A Much Needed Talk

So I had some pretty terrible cramps this morning. I was awake, pacing, for two hours. Ouch pain. But talking with God and listening to hymns actually always helps. So I prayed. A lot. About so many things. And it felt incredible. Honestly, I just need to make more time for Him. I mean we all do, and that's a given. But when I actually do it, it becomes so much more evident how healing and impactful the experience is.

We went to Karla's church today and there was such a beautiful message. The assistant pastor did a great job at being relatable and fun, but still so meaningful. It felt like a conversation. And one that I think many of us needed to hear. You can hear the same message a million times over, but sometimes you need to hear it in the right words. I want to share it with everyone. I just might!

Important Habits

Karla and I, along with her husband Eric and the two itty bitties, visited my dad today for Father's Day. We all sat down and enjoyed some lovely apple pie and ice cream. Before we started eating, Cristina said, "Daddy, let's have prayers!". So we all held hands and Cristina prayed for the food with her daddy. It warmed my heart beyond words. This is such an important foundation for kids and I'm touched that she is already making this a part of her life.
