Big Prayers Needed

Jeremiah 17:7Good morning sweet friends!  I hope this weekend has been amazing for you all!  I know that it has been really nice to have Nate home more than usual around here, and we finally got around to some projects that we’ve been meaning to get done for a while.  That plus lots of fun pool time and good food – we are blessed indeed!

 

I just wanted to put a couple of things out there for you guys if and when you’re praying over the next few days.  I know I have amazing and incredibly encouraging readers who care and love so well and so deeply, so here it is:

  1. Back in March I mentioned that our friend Andrew is facing some intensely challenging moments in his second battle with cancer, and I have to admit I’m terrified every day that we’ll hear sad news.  In all honesty I pray for a massive miracle that I know only the Lord can provide, but at the root of it all I want him and his amazing (and I do mean amazing) wife and daughter to be taken care of.  I want them to enjoy one another and rejoice in the love of God and the faith they all share.  I hope that you guys will join me in praying big time for Andrew.  Additionally he is an amazing author and has a few books available on his site that I would recommend to anyone!
  2. Big news:  we’ve put our house in Colorado on the market!  I’m having a really hard time getting over myself and my worry and just trusting that God will provide the right buyer(s) to take over that beloved house.  It’s silly when I think about it because we were in an even bigger bind last year when we were going to rent it out, and yet everything was taken care of infinitely better than I could ever have imagined.  I have no doubt that the same thing will happen now, but with financial deadlines looming I can get a little worried at times rather than really working to live out Jeremiah 17:7.

There you have it – just two things, but 2 very big things that I would be so blessed if you guys could help me cover in prayer.  Thank you for being so amazing and such lights in my life!

 

Love y’all,

 

Heather

    It hurts my heart that Andrew seems to be getting worse. I will keep him in my prayers. I know that God has a plan for you and your house will be safe hands. Godspeed Heather!

Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! 

As we move into goal setting for the new year, may I suggest starting with your physical health? Not to fit the bikini body mold that society normalizes, but to actually BE as healthy as possible. When everything hit the fan for me this year I dug into two things that have been integral to creating positive growth and a healthier mindset: 

1️⃣ my relationship with God
2️⃣ my physical health

What that’s looked like for me on the health front: holding fast to my commitment to whole food nutrition, grace for the days when I choose otherwise, pushing myself to lift heavier in workouts, and taking up running again. 

What’s happened as a result? When I push myself physically, when I choose to practice discipline to do what I know is best for my body, it makes it infinitely easier to choose that same healthy discipline in every other area of life. You want to dominate your goals? Start with your health!
Remember when I blogged about food? 😂 Gosh the Remember when I blogged about  food? 😂 Gosh the past few months have been nuts. I’m still over here figuring out how to eat well without sacrificing my life in the kitchen, and this is a bowl I couldn’t NOT share with y’all. The best thing is that everything is almost always on hand in my fridge, it’s packed with nutrition, and tastes AMAZING!

In the bowl:
-rice mixed with Trader Joe’s Zhoug sauce
-broiled shredded Brussels sprouts
-chickpeas
-baby  arugula
-grilled chicken breast
-Romesco sauce (from Trader  Joe’s but I usually make my own)
-a little  tzaziki sauce

This meal has been on repeat all week, only changing the rice for riced cauliflower and omitting the chickpeas on low carb days. YUM! I find that if I have a variety of roasted veggies, grilled chicken, and a few different sauces on hand I can almost always come up with a great bowl for almost any meal!
It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday y’all! Almost 4 years ago I took a leap of faith and said yes to this job in an effort to create another stream of revenue. I had NO CLUE that it would change my life for the better in almost every way, that it would reignite my passion for health and community, that it would provide in so many beautiful ways. But it has, and I am so thankful to all of you who have trusted me and supported me along the way. 

When you shop with a small business you are literally a hero in their eyes, validating and supporting and protecting them. You guys are my heroes, and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

Affirmations for YOU today. Even when you don’t Affirmations for YOU today. Even when you don’t feel it, these are truths that I’m holding for you. ❤️
3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day:

1️⃣ SMILE! Even if you don’t feel like it, smiling (even forcing it to the point of feeling weird) has actually been scientifically proven to improve mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system. I actually recommend doing it awkwardly around other people because it’ll make them smile too 😉

2️⃣ GRATITUDE! Right now, before you talk yourself out of it, say or write 3 things you’re thankful for. Big, small, or in between. In this moment I’m going to say sticky notes, my Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and the Hamilton soundtrack. BOOM!

3️⃣MOVE! Get up off your tush, right now, and move your body. Walk around your house, do some jumping jacks, lock yourself in the bathroom and do a little dance, whatever. This isn’t about looking cool, it’s about giving yourself a better day. 

Things are hard, ambiguity and uncertainty isn’t fun, but we can control ONE THING: ourselves. Praying that you choose to gift yourself a little bit of happiness today! 

Now, tell me below, what’s one thing you’re thankful for RIGHT NOW?
