Self-care can help us slow down, but it cannot reach the aching places beneath all our striving — the places within that still feel alone, empty, or invisible.

That’s why Jesus’ words in Matthew 11:28 feel so tender to me. He doesn’t say, “Come to a better routine” or “Come to a stronger version of yourself.” He says, “Come to me.”

Jesus is not only inviting the polished, productive parts of us. He’s inviting the weary, hidden, and wounded parts. The parts that learned to smile while carrying pain, that keep whispering, “I should be fine by now … but I’m not.”

Self-care asks, “What can I do to feel better?”
Soul care asks, “How do I need to let Jesus meet me right here in this hurting place?”

Maybe today soul care looks like placing your hand over your heart and saying, Lord, I am weary. Perhaps it means noticing the pressure you feel to keep everyone happy. Maybe it means telling Jesus the truth about the ache you usually try to manage on your own.

Self-care matters to God. Rest, food, and movement are gifts. But you don’t have to take care of yourself all by yourself. The One who made your soul is still saying, “Come to me” (Matthew 11:28).

And when you return honestly to His love, even with the worn-out places you barely know how to name, you are already beginning to receive the deeper rest your soul craves.

- Dr. Alison Cook

Where are you tempted to reach for a quick fix when your soul may be longing for loving presence?

"The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever."
~ Isaiah 40:8

As I was picking wildflowers last weekend while camping I was reminded of this verse.

It has been a hard year since my nephew died.

My faith has been weak ....one of my weakest seasons.
I have questioned Him,
I have yelled at Him,
I have been so angry at Him,
I have wanted to walk away from Him but I couldn't!

Guess where He went.....NOWHERE!

He stayed by me in all my honesty and weakness. He welcomed my honesty. I was reminded often during this past year of how many times David lamented in the Psalms. One third of the Psalms are prayers of lament.

Lament = a prayer or expression of deep sorrow, grief, or pain directed honestly to God, which ultimately moves from anguish to trust in His character

HIS WORD IS TRUE. No matter how we "feel".
He and I have had to push through this together. My faith is being rebuilt. I have described myself to some close friends as being a toddler in my faith.

I'm learning to pray differently.
I'm learning to sit still
I'm learning to listen
I'm learning to shut up

Nature has helped me with this. My eyes are beginning to see things differently.....
The birds do not fret.
Our new kitties trust.
Even the wildflowers know what to do without. a grand entrance.
I am focusing on the tiny wildflowers and their inticate beauty.
I love watching the bees do their thing perfectly.
My hubby and I watched a spider take her web down in 20 seconds flat!
I am in awe of our new horse and her past pain and choosing to trust and love again even though it is scary!

If you are going through a hard season keep talking to God. It doesn't have to be pretty or thought thru. He welcomes our rawness and realness.

He knows your thoughts and heart anyway.
Keep sharing and talking.

HE loves you so much and so do I!

We have been watching a deer family on our property. One mama had twins this season. So amazing to watch the babies learn how to walk to run and now jumping fences. Their footing has become steady and sure and their walk is forward.
Learning a lot from these babies 🩷🤍🩷
