a place for your soul to breathe
May your weekend be filled with endless opportunities to create and love and move on purpose. May you hope anyway, rest anyway, and laugh about it, too. If you are fighting a battle that you don’t think you can win, may the wounds heal quickly and your friends stand strong. If you are celebrating a victory you never thought would come, may you be thankful, humble, and filled up with peace. Enjoy your weekend, friends.
There isn’t one great thing you were made to do. There's one great God you were made to glorify. When you embrace the unique shape of your soul and live as the person you most fully are, art comes out. (Coming Nov. 2013)
My first book encourages tired women to let go of the try-hard life. Instead of trying to grab on to grace, what would it mean to let grace grab on to you?
Written especially for teen girls encouraging them to give up on perfect and instead trust the One who is.
Thanks, Emily – right back at’cha!

I’ve been one of those silent followers for awhile, but I haven’t kept up this summer because I’ve been in Russia. I’m in St. Petersburg this weekend and finally had time to catch up, and I’m so glad I looked at this post! It fits every emotion I had this past weekend as I left the camp I’d been teaching at for 6 weeks. Though I’m sad to leave these beautiful people, I’m elated that I get to return to my family soon. It also fulfills a dream I’ve had for several years, and it’s a little surreal it’s actually over. God has been good through the summer, and I’m excited to see what He will continue to do in the relationships I started here in Russia.
