God has given me a passion for motherhood and homemaking. From that passion, a ministry has birthed- No Higher Calling. There is no higher calling on my life than to be wife to Simeon and mama to my littles. Join with me on my motherhood journey as I seek to encourage moms and point them to Christ.

I must tell Jesus all of my trials; I cannot bear these burdens alone;
In my distress He kindly will help me; He ever loves and cares for His own.
God choses different paths for different people. No matter the trial, He promises to give the grace required to live out the life He has perfectly chosen for each of us. When life brings challenges or sorrows, we must tell Jesus! He will sustain us. We do not need to bear our burdens alone. He is with us!

The Pursuit of Perfection
Thursday Nov 06, 2025
Thursday Nov 06, 2025
I struggle with the pursuit of perfection. This has been an area of my life where God has been growing me and changing me. I can easily put expectations and standards on myself that God does not have on me. That brings bondage and oppression when God desires for us to live in freedom.
Join me as we chat through these topics of striving, motivation, identity, and keeping our goal focused on the glory of God alone.
