I was scrolling through Instagram the other day, mindlessly perusing. Suddenly, this adorable girl posted this insanely cute sweater that I really liked. As I paused to read her caption, I was immediately overwhelmed by a need to buy the sweater. Never mind that I have dozens of warm, cute, well-fitting sweaters in my closet. […]

Letting Go of Beauty

Hey sisters, We’ve been hinting at something big that is coming to Life Lived Beautifully soon, and Monday is the big day! God has been leading us in a new direction for a while and after much prayer, we are finally taking the leap and following Him into the great unknown and changing our name! I can’t […]

Good Things In Store

Have you ever chosen a word for the year? My word for 2017 was actually three words: Walk In Grace. And I didn’t really chose it. God sort of dropped it in my lap and for weeks I kept coming back to that simple phrase: Walk In Grace. Those three words aren’t from one Bible […]

Walk In Grace

Mother’s Day is quickly approaching us and each year when this day comes around my heart becomes tender for the women who are hurting. Mother’s Day is not only a day we celebrate our mamas, but it is also a day we love those who are mourning a loss, desiring a baby, or feeling left out. There are women who have suffered miscarriages, women who have wayward children, women who are orphans, women who are grieving losing their mamas, and women who are mourning the loss of a child. You may be reading this and immediately identify with one of those descriptions, or you may be thinking about a woman who needs encouragement to her weary soul.

Noticing the Invisible on Mother’s Day

Some days the wish-dream of community I’ve been holding onto can prevent me from accepting and rejoicing in the reality of fellowship right in front of me. If you’ve ever been there, you aren’t alone. But what if we let go of those hindrances and embraced who God has put beside us today?

Wish Dream Community

How do we press on in truth and grace when the world around us is leaning toward what “feels” right? What are we called to in those moments? How can we be gentle but honest, kind but unwavering?

Introducing the “Give Me Jesus” Collection

The journey the Lord God takes us on is often unpredictable.

I know from my own experience that He takes our small dreams and rewrites them to be something better. In the process of dreaming, planning, praying, and seeking Him for direction, something beautiful and unexpected happens…He changes us. Life is not about the accomplishment of our dreams, the success attributed to our names, or the fleeting fame we may receive for but a moment. Life is about knowing Jesus and becoming like HIm. In God’s goodness, He often uses dreams to accomplish that.

Dream To Reality

This blog has gone untouched for a few months now. Partly because I’ve entered a new season of motherhood and have taken a step back to enjoy and learn the new rhythms of life. The other reason is because my soul has been wrestling. There are countless thoughts, numerous longings, and a plethora of lessons that my heart is mulling over every day. I’ve wanted to share them, but I hesitated because I wanted to wait to share until I fully understood them. However, the Lord has pressed on my heart to wrestle with you. My guess is, you also have wrestlings in your soul, questions left unanswered, and a longing for more than what you are living. This blog, this business, this ministry is not about perfection. It is not about cleaning up to come before God. It is about living with the end in mind or, as Jonathan Edwards said, with eternity stamped on our eyeballs. It is about making a difference in this world by following after Christ with every ounce of energy we have.
