Proverbs 27:19 When you look into water, you see a likeness of your face. When you look into your heart, you see what you are really like. I’m not sure how I feel about this scripture right now. Situations come at us in such unexpected ways. From out of nowhere. From the people in our

Ouch
Ephesians 6:24 May grace be given to everyone who loves our Lord Jesus Christ with a love that will never die. These agave plants grow plentiful on my property in Honduras. Well over six feet tall, the thorns on the end are brutally painful when they come in contact with our fragile human skin. Hurts

Hebrews 6:19 We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain. Every day as our feet hit the floor, we are headed somewhere to do something and will be engaged in life until our head hits the pillow that night. How

Peaks and Valleys
Psalm 95:3-4 For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. There are so many scriptures about the mountains and the valleys. I can’t imagine climbing mountains physically or the feeling of fear as I

Shouts of Joy
Psalm 126:5-6 Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy! He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him. I took this picture last summer somewhere in Nebraska. Growing up on the farm, I have such fond memories
