Hi friend!
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could just sit down together for a cup of coffee and chat?! I'd be drinking my favorite flavor (bourbon pecan torte, sweetened with my homemade creamer) and here's 3 things I can guarantee we would talk about...
- The Lord Jesus is EVERYTHING.
He alone is worthy of praise, and I can't wait for Him to return in glory and establish His rule when we will reign with Him for eternity! We are broken and we live in a broken world. As His people, we have a beautiful calling to declare the hope and salvation we get to claim in Him. In any given conversation, it just always has to circle back to Him - He's the only One worth talking about!
And He is the only reason my work has purpose; we're designed for relationships (whatever they may look like). Marriage is a picture of the intimacy He offers us - throughout the Bible, He refers to us, the church, as His bride. Every wedding gives us countless opportunities to know Him better, and to be a witness for Him to the people around us who are watching. As I help brides plan their weddings, we are reminded of the marriage feast Jesus is preparing for us (and us for it).
"Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready..." - revelation 19:7
- I was a wedding planner, florist, stylist, and women's ministry director in California.
I wore a lot of hats, and I loved it! But then I moved to north Idaho, combined my passions and experiences into one job, and do what the Lord's called me to do with this new desk view (see photo on right). Now I go back and forth between the states, because "have laptop, will travel."
- If I could be doing anything I wanted, it would either be hiking somewhere outside or creating something in the kitchen.
I love to hike (mountains or beach) and cook/bake/concoct anything from scratch in the kitchen. My favorite is when I can pick berries on my hike, then come home to bake them into a pie (or make elderberry syrup).
What 3 things you would tell me?!
Any good coffee date ends in prayer - friend, how can I pray for you???
