Hi, Katie! I just want to give you a big heart hug. 🩷This is beautiful and I am so glad I happened to stumble upon your ‘stack. I am new to sharing my writing and it is totally fueled my Jesus as well. It’s so wonderful to find someone else that is trying to create a safe space to not only follow Jesus but rest in His grace. I will definitely be cheering you on as you go!

Your writing is my vibe! Haha I'm definitely looking forward to reading more. I felt this line so hard: "And He can handle all our kicking and screaming on the way there. He loves us too much to lose us." YES I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS. So good.

Hi Katie. I’m Kevin. I’m in my 50’s. Either you write like you’re older than being in your twenties or I think like I’m younger than being in my fifties or maybe a little of both. 😁 I love your ministry, here. Writing about truth is right up my alley. So is reading about truth, the fun and laughter. I love it all! I’m really thankful to God that he nudged be to join this platform. I’m so blessed and encouraged to find fellow believers who love Jesus and speak encouragingly about our walk of faith and love writing, creating, laughing, etc. Finally, please keep posting funny faces of you and your husband. That cracks me up! 😂🙏🏾❤️

What a beautiful intro.

“The farther we go into glory, the less we can bring with us. “ I’ve found this to be oh so true. But so be it: Further in and further up!
