Welcome! My name is Brittany and this website provides biblical encouragement for the world-weary believer. As someone who didn't become a Christian until my late teens, I know what it's like to fumble through the faith journey. I've had a huge learning curve over the years and made mistakes along the way. It's because of my own experiences I am passionate about helping those who are tired, discouraged, and unsure in their faith journey. Because I've been there I can relate and want to share with you resources that aren't merely Christian fluff, but are resources that provide practical insight and help as you find your way on this incredible journey with our beautiful God. I hope you'll stay a while and check out the resources on this page!

Finding God in Your Miscarriage

October 15, 2018

Brittany shares her deeply personal experience with miscarriage and how you can still find God in your pain and loss.

MY LIFE ACCORDING TO INSTAGRAM

It’s the shortest verse in the Bible but within its two words are some of the most compassionate you’ll read in Scripture. Jesus knew Lazarus was gone but he also knew his dear friend was about to be brought back to life. So why weep?

Perhaps it was the grief he saw those he loved experiencing. Many mourned the loss of Lazarus and Jesus knew the depths of those wells of grief many were experiencing. He felt the loss that those around him were feeling—he was feeling all the pain. He himself loved Lazarus and although life was ahead, the cost of death was still very real. Which brings the second thought as to why he may have been weeping—the cost of sin. Sin brings death and almost everyone Jesus loves had or would experience death.

In our grief, we are not alone. In our mourning, we share in it with another. Jesus wept for Lazarus but he also weeps along with us in our grief. He mourns with those who mourn because although he knows hope is ahead and death has been conquered, grief is still part of our journey on earth. That death is real, even if temporary. And that in that journey we go through depths of anguish and loss that rip at the soul. But he feels it too. Every ounce of pain is taken in and felt by him.

Though you may weep, you don’t weep alone. Your grief is shared with the Creator of the Universe. And no ounce of pain you feel goes unnoticed. He sees you and feels it with you.

Because it’s been too long since his face was placed right here for you 😍 #romanrust

You know that feeling of being so overwhelmed by life’s circumstances that you feel like a swimmer just barely striving to keep your head above water? Yep...that’s me right now 🙋🏻‍♀️. I’m in the hardest season I’ve been in in 6 years and just when I thought it would get easier, it got harder. The struggle got really real.
•
Sometimes life just doesn’t pan out like you’d hoped. Sometimes, instead of getting easier it gets harder. And sometimes it’s all you can do to stay afloat for the day. It takes every ounce of your being to hold onto your anchor in the storm—Jesus. But you’re not sure you can hold on much longer. It’s hard—I know!
•
I’ve wanted to write this post so many times over the last week but I’ve stopped myself midpost because I didn’t want people to feel bad for me. But I just feel like I had to share this struggle because I just know there are others out there right now feeing like they’re drowning in life’s circumstances too. For us who are here, how do we persevere and fight our way through this storm? How do we not lose hope?
•
JESUS. He is always the answer—every.single.time. He is our unmoveable anchor. Our guiding light and steadfast tower in the storm. When hope grows dim, his unshakeable nature holds fast in uncertainty. No other power can take the pellets pounding down unrelentlessly like His wing of relief over our weary heads.
•
“Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls.” Hebrews‬ ‭6:18-19‬
•
How do you and I keep our head above water until relief comes? Flee towards Jesus. Have confidence in Him, not the surroundings. Trust the anchor to hold until the storm passes. We aren’t guaranteed an easy, breezy life. But we are promised a steady Savior in the midst of our chaos and uncertainty. Are you anchored by Him? Tethered to his unwavering love and care for you? He won’t leave you alone in the storm. His door of hope is just ahead. Don’t give up, friend. This too shall pass.
