😭😭 I did not know my life was about to break, but the Lord did.

I did not know my heart was about to need evidence that God had already been there first, but I have learned that the Lord is often preparing us in quiet ways before we even understand why we will need His comfort.

So many of us walk through things we never saw coming: a relationship changes, a friendship shifts, a job ends, a diagnosis comes, a child struggles, or a version of life we felt sure about suddenly looks different than we thought it would.
And when that happens, it is so easy for the hurt to become the loudest voice in the room.

But I am learning to look back, not because I want to live in the past, but because I want to notice the tender ways Jesus Christ may have been preparing my heart before I even knew I would need Him.

It may have been a prompting, a scripture, a conversation, a quiet feeling, a person He placed nearby, or a truth that came before the trial did.

And if you are walking through something painful and you did not feel warned before it came, please hear this with all the tenderness I can say it: that does not mean Heaven missed you.

A warning is one way God comforts His children, but it is not the only way He stays.

Jesus Christ can be near before the breaking, and He can be just as near in the middle of it.

So today, maybe the invitation is to look for Him in the story you are still trying to understand.

Look for the small evidence that He has been aware of you, preparing you, strengthening you, carrying you, or sending someone to love you when you needed it most.

Even when life breaks in a way we cannot explain, Jesus Christ is still the Savior who sees, knows, comforts, and stays.

We don’t like this lightly ☺️

You asked for this necklace so many times and I know why.

You were asking for a reminder you could wear close when you are trying to keep Jesus Christ at the center of a life that keeps moving, needing, stretching, and asking so much from you.

Keep Him Close means so much to us because it means so much to you.

Created to rest close to your heart as a quiet reminder of the Savior in the ordinary places.

In the car where you whisper the prayer no one hears, in the kitchen where you keep serving people you love, in the school pickup line where your thoughts finally catch up with you, and in the tender moments when your heart reaches for heaven.

Crafted from durable stainless steel with a 14k gold PVD coating, this necklace is waterproof, tarnish-resistant, and made to last through everyday wear, because a reminder this meaningful should be able to stay close in the life you are actually living.

This is a limited release, and once this batch sells out, it will be gone.

🔴 Covenants can sound like a big Sunday word until you need strength on a Tuesday afternoon.

Summer has a way of showing us exactly where we need Jesus Christ.

The noise, the needs, the snack requests, the messes, the emotions, and the constant “Mom” can bring us right to that tiny space before we respond, where our hearts are reaching for patience, softness, and more of the Savior’s strength.

This week in Come, Follow Me, we study Samson in Judges 13–16, and I keep thinking about how his strength was connected to something sacred.
And so is ours.

We often think about covenants as the promises we made at baptism or in the temple, but this week I kept wondering how often those covenants are meant to help us in the exact moments we are living right now.

In the moment before we react, in the conversation that needs more love, in the worry we are ready to place in the Lord’s hands, in the private choice heaven sees, and in the part of us that wants to become more like Jesus Christ.

Your covenants are doing holy work in your soul, even in quiet moments heaven sees.

Your baptism reminds you whose you are. The Holy Ghost can bring comfort, direction, correction, and peace. The sacrament gives you a holy return to Jesus Christ every week. Temple covenants bring protection, holiness, and eternal vision. Consecration helps you place your worries, gifts, time, plans, and heart in the Lord’s hands.

This is what I hope you remember…
Covenants are promises we make with God, and they are also places where God keeps strengthening us.

This week’s free printable called:
Which Covenant Holds the Power You Need?

Comment POWER if you want the printable.

It helps you take one real moment from your life and connect it to the covenant that can help you receive more of the Savior’s power there.

💛💛 Scared you won’t understand the temple?

If you are preparing to receive your endowment for the first time and you feel nervous about going through the temple, please know this: you are not the only one.

So many faithful young adults walk toward the temple with love for God in their hearts and quiet questions they do not always know how to say out loud.

“What if I don’t understand it?”
“What if I feel overwhelmed?”
“What if everyone else seems to know what they’re doing?”

Receiving your endowment is a sacred step, and sacred things can feel big before they feel familiar. The temple is a house of learning, a house of covenants, and a house where the Lord teaches His children through the Holy Ghost, through symbols, through promises, and through returning again and again.

You do not have to understand everything the first time to have a meaningful temple experience. Go looking for Jesus Christ. Look for His mercy, His Atonement, His promises, and His power to bring you home.

The Savior knows your nervous heart, and He knows how to steady it.

If you have been through the temple, leave one loving piece of advice in the comments for someone preparing to receive their endowment for the first time. Your words could help someone walk into the house of the Lord with more peace.

For the path you didn’t choose ❤️❤️❤️

Have you ever tried to trust the Lord while quietly wishing the way looked different?

That feeling has been on my heart this week, because so many of us are walking through something we would not have chosen exactly this way. We believe in God, we love Him, and we want to trust Him, but there are moments when our hearts still whisper, “I did not think it would look like this.”

I think about this every time I remember a young girl who came to my husband with leg pain. There was no clear injury, and it could have been easy to wait or assume it was something small, but he felt a clear impression to order an MRI.

That MRI showed bone cancer.

Because he trusted that prompting, they were able to act quickly before it spread, and today she is in full remission.

That experience has become one of my reminders that the Lord is faithful, and that trusting Him can open the way for miracles we never could have created on our own.

That is why I love this reminder from Judges 6:12: “The Lord is with thee.”

