The quiet work God is doing

"The Lord will fight for you; you need only be still." - Exodus 14:14

Some days feel uneventful on the surface, but they carry a quiet undercurrent of God's work. Today is one of those days for me - nothing dramatic, nothing particularly noteworthy, just steady rhythm of home and family life. But as I move through the day, I keep sensing that God was doing something beneath the surface. A softening here. A strengthening there. A gentle nudge toward trust.

It's easy to overlook these subtle movements when we're waiting for big breakthroughs or loud answers. But scripture reminds us that God often works in the stillness, in the pauses, in the moments when we stop striving long enough to notice his presence. Greenville has taught me to appreciate this slower pace - the way the light shifts across the day, the quiet hum of ordinary life, the sense that God is near even when nothing big is happening. 

Maybe today isn't about accomplishing big things. Maybe it is about receiving something - peace, clarity, or simply the reminder that God is fighting battles we don't even see. It's our job to remember in these times that, that is enough. 

Where might God be working quietly in your life right now?

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems.

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
