Well friends, Happy Friday!
Today we’ll be having coffee as I head to UT for the weekend.
Ahhhh! I can’t wait to get away.
Life is good.
My heart, I’m sure will be filled by weekends end.
It might be full of anxiety as Kyle’s trying to get me to go skydiving with him, but never-the-less, it will be full.
Have you ever been skydiving? I’ve been bungy jumping. Clearly not the same thing.
I can’t wait to hear how your week is going.
Remember you are loved + you are cherished by our everlasting Father.
And there is nothing greater than that.
If you’re joining me for coffee, please

So sorry you had rough week. I hope talking about it tonight helped get some of it off your chest. Thanks for being great company tonight friend…happy jumping 😉
Ko says
Betrayal of friends can be such a heartbreaking, heart wrenching thing 🙁 You have such a big heart for Him and the people around you, sadly because of how essential you are to the Kingdom the enemy is furious! Stay close to Him and you’ve got it made girly! Walk on 🙂
PS. I’m loving that bell/bedtime idea! Maybe a bedtime routine post????
Happy Friday! Have a wonderful weekend 🙂
Katie Shannon says
I’m so sorry you had a rough week – I just love your heart and am just so excited I found your blog. And your bells – ummm LOVE!! 😉 Oh gosh, sky diving – that is something I definitely do not want to try but love finding out when others take the jump.

I am so sorry your week has been a rough one. I love your outlook though, I hope your weekend and the weeks to come are much easier than this past week. xoxo
Morgan @ Momma to Binks&Bubble says
listening to you makes my heart smile! you have such a great outlook & focus on the important things in life. i hope the rough stuff gets sorted out.
& those bells are such a good idea! .. tell us more. haha
Kate says
I can completely relate. Whenever you are trying to live in God’s will, the enemy will try and destroy. Whenever my husband and I started marital classes in our church, that’s the first thing they told us. Brace ourselves because the enemy hates when we do good. Hang in there girl!
Lauren says
So sad to hear you had a rough week. It is heartbreaking when people you built a relationship with betray you. I’ve been dealing with something similar. I’m not sure of your situation, but I’ve been hearing negative words toward sharing my love for Him & it really hurts not only for me, but I hurt for them. :/ Hope you feel better about things soon. 🙂 xoxo
Join me for coffee, won’t you?

This is why God is good. He brought you to my life and gives you the words I always need to hear. I am so happy to know you and see all the wonderful things He is doing in your life. I’ve been reading one of Joel Osteen’s books and his writing speaks to me in volumes. What I read last night (about people in our lives for seasons because that’s how God wants it) and what you just talked about plus what He’s been telling my heart….I can’t tell you what a blessing you are.
Love you.
And have an awesome time with Kyle in Utah. I’ll be praying for you (especially during the sky-diving!)
Colletta says
Be Still and Know That I Am God is one of my all time favorites. I have it stenciled on a plaque that hangs on my wall. Sometimes it is SO hard to just be still.
I totally need a bell system for bedtime. Right now, I watch the clock and yell out “Time for bedtime routine”, “Five minutes till lights out”. It would even work in the morning for the “15 minutes warning” etc. What system do you use ?
Thanks so much for vlogging even though you didn’t feel like it!

Thanks for being open with us. I really related to your situation- regardless of details. It is tough. Enjoy your weekend away- can’t wait to hear about your skydiving!
Nicole says
I feel like the worst friend right now. I’m not sure if once during my craziness that I even asked you how your week is going. Please forgive me friend! I hope that whatever you have going on gets better! I love that verse too! Hope you have fun in Utah and good luck with the sky diving- I’ve become less of a risk taker with age so I’m not sure I could sky dive!! LOVE YOU LOTS!!!!!!!
Rags to Stiches says
Totally not true! I love our friendship. Hope your craziness ends soon! love you tons!! xoxo
Mackenzie says

Penelope Lane says
I hope you have the best trip with your sweet hubby! I too am sorry that your heart is heavy. That is a tough feeling and I am so sad that you are having to deal with that hurt. I too loooove the chimes! What a great idea!!
XO friend!
Rags to Stiches says
Thank you friend. It was an amazing trip! Hope you are doing well….xoxo
Rebecca Smith says
So, maybe you’ve written about this at some point, but I NEED to know all the details about your bells and routine with kids. LOVE IT.
Lindsay @ Pursuit of Pink says
This coffee date vlog was amazing. I recently found your blog and I am loving it. Hearing you talk about the joy that you find in our Heavenly Father is so refreshing. One of the reasons I started my blog two months ago was to add some positivity to the very negative internet world and to share some snippets of my Christian walk. Your vlog is very inspiring. Can’t wait to read and hear more from you!
Rags to Stiches says
Thank you so much Lindsay. I think always working to find our peace in our Heavenly Father is the only way to make it though our day. I hope you’ll stop by again soon.
Natalie @ NS Pottery says
Love you, friend! Hope this week goes better.
Rags to Stiches says
Love you back! Thank you friend. Missing you!

Rags to Stiches says
Thank you so much sweet friend! I’m often confused on what day it is myself, so don’t feel bad. Have an amazing week! xoxo
