I’m in full disbelief but it’s time for July Favorites! July was a fast slow month (if that makes sense?) and I already feel like I’ve missed half of August. I’m sure it’ll slow down once fall-time comes, right…? Anyway, here are a few things I’ve enjoyed or that have encouraged me this month.
Please be sure to leave a comment and share what you’ve been loving lately too, or feel free to DM me on Instagram. I’m loving staying connected with everyone during this time!

A Student of Culture, A Steward of Peace - “Do we care more about being right – or worse, being seen as being right – than we do about righteousness and redemption?” A beautifully worded reflection by Bailey of Stuff and Guff.
A Study on Ruth - "Disappointments come and I often welcome them into the doorway of my heart as if they were an old friend, creating a place for them to stay for a little while until they leave a mark of bitterness stained so vividly on my heart." Loving this blog series on the life of Ruth by Moriah Rice. So many good insights and learnings!
When God Says Shift - “God never called me to be an expert.” Wow, YES! I found myself nodding my head and relating to every word of this testimony from my friend Brandi of Undone & Becoming! So much freedom comes when we learn to shift when God says shift!
