All posts by Melissa. January 11, 2016. Every family in our shared life group put together family mission statements as homework this past week to share with each other. This is something that Brad and I did a few years ago but we decided to start fresh. I thought it would be fun to share ours and to encourage other families and individuals to do the same. Making a mission statement is a fantastic way to consider the important values in our lives and refocus our time on what matters. January 7, 2016.

Let there be light. May 20, 2014. We live in a good neighborhood. In fairness, if you’re driving in from the suburbs, you might be terrified. It’s not your fault, the neighborhood is intentionally mischaracterized. But this group of people is an extreme minority. They represent literally a handful of people among thousands. They know something. They know that their power is based on their visibility. They know that their power is only valid for as long as they demonstrate their capacity to put th...Our d...

31 Days 2015 Series. To Be More Free. Ordinary life, extraordinary freedom. Newer posts →. Just this one thing}. April 1, 2016. What do I want in this life? That’s a question I ask myself often. Sometimes to actually figure it out, and sometimes to just to weigh everything against my purpose to see if I am on the right track. It never really worked. I am learning that to carry out the greatest commandment, to love God and to love others as I love myself, I have to. I’ve been thinking about what tha...

Making Much Of Him 365. Reina and Her Umbrella {An Unexpected Encounter with Jesus}. August 3, 2015. Driving home today, my friend and I notice the sun setting over the mountains. We are in (literally) the middle of nowhere Honduras on a road that could be mistaken for a path – at best. When the road forks, she chooses the wrong way purposefully in hopes of photographing the beautiful mountains. Nothing prepares me for what I see next. Smoke Trash. A dump. I get my phone out and give it to Ritzy so she c...

Making Much Of Him 365. Contents of a Backpack {Hannah in Honduras}. July 29, 2015. My Hannah is at the end of the hall getting a pedicure and manicure. It’s pampering – but it’s really practice for a gal learning in Mi Esperanza’s Beauty School. There’s a bilingual gal named Marcela, and they’re chatting as if they’ve known each other for years. Hannah’s smile is big, and I know she’s found her happy place. This is the girl – the woman – she’s becoming. I look on as she makes a friend; I love watching a...

March 18, 2015. As the sun filters pink through the trees outside of their bedroom window, I listen to my son pray and reflect on what he told me earlier. God makes the seed grow into a tree. It’s like the seed is trash, and God makes it into something new again. he said that evening while they played outside. God is like upcycling. Upcycling the process of taking something old and useless and giving it new purpose. Isn’t that what it’s all about? And the process that binds it all together is hope. There...
