Holley Gerth and I are hosting a book club, and we'd sure love to have you join us! ⁠🥳📚🔖⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When my favorite writing buddy (aka @holleygerth) and I were together a couple weeks ago, we started talking about how fun it would be to do a joint book club!⁠💃⁠⁠
⁠⁠
🍂While we all can experience change during any given season, it's rather synonymous with this current one when nature reflects so much change as well. That's why now is a good time to go through my devotional #WhenChangeFindsYou together.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
😬And since the holidays can bring just a *tiny skosh* of stress, it's an opportune time to also discuss Holley's stellar devotional, What Your Soul Needs for Stressful Times. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
THE DEETS:⁠⁠
⁠⁠
✔️Grab a copy of When Change Finds You and What Your Soul Needs for Stressful Times from your favorite bookseller.⁠⁠
✔️Starting next Thursday, October 28th, meet us at my insta-place for an Instagram Live at 1pm CST.⁠⁠
✔️First up to bat, we'll discuss a takeaway or two from days 1-7 of When Change Finds You.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Holley, myself, and YOU...we're gonna have fun, y'all! 🤸‍♀️

When we bought our house in the woods, this room w

When we bought our house in the woods, this room was considered the master bedroom. However, the best way to fit our queen-sized bed in the small room was to shoehorn the headboard into what is now the bookshelf alcove. That still would've been a tight fit, and we'd have had to crawl down towards the bottom of the bed to get out of it.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Could we have still slept in the bed? Yes. But would it have been the best solution? No ma'am. It would've felt like we were fighting with the limitations of the room rather than working with them.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
So we reworked this room into my office and turned another space into the master bedroom. And now, both rooms work much better for my family and me.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When I talk about change, my goal is to help you shift your perspective of it so that you're not fighting it but acknowledging, accepting, adapting, and abiding through it. I want to help you see it in a new way, a way that helps you think and feel differently about change on the inside so you can live and love differently on the outside. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
God *is* working through this change and the limitations it brings.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
At 10:45am, I'll be chattin' about change AND making a special announcement on IG Live! I'll be sitting right here, and I hope to see you there.⁠⁠

Have you ever watched a gardener really go after a rose bush? I have, and it often looks like the gardener takes off as much as she leaves.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Rose remnants lay here, there, and everywhere.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But pruning the roses is the key to more abundant growth. And the same can be said for us too.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The change that prunes today can lead to growth tomorrow--can lead to abundance tomorrow. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
"Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit." ~John 15:2⁠⁠