Before the miracle, before the full understanding, before the outcome made sense, that truth came first.

The Lord was with him.
And He is with you too.

Trusting the Lord does not always mean the way suddenly becomes clear. Sometimes it means remembering where He has already guided, protected, strengthened, and carried you, and letting that memory give your heart courage to trust Him here too.

So today, maybe the invitation is to remember:
* Remember the prayer He answered.
* Remember the peace He sent.
* Remember the strength that came when you thought you had none left.
* Remember the moment He helped you see that He had been with you all along.
The Lord can bring something holy out of the path your heart never would have chosen.

He can work miracles in ways you did not expect, and even here, even now, even on this road, Jesus Christ is with you.

🛑 The prayer you are afraid to pray…

The hardest prayers are often the ones where we already know what we need to say.

The ones where we stop explaining, stop avoiding, and stop trying to make peace with something our spirit still knows needs the Savior.

I have been thinking about how tender the Lord is with an honest heart. He does not wait for us to come perfectly, with the right words and the right timing and a heart that has already figured itself out. He meets us when we finally turn toward Him and say, “I need You here too.”

That is the miracle of repentance.

The Lord’s love has been there the whole time, steady and full of mercy, and repentance is the sacred moment when we finally let that love reach the place we have been keeping closed.

Because of Jesus Christ, that place can become clean. It can become quiet. It can become holy in a way only He could make it.

Maybe there is something your heart has been circling for a long time. It feels small to everyone else, but heavy to you. And you have wondered if the Lord is tired of hearing about it.

He is not.

The Savior is gentle with the soul that comes honestly. His redeeming love is real. His mercy is already reaching. And the prayer you are afraid to pray may become the very place where peace begins.

🔵 What if the miracle already happened and you missed it?

What if the thing you called “just getting through” was actually one of the clearest places the Lord was carrying you?

Maybe there is a part of your life you have never known what to call, because at the time you were too tired, too overwhelmed, or too focused on surviving the next step to recognize that something sacred was happening.

The children of Israel stood at the Jordan River waiting to enter the promised land, and the water did not part while they were standing far away from it.

The priests had to step into the river while it was still full, still moving, and still looking like the way forward was blocked, and after the Lord brought them through, He asked them to gather stones from the riverbed so they would have something to help them remember.

The Lord knew life would keep moving, the water would return, the moment would pass, and they would need a way to look back and say, “The Lord brought us through.”

I wonder how many times He has done that for us, and we moved on because we did not have the words, the strength, or the stillness to call it a miracle.

Maybe you called it survival, even though heaven may have called it mercy, or maybe you called it getting through, even though Jesus Christ may have been carrying you in ways you could not see yet.

Maybe the strength that showed up, the peace that stayed, the door that opened, the timing you could not have planned, or the breath you found for one more day was evidence that He was already in the river with you.

Today’s post is about remembering the wonders we may have forgotten, and I made a Stones of Remembrance printable to help you write down the places where the Lord has helped you cross what once felt impossible.

Comment WONDER on today’s post and I’ll send it to you.

I hope it helps you remember that the God who carried you then is still working wonders now.

The most sacred moments don’t happen in church pews… ⭐️

As disciples of Jesus Christ and parents striving to raise our children in light and truth, we must be intentional about what fills our homes.

Our children spend 35 hours a week in school and only 2 hours at church. 😳

This reality is that the most consistent place for gospel teaching and testimony is not the chapel…it’s the home.

If we want our children to truly know the Savior, feel the influence of the Holy Ghost, and gain a testimony, we must make our homes places where the Spirit is invited and felt.

This doesn’t require perfection. It requires consistency and love.

This summer, choose to focus on what matters most: helping our families come unto Christ.

This has been a favorite every year. The Summer With Jesus Spiritual Devotional. Each week brings a new theme and a small invitation to help you feel the Spirit together.

Comment ‘SUMMER’ and I will send you the link.

I saw God’s hand in a place I never wanted to look🔵

This week has been tender in a way I still do not know how to put into words, because on Thursday, my dear friend Marla was in a horrible car accident with her four children.

Marla, her 13-year-old son, and her 10-year-old daughter were flown to the hospital in critical condition, and after her sweet 13-year-old boy was placed on life support, Friday became the sacred and heartbreaking day they had to say goodbye.

It has been the kind of sorrow that makes everything else feel small, and yet, in the middle of something no family should ever have to experience, we have witnessed the wonders of God.

Marla took most of the impact, and she is expected to make a full recovery, while her 3-year-old’s car seat was destroyed and he walked away from the accident.

A friend was two cars behind them, and because she is a nurse practitioner, she was able to begin helping them right away, which feels like one of those tender details that heaven placed there before anyone knew how badly she would be needed.

When Marla could not walk or leave her hospital bed, two hospitals worked together to make it possible for her to be taken to her son, so she could say goodbye to her baby.

I keep thinking about Joshua 3:5: “Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.”

Sometimes the wonders of God do not take away the sorrow, but they come right into the middle of it as protection we cannot explain, help that arrives at the exact moment it is needed, healing that begins, doors that open, people who gather, and love that carries a family when their own strength could never be enough.

I have never seen people rally around a family like this, and every prayer, act of service, message, meal, donation, tear, and expression of love has become a witness to me that Jesus Christ is still in the middle of His children.

God is not done showing us wonders, and even where hearts are broken and grief is deep, His mercy is real and His goodness is still reaching for us.
