Yesterday was the first time I didn’t pressure m Yesterday was the first time I didn’t pressure myself to host or show up everywhere. Instead, I chose what I actually had the capacity for: a slow, quiet Thanksgiving with the family I created. 

I’ll admit, I was scared to do it. I just didn’t want to disappoint anyone. But the peace that came with that choice? Unmatched 🙌🏽🤍

It made me wonder how many times have I robbed myself of peace trying to keep “the peace”?

“You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!” — Isaiah‬ ‭26‬:‭3‬

Here’s to choosing capacity over expectations and peace over pressure — even during the holidays.

I’ve got so much to be grateful for this year. I I’ve got so much to be grateful for this year. I’ve been stretched in ways I didn’t expect, but those moments taught me more about God’s peace, my capacity, and what truly matters.

So today, I’m grateful — not just for my family, the food, or the tradition…but for the growth, the grace, and the God who carried me through every season.

Happy Thanksgiving yall! 🧡🙏🏽 

“I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done. I will be filled with joy because of you. I will sing praises to your name, O Most High.”

I’m a traditional girlie through and through, so I’m a traditional girlie through and through, so I never imagined saying “no” to hosting on my favorite holiday. But I’m slowly learning to choose what God is actually calling me to — not what other people’s expectations or guilt push me toward.

We weren’t designed to run ourselves into exhaustion. And honestly?

That’s what I’m looking forward to the most tomorrow…ending the night with peace, not burnout 😮‍💨🙌🏽🦃

I felt led to share this because the reality is, f I felt led to share this because the reality is, for a lot of people, the holidays are a tough time. If you’ve been feeling guilty for wanting to sit Thanksgiving out, you don’t need a dramatic excuse. You need a clean, respectful boundary that protects your peace without creating unnecessary conflict.

They may be disappointed, but disappointment is not disrespect. Time and time again, Jesus modeled for us that you can love your people and still have boundaries. 

You don’t need to justify.
You do not need to over-explain.
You do not need to lie. 
You do not need to defend.

So let your “yes” be yes, and your “no” be no. (Matthew 5:37)

The holiday season brings joy, but it also brings The holiday season brings joy, but it also brings noise, pressure, and expectations.

Before you say yes to all the things this season brings, ask yourself: 

• Am I saying yes because I don’t want to disappoint someone?
• Do I actually have the time, energy, or finances for this?

God never designed us to carry everyone else’s expectations. You can love your family AND honor your capacity this season. Jesus did. (John 7:6)

I love how God used something as simple as a puzzl I love how God used something as simple as a puzzle to bring His word to life:

“And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love Him...” - Romans 8:28

And to show me what trusting Him with all the pieces of my life actually looks like:

“I know the plans I have in mind for you, declares the LORD; they are plans for peace, not disaster, to give you a future filled with hope.” - Jeremiah 29:11

I’m learning that His timing is better. His plans are better. His will is better. And He’s not done assembling me yet 🙌🏽❤️🙏🏽

6 Creative Ways To Use Glass Storage Jars Around The House


Glass storage jars seem to be all that’s trending these days on Tiktok and Instagram, and for good reason! 

There are so many ways you can use them to get organized around the house and for home decor. And they’re not even as pricey as you may think which is a plus. 

You can find the most popular one-gallon jars for $10 each at Target. At Walmart, they are just under $9 for the same size. But I’d steer clear of buying them on Amazon because you’ll only end up paying a lot more.  

Here’s what to do with empty glass jars:

You can put your laundry pods in there, soap powder, and scent booster beads. I’ve also seen people keep clothespins in their glass jars too.

The best part about using glass jars is that they’re air-tight. This means ANYthing you want to store will stay nice and fresh! 

So if you want to remove all of your bar soaps from their original packaging and beautifully store them in a giant glass jar, you can!

The possibilities are endless here! From elbow noodles to oatmeal, you can put whatever you want inside. 

Glass Jars for Countertops

This is my favorite way to use glass storage jars because it makes countertop storage pretty AND practical! If you bake often, you can use your glass jars to store flour and sugar. 

But if you want your kitchen to look like the Kardashians, then you should fill your jars with stacked Oreo or chocolate chip cookies.

With this idea, you’ll get a two-for-one deal. Because glass jars already provide extra storage, it makes great home decor too!

And speaking of decor, this idea is super creative and festive. It’s an elevated approach to your typical snow globe with DIY gingerbread houses you’ll actually want to display — not eat! 

pin for later!

In my house, I plan to keep it super simple and just use glass jars on my countertops for flour and sugar, and also in my laundry room for laundry products.

How will you use your glass jars?!
