LOOKING FOR SOMETHING?

Heading west and unplugging for some extra-present sweet family time. Enjoy all of God’s goodness around you this week! 🙏🏽💗

This is what my face looked like yesterday. It didn’t feel appropriate to say “thank you” when complimented, because I know how little I had to do with it.

You see, my friend Steffany @_capella_ gets the credit. She is the ARTIST. I’ve seen her work many times and I’ve had the opportunity to be her canvas twice.

She has a way of taking everyday beauty and making it exquisite, while keeping you looking like yourself, only way fancier and far less tired.

What can I take credit for?

I get full credit for showing up late, staying still, looking up or down, and blotting. I’m the CANVAS.

The canvas doesn’t get to take credit for the art.

Truth be told, I don’t always like being the canvas. Because most days, a plain canvas feels pretty unworthy of the artist’s masterpiece that is on it.

I find myself wishing I was a better version of me- more on time, more organized, more thought out, more calculated, more clear and concise, and just generally better than I am. Then maybe I would feel more worthy of the artist’s work.

But if it could be deserved, it wouldn’t be a gift.

This is the good news my friends- we didn’t deserve grace— the gift of God is eternal life in Christ, and He gave it anyways.

God is the Artist and He completely covers up all of our sin, shame and shortcomings with Jesus, past, present and future.

If the canvas could turn themselves into a masterpiece, they wouldn’t put the artist on display.

So tonight, I’m grateful. Grateful to be a plain canvas whose sin, shame and shortcomings put the Artist on display. Grateful for a sweet friend who reminded today around the table with mutual tears about what is true. Grateful for God whose love is secured in Jesus Christ so I never have to wonder if how He feels about me has changed.

Grateful that I know all to well what this canvas would be like on her own, so I can always point you back to the Artist.

Talk to God the Artist tonight; Trust me, He’s always on the look out for a new canvas to display His glory. “For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” Ephesians‬ ‭2:10‬ ‭NLT‬‬

What do you allow to define you? Mark your calendar: August 23rd! 💙🙏🏽#overcomermovie Thanks @grafmartincommunications

When you had such a great weekend at @pathwaychurchcalgary family camp that you only pulled out your phone to take a picture at the very end. This is a small sampling of the wonderful people and fun we had as we took a nice PAUSE from the hustle and bustle to “be still and know that He is God.” To access the storm shelter, be still, let God speak and say back, I will trust you. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore, WE WILL NOT FEAR.... the storms; we have an all-sufficient shelter! #family #church #belong #enjoylife #withGod Pathway peeps, what was your highlight? 👇🏽

Sometimes, you simply need sleep, proof that we are dependent on God. Life is often looking up after a nap. #lifeslittlemoments #everydaytruth #rest #sabbath #embracerest

How this little man made it through the playoffs with his daddy’s crazy, loud cheering. Without his “eawmuffs,” he was not a fan of our fan. With them, oblivious and happy. #wethenorth #dowhatyougottado #tooloud #raptors #raptorfanintraining #since95 #diehard
