Are you being a good steward of your time? Two minutes on social media can easily turn into 2 hours. And on theflip side, we can book ourselves so tight we don't have time to toast a Poptart.

We all have those moments, don't we? The ones where the mask slips, and the raw, unpolished version of ourselves is laid bare. It's in those moments of vulnerability that true connection can flourish, and the incredible, boundless love of God becomes even more apparent. Shawna and Jody’s shared journey reminds us that our fragility doesn't diminish our worth, but rather, can open us up to a deeper understanding of grace. We are not alone in our struggles, and in opening up, we create space fo...
“As long as______, I’m Good.” How would you fill in the blank? As long as I have… good cup of coffee...the love of my family…enough in the bank….??? We long for pleasure, love, security. But let’s be honest, it’s way more than a good cup of coffee, a solid savings account or even an intact family unit can provide. God has created you with deep… DEEP needs that only He can fill. The good news is, He longs to meet those needs - not with stuff or even people - but with Himself. WEBSITE: ww...

In the waiting, in the wanting, in the in-between, you can trust God. You can even trust His timing. WEBSITE: www.jodyandshawna.com INSTAGRAM: @realsistersr...
