This song.

Thank you

Sehnsuct is a German word that means desire or yearning. C.S Lewis describes joy as a yearning for something not on this world and uses the word Sehnsucht to help describe that. Something like a piece of music, a movie, or any ordinary feeling can give you this. I thought Id start a placeto...

A good poem has a transporting effect.

Pray with me as I look for ways to help him shoulder the calling and responsibility he's taken on. I don't think he shares half the inner battle he goes through with me. It's been a tough year and I don't know when the pressure will lessen. Thanks in advance

Watching hair videos to relax after a long day with fussy baby. When I get fussy myself, I remind myself that its not my husbands job to make me happy but I must choose joy.

Not here to argue. God bless

Lord Jesus, come quickly

I really take a hit to my mood at night. Otherwise Id post more at night. At night I feel a bit down. Its definitely sleep time.
