Welcome!

Hi! My name is Melissa! I am married to my college sweetheart, Dan. We live in Springfield, Missouri with one very cute (and fat) cat. This blog is a window into my heart. I share the good, the bad, the ugly and how God is using all of it for His glory! Grab a cup of coffee (or whatever your drink of choice is) and let's do some life together!

An “Amanda sandwich” may be my favorite kind! 💚💚💚

If you ever wonder how I read so many books.......

I am missing this girl extra tonight. 💚

October is a special month for so many reasons. Two years ago, I wrote a blog about my thoughts on the month, and Kingdom Winds shared that article today. Check out the link in my bio to read what I STILL want you to know about October! . . . #livingborderless #faithblogger #christianlife #womenintheword #womenoffaith #heisfaithful #godisincontrol #takecouragemyheart #hesinthewaiting #believingformiracles #cultivatewhatmatters #shereadstruth #confidentlyrooted #KingdomWinds #KingdomWindsCollective #KWreads #KingdomWindsPublishing #kingdommindset

October 15 is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. On this day, every year, families across the nation light candles for their babies. . So tonight, I will absolutely be joining the wave of light for my precious two babies... the babies who made me a Mama. The babies who have changed my life, and the lives of many. . However, when I was thinking about lighting a candle, I couldn't help but think it's a beautiful reminder. Darkness runs from light. When a candle is lit, the darkness has to go. Light and darkness can't take up the same space. Light always wins. . Losing my babies were some of the darkest days of my life, but as I think about all the candles that are going to be lit tonight, I can't help but want to shout. Every candle lit is making the darkness run. Tonight, I will honor the babies I never got to hold while also celebrate that I don't have to continue to live in the dark. . . . #livingborderless #faithblogger #christianlife #womenintheword #womenoffaith #ttccommunity #ttcsisters #heisfaithful #godisincontrol #takecouragemyheart #hesinthewaiting #believingformiracles #kingdommindset #cultivatewhatmatters #shereadstruth #confidentlyrooted #waveoflight #october15thispregnacyandinfantlossawarnessday

I got home yesterday from the third annual @momsinthemaking conference and my heart is still unpacking so much truth and goodness. It’s funny that this is the book I was reading before AND during the conference, because this book is ALL about intimacy with the Father. I will give you one guess what one of the biggest themes of the conference was...😉 . In this book, the author explains how important it is to be close to Jesus. He shares personal stories and points out areas that may be hindering you from getting closer to the Father. He talks about the power that comes when we walk in the authority that comes from walking close to the Father. . This book will change your walk with the Father, because when we have new revelation of the Father’s love it always changes everything. I highly recommend this one! No matter where you are in your journey with the Father I think it will encourage you and make you hungry for more! . . . #womenintheword #goodreads #readwithme #womenoffaith #groundedintruth #growinginhim #confidentlyreading2019

Sometimes waiting can feel really lonely. So, about 13 months ago I started dreaming of a way to remind myself daily that I wasn't alone. This map was born from that desire. . All of the push-pins represent a person (or several persons) who are praying for our sweet miracle. Those names have been written in a journal and will one day be given to our miracle. . When I started to put the push pins in the cities, I couldn't help but be overcome by emotion. Not only am I so not alone in my wait... there is an army of people loving our sweet baby before He or She is here. . I have said for a long time our babies will be generation changers... and I'm incredibly thankful for the prayers of agreement. Thank you for loving us in our wait! . . . #livingborderless #faithblogger #christianlife #womenintheword #womenoffaith #ttccommunity #ttcsisters #heisfaithful #godisincontrol #takecouragemyheart #hesinthewaiting #believingformiracles #kingdommindset #cultivatewhatmatters #shereadstruth #confidentlyrooted

These are my girls... all in one photo... my heart could literally explode. 💚💚
