whispers of the garden: April 2010
http://whispersofthegarden.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 22, 2010. On nights much like tonight, the clock ticks to an hour later than I should be up. and I find my mind just wandering and dreaming away about heaven. Long after the voices are silenced for the day and the world is stilled, my heart has moments every now and then where it feels the freedom and the security to just dream wildly and recklessly. And so. Heaven. I know that may seem silly. We've never been there. what's to think about? What's to even talk about? I just want heaven.

I never knew my life could be so busy. anyways, on to the glorious Montana.

It was an absolute treasure of a surprise. It blew me away. But after visiting - I could move to Montana! When w...

Wednesday, January 12, 2011. Roadtrip 2010: Some Things I Learned Driving Across the Country. Nun's play ball. and i think about it all the stinkin time. I'm not very good at making up songs. but it's ok, Caroline and Casey are. Next time you think a bear is outside your tent, you're probably wrong. Don't talk on your cell phone and pump gas. It's true. i can write 15 paragraphs about my love for a tree while some famous building does absolutely nothing for me. i'm ok with this. Denver feels like home.

whispers of the garden: March 2010
http://whispersofthegarden.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 29, 2010. Holy Week - Monday. The last week or so has made me really thankful for the simple things in life. I'm appreciative that all things point to our King - even in a freakin-mad chaotic world, there is comfort in all things being made new through even the smallest of things. Music that makes you listen a little closer and in doing so brings you closer to the heart of God. The sweet tears of friends. I treasure them. Monday, March 22, 2010. 40 Days, and then some. God, I just want to b...

Tuesday, November 16, 2010. Roadtrip 2010: Part 13 - Glacier National Park. Well it would definitely appear that I have disappeared into a black hole. Never fear though! Life has been pretty insane - mostly in good, rich, beautiful, fun ways. But busier than I ever imagined it could be! Hopefully that will slow soon. I need to finish these road trip posts, since it happened 3 months ago, but also because I have many other things I'd like to write about. So back to the regularly scheduled program! The nex...

whispers of the garden: July 2010
http://whispersofthegarden.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 28, 2010. A place of joy. There is a joy that comes alive in me in this place that I never experience anywhere else. Despite the fact that everytime I come my experience is drastically different in every way, and usually I am always tired while I'm here - joy. Despite that it is a place of incredible pain, of chaos, of confusion, of loss of hope - joy. Deep joy. I used to fear dancing like it was a snake ready to bite. Deep joy. I loved it. I love it here. I hope and pray this joy isn't a...

whispers of the garden: February 2010
http://whispersofthegarden.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 26, 2010. I spent about three days this week in bed due to some flu-like sickness. Blah, glad that is over and that I can actually leave the house and interact with people! But during that time I composed some short letters in my head that I thought I would share. With all my hatred,. Dear ingles peanut butter,. I promise to only continue to eat you by the spoon full very often. Dear church job,. Turns out when I'm sick, ministry doesn't stop. Hmm. It's not that I mind 6,000 ques...Rest ...
