Junebugs (Extended Version)

Tomorrow is a beautiful gift to her that she couldn’t wait to cherish, just as she cherished tonight: sitting in the side yard against the concrete wall beneath the Junebugs dancing in the glow of that streetlamp and talking about everything under the moon with the person she loved the very very most.

…Under the dancing Junebugs of this and every July starry night.

What Controls Today?

Not this fear. Not this mess. Not this world.
God writes today.
Every day I make a mess of my life, every day that fear strikes, every day that regret comes knocking, I remember that God is still the King.

Come You Who Are Weary

…and I will give you rest.” -Your Savior.

You are never too far gone. Never too dark or broken or dirty. Never too deep in the pit for God to reach in and take you out and set you in his presence of light and peace.

You. You have hope. Come. You belong. Welcome home, beloved; it’s been a long road ❤

The God of the Universe loves you and sees you and is reaching out to you.
