having a friend like anna mateffy who covers you up with blankets in the middle of the night because she noticed your blankets had fallen off.
slow mornings in a naturally-lit kitchen. (i'd recommend coffee, too.)
"come thou fount," loud, with mckenzie, driving in the country. (arm chasing wind out the window)
picking berries.
holland kabat. holland kabat i recommend for the soul.
heartfelt prayers and sweet long hugs in the sun.
longboarding along the chippewa river, sun on everything, delight and thankfulness on everything.
friends that feel like home because they love you like Christ and Christ is home.
streets that feel like old friends.
a kitchen full of people.
pancakes after church in a sleepy kitchen because it's cloudy.
katie ruff, living life. somehow just knowing that is good for the soul.
rolling wisconsin hills full of trees.
prayers uttered in an empty car.
reminder texts that "God's got you."
life is full of all of the things and all of the emotions, but gosh, love is dripped everywhere over everything when you know Christ. when you're hurt the most or confused the most or even if you're most content, His love is constant and good, just begging for thankful response.
