Ending 2025 with a grateful heart. Truth is, God w Ending 2025 with a grateful heart. Truth is, God was faithful this year when I didn’t have the words, the strength, or the plan 😭😮‍💨🙌🏽

Right where I was 😭😭 I spent most of my life Right where I was 😭😭 I spent most of my life believing I had to find God.

Seek His face.
Seek first the Kingdom.
Ask, seek, knock.

And when I wasn’t doing any of that, I felt distant, like I was failing at being a His child.

What I’m realizing now is that God was present, patient, and near the whole time. 🥹 Just waiting for me to turn toward Him. 

“Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 

So maybe being a child of God isn’t just about finding Him. Maybe it’s also letting yourself be found.

This season feels less like striving and more like surrender. Not because I went back to church or heard the perfect sermon, but because God met me right where I was. In the middle of my pain, my overwhelm, my busy life. 

And He can do the same for you!

I’m entering 2026 with surrendered hands. This I’m entering 2026 with surrendered hands. 

This past year, God showed me that He doesn’t need my strategy. He’s been faithful in ways I didn’t even know to ask for.

So no big New Year’s resolution.
I’m on whatever God’s on 🙏🏽

“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,” — Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭20‬ ‭

The truth is, some days, the only reason I keep going is because I know God isn’t finished yet. 🙏🏽

They may not grow up to remember every single gift They may not grow up to remember every single gift under the tree, but I’m hoping they’ll always remember this 😋 It’s kind of become a little tradition around here. This year was Savannah’s first 🥰🥞🦌

On this Christmas Eve, I’ve been thinking about On this Christmas Eve, I’ve been thinking about the birth and life of Jesus.

He came with a clear purpose, and that purpose required boundaries.

Not to protect His comfort, but to protect His calling.

He withdrew.
He disappointed people.
He said “no” (even to good ideas), so He could say yes to what the Father asked of Him.

I’m learning that boundaries aren’t about pushing people away. They’re about pushing us closer to what God is doing in and through us.

Maybe our blessings really are attached to our boundaries. 

Happy CHRISTmas Eve!

I spent a lot of years letting other people decide I spent a lot of years letting other people decide who I was allowed to be.

The irony? My first name, Danielle—derived from Daniel—literally means God is my judge. And yet, somehow, I made people my jury.

So here I am, on this journey, learning to trust God more than people’s approval.

I may not know what God has for me, but I know where He has me.

First, I am His child.
Second, I am my husband’s wife.
Third, I am my children’s mother.

If stewarding these things well is the only thing I ever achieve, that is enough.‭

“Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the LORD means safety.” — Proverbs‬ ‭29‬:‭25‬ ‭
