly ever since. And even though I’m not running long distances right now, the lessons I learned in more serious seasons of training have stuck with me, […]
