By God’s abundant love Nehemiah Paul Muñoz joined us July 22, 2020!

Nehemiah: “God Has Comforted”
Paul: “Humble, Rare”

Welcome to the world, little man. We pray with all our hearts that you will be graced with bold, humble, one-of-a-kind faith like your biblical namesakes. Your name also reminds us that the Lord has and will always be our family’s source of solace and strength.

Dear one, your life is such a gift to us. 🥰

“You need to be teachable, little girl. Mama’s

“You need to be teachable, little girl. Mama’s only trying to teach you what works, what is good.”

As I tenderly say this, I catch a flash of frustration and resistance cross her eyes. In it I catch a reflection of my own perfectionist self.

Right now she’s at the exciting age where so many new foundational skills are taking root - from reading and handwriting to throwing a frisbee and swinging solo. There’s so much ahead of her, and I want her to learn to welcome wisdom.

I want her to know that mistakes can be beautiful windows of opportunity to treasure the perfection of Christ and to discover anew the way that’s right and leads to life.

“Get wisdom - how much better is it than gold! And get understanding - it is preferable to silver.” Proverbs 16:16

But due to our natural bent toward pride, such a habit is hard to form. Growing up, for so long I stubbornly clung to my ways and sought out accomplishments to prove my worth to the world, only to have inevitable moments of failure crush me.

❤️ Now, with Jesus, my mighty yet meek Savior, I’ve realized that humility is gold. That to be truly wise is not refusing to learn, but to keep learning good until my dying day.

👉🏼 You and I have to ask ourselves - have I been teachable lately? Do I listen when my spouse or fellow believers speak correction or counsel into my life? More importantly, is my heart soft toward the Lord and His Word, when He desires I change according to His will?

📖 I have this memory verse nearby: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, fools despise wisdom and discipline.” Proverbs 1:7

I teach it to my kids, but oh how I need to preach it to myself.

Oh, how I long to be so full of Jesus that this may ring true. Help us this day, oh Lord, to “spill” over the blessings of the Spirit upon others, no matter what comes our way. May we abandon bitterness and may our cup “runneth over” with His love.

Right now I’m loving the meditations written by the incredible missionary Amy Carmichael in the little booklet, “If” on the mysteries of Calvary love. Go find it on Hoopla or Amazon, you won’t regret it. ☺️

“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.” Psalm 23:5-6

No matter what the date is, it’s always awesome

No matter what the date is, it’s always awesome to rejoice in the freedom found in Christ. . . To rejoice in how His streams of mercy never cease! Last July 4th and this one were complete opposites - (swipe to last photo). I’m beyond grateful. Hope you and your families had a special day! ❤️🙌🏼💙 Let’s ever be praying for our country.

What are you longing for right now? Maybe an In-N-Out Burger? 🍔🍟👀😁 (#pregnancycravings) Or perhaps a nap? A “good job” at work? Or a break from COVID headlines?

Behind all these everyday longings are soul-deep longings that cannot be fulfilled here. A place where there is no hunger. A place of unbroken rest. A place where work doesn’t tax our bodies. A place where peace reigns and viruses don’t exist.

Such a place can only be had in the Kingdom of God, and the only way there is Jesus (John 14:6). Listen to those longings, they point you to Him. He promises not only all of these things in the world to come - heaven - but a soul satisfying relationship with your Creator both now and forever.

He will redeem all things. And we were made for eternity. . .For Him.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. (Ecclesiastes 3:11, ESV)

What relief this can bring to our hearts. . .if we believe it.

The other day I wrote this to my blog’s newsletter friends:

⭐️ Christ tells us directly in John 15:5, "I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing."

🌿 Whatever you're about to tackle right now - whether out in the world or within your own home - it's time to lean into Jesus. To recall that you are a branch, a branch who must depend on the vibrant graces of the Vine every minute.

🙌🏼 There’s no way you can do the work without Jesus. He gives you breath, and He gives it meaning. That's true for ANY season or situation.

👉🏽 This truth is humbling, convicting, and reassuring.

Humbling to realize we need Him even for the tiniest of tasks. Convicting if we sense we’ve been mustering our own strength and understanding instead of seeking His. . .and yet reassuring if we confess that self-sufficiency and rejoice that He promises to sustain us to do His will for today.

🌱 This process is about abiding - about resting in His power, His purpose, and His glory. Then, and only then, will we bear much fruit of eternal value.

🤔 So the question is: Who are you relying on? Yourself, someone else, or Christ?

🙏🏼 Let’s go to Him in prayer, acknowledging that He is who we need.
