brooke | first the kingdom

https://timandbrookecollier.wordpress.com/author/timbrookecollier

May 25, 2016. Earlier this week we heard for the first time the sweet sound of a strong, steady and easily-located heartbeat. The heartbeat of baby #4. That it’s going to be. Work having 4 kids so close together. But I also know this: that Tim and I both had a strong sense very shortly after Walter was born that there was one more person meant to be added to our family. It wasn’t even so much about “one more baby”, cute and squishy as they are, as it was this spiritual. On capacity and grace. Each season...

This season now, and those early days with hazel feel so far away. i sometimes think that if i could go back and re-live them, it would feel easy compared to now. i would handle it like a pro, i would be so much more laid back. maybe that would be the case,. To cook and clean and run errands, which sometimes made me feel so young and inexperienced. December 16, 2014 at 5:42 pm. In memorium : kevin.

why i chose this : following Jesus | first the kingdom

https://timandbrookecollier.wordpress.com/2014/01/23/why-i-chose-this-following-jesus

24 hours in →. Why i chose this : following Jesus. January 23, 2014. But this is beside the point. I chose to follow Jesus as a teenager and in college because my mind was satisfied enough, stimulated even, and my heart yearned for his good news to be true. he was a moral compass, a comforting truth, an assurance that when the suffering of this life ended, there would be release in heaven. And then i vowed my life to him. the same day that i married tim, tim and i also said some vows. Why i chose this.

She was never here. In memorium : derek lee, gentle giant →. It’s august…. August 2, 2014. 8230; and so, we try to practice sabbath in one, giant, concentrated chunk. sabbath is rest. sabbath is letting go of striving and choosing to trust instead. sabbath is humility. it says, “this world doesn’t go ’round because of my effort but by the grace of an all-sufficient and generous Father. therefore, the world can afford to live without me for a minute.”. The Lord is my shepherd; I will want for nothing.
