We’re at the park, and she’s happily bouncing, We’re at the park, and she’s happily bouncing, amazed by the big trucks driving by, never wanting to stop going down the slide, smiling constantly — and I’m laughing with her, amazed at her joy and think — Is this what God feels like with me as His child? 

Delight. Lightness. Wonder. Love.

I was filled to the brim with it, covering every crack and reaching every corner. And then I realized — this. is. it. 

This is how I operate in the world. 

I felt so... whole... not because of my efforts at wholeness but because I have God and He has me. (Psalm 23 rings loud: with Him as my Shepherd, I lack nothing.) 

The best I can do for myself is accept and live in His love, especially when mistakes and lack and circumstances scream reasons I can’t. And the best I can do for others, those under my roof and those on this platform, is to extend invitations of His love through my own and through His Word. 

If your life has told you He doesn’t want to love you or know you, I’m here to tell that He does. It’s waiting for you, probably even pursuing you... it just takes a Yes of faith. 

Message me if you want to talk about it; I would LOVE to hear your story, no matter how different we are. 

You're not forsaken,
You're not alone
His love is unending
So know it well
Remind your soul,
remind your spirit,
remind your heart
The love of the Father
Know it well

“I told you about my life, and you answered me; “I told you about my life, and you answered me; teach me your statutes. Help me understand the meaning of your precepts so that I can meditate on your wonders. I am weary from grief; strengthen me through your word. Keep me from the way of deceit and graciously give me your instruction. I have chosen the way of truth; I have set your ordinances before me. I cling to your decrees; Lord, do not put me to shame. I pursue the way of your commands, for you broaden my understanding.” Psalms‬ ‭119:26-32 CSB‬‬

“We must reflect that, when we reach the end of “We must reflect that, when we reach the end of our days, our life experience will equal what we have paid attention to, whether by choice or default. We are at risk, without quite fully realizing it, of living lives that are less our own than we imagine.” William James

With the help of God, may we strive to become abiding and attentive people instead of distracted and defeated people.
The entire thing is He loved me first. And even wh The entire thing is He loved me first. And even when our surroundings are burning or when all we see is rubble, there is an unseen Kingdom to serve, a Family to be part of, and a powerful Love to give and receive. 

Every week it seems I’m inspired by a comment a friend and pastor made years ago — “Don’t be afraid to talk to someone about the truth of Jesus. Think of it as joining a conversation God might already be having with that person.” 

May we be conduits of that strong, courageous, welcoming, comforting, healing, transforming, sustaining, peacemaking, eternal Love. Or as Bernice King said, “Love puts in work.”

Such brokenness we see, such pain, such fear. Attend to Jesus — Lord, Savior, King — with all your honest thoughts and feelings, and let His power and love change you. Let Him form and re-form you into a help for the hurting, a bright spot for those in the dark, a presence for others to rest in. A ‘little Christ’ on the earth.

Living life with the Holy Spirit — “you fulfil Living life with the Holy Spirit — “you fulfill the will of God through the inner influence of His Spirit instead of the outer influence of the law of God” (David Guzik).

This took me probably 15 years of following Jesus to grasp. It felt too easy, my willpower was my measuring stick, and the freedom was terrifying. 

But alas, God’s way is the best way, and there is no substitute for the Holy Spirit. I can’t muster spiritual fruit, but His goal, thankfully and marvelously, is vineyards and vineyards.

May we surrender this work to Him.

Join My Beautycounter Team

What if you could provide your family, friends, loved ones and yourself with clean, pretty, high-performing and safer products? And what if the opportunity was also rewarding financially and could help you reach personal, work, home, ministry or generosity goals?

A few reasons to consider joining me…
  • Eating well, exercise, and living a healthy lifestyle is valuable to you
  • You enjoy makeup and skincare, even a little bit
  • Impacting the environment positively is something that matters to you
  • You are pregnant or just had a baby, and you’ve started checking product labels for the ingredients you can’t use
  • Save on the things you already buy
  • You’d love a job you could do from home, in car line, during nap time or any other time if you have access to the internet :)
  • Advocating for safer products is a goal you can get behind
  • You can build your own team
  • Organic and natural products are important for your kids, but not so much for you or your spouse
  • You enjoy setting goals & reaching them
  • Extra money each month sounds nice, and you have a personal goal or hope for your family you’d like to reach
  • You value authenticity and transparency and thoughtfulness

Start your business with ONE investment: the Digital Kit ($50) or Enrollment Kit ($98).

As a consultant, you have an inside track on Beautycounter news. You can then choose from a range of temporarily discounted Starter Sets (40-44% savings!). Starter sets are not required when enrolling as a consultant but they are highly valuable and helpful. You receive a 25% discount when you shop. And you can earn 25-35% commission from each sale.

The Digital Kit includes access to product training and education, business analysis and tracking, and digital marketing tools. You’ll also get your own personal website to promote your business and share with customers so they can shop with you directly.

Why I enjoy it…

A few months ago I took an adventurous step to become an advocate (which is really what consultants are) and it’s been a wonderful decision in a handful of areas. Working with Beautycounter has rewarded me with a few surprising and fun ways:

  • These beautiful, effective products benefit my skin and make taking care of my body a joy.
  • I love the flexibility of working at my own pace and giving however many hours a week to this little business I choose.
  • Educating others on how safer products can positively impact their health has become another way I want to love my people.
  • I am inspired on the regular by women who are part of the Beautycounter community. And I LOVE having yet another thing to talk about with friends new and old.
  • I admit to feeling a sense of joy by financially contributing in small ways to my other joys (this blog, coffee dates with friends, gifts, books, etc). (John says that if I can basically fund my Beautycounter purchases, he would call this venture a success. Haha!)
Let’s do it!

Not sure yet?

I know how you feel. It took me about a year, maybe more, to take the step. But if you thinking this might be something you’d like to do, please email me!

If you aren’t ready to become a consultant, here’s another way to join the movement:

If you’re looking to make the switch and save on cleaner beauty products, becoming a BAND OF BEAUTY MEMBER is a great start. By signing up, you get:

  • A FREE welcome gift when you spend $50+
  • FREE shipping on order over $100
  • 10% Product Credit
  • Exclusive Members Only offers

If we refuse to hold them in the hopes of living without doubt, despair, and pain, we also find ourselves living without faith, hope, and love.” Parker J. Palmer
