Filing this away in the memory books… my best girl and I had a spontaneous, L O N G overdue, mommy daughter date yesterday morning. we got pedicures, we went to target, we got Mexican food, and played at a park. (Self-timer pics for the win!) We talked and had real, deep, genuine conversation. I asked her serious and not so serious questions and I saw a piece of my little girl’s heart I hadn’t seen before. She’s only seven, but I can already tell that she is wise beyond her years. She has such a love for others and for Jesus… And at the end of the day, if that’s all I’ll pass on to her is to love God and love others… Then I will have done my job. Really, really thankful to be her mom.

I haven’t been able to have as much one on one time with her in the last few months… But this was definitely the reminder I think we both needed to make sure that we prioritize this time together.

parents: maybe this is the reminder you need to have a little one on one date with your kiddo. Or if you love doing this with your kids regularly, I would love to know in the comments how you like to spend one on one time with your kids. #lillstill #mommydaughterdate

They should be here.

Not a day goes by that I don’t wonder if Elijah would have had red hair like Amos. Or if Malachi would have been a blonde like Lilly. Or if they’d have dark hair like mommy and daddy.

They should be here.

Every single time I see Lilly and Amos play with friend’s babies I think about what they’d be like with their baby brothers.

They should be here.

As I go through closets and try to clear out stuff we don’t need anymore, I ache when I get rid of the baby carriers I’d saved or the hand-me-downs I’d hoped to use again.

They should be here.

My boys existed. They mattered. I saw their hands and I held their tiny bodies. Their ashes are all that remains, but their memories are with me forever.

Until my dying day and I get to finally hold them in heaven, I will hold them in my heart.

Not gonna lie to you, the past few weeks I’ve felt... kind of defeated. I know you’ve probably noticed* I’ve been quiet on IG lately (*sarcasm 🤣 I know no one is actually paying attention to how often I post hahaha) - I’ve been taking a lot of time lately to be quick to listen and slow to speak... time to just... be and think and pray and laugh (and cry).

Between virtual school being *awful* (not going to even remotely try to sugarcoat it and be like “oh no it’s fineeeee! No. It’s the WERST.) and some frustrating, disappointing, disheartening stuff happening in our personal life - it’s just been... you know, a YEAR.

I’m a real killjoy, aren’t I?

I HAVE A POINT, I promise.

All this to say is: it’s okay to feel the feels. God feels the feels right along with you and, whether or not you realize it... He is walking through the feels with you.

And as much as it might not make sense or feel like it in the moment - it will be okay. I will see this through. You will see this (whatever you’re facing) through.

God is unchanging. He is steady. He is constant. He is so Trustworthy. His plans are WAY better than ours and even when it doesn’t make sense, I have a peace that this too, shall pass.

I can choose today to wither up and let the world overtake me... or I can choose to flourish in the life and plans God has for me.

It’s not gonna be easy. It’s gonna take work.

But it is gonna be good. So so good.

One of the benefits of virtual school? We can partake in a *much needed* change of scenery for a few days. Salt air and salt water is good for the soul. And school at the beach is better than school at home. AMIRIGHT? 🏖 #onislandtime #okinc #lillyandamos

Obligatory first day of school picture for Amos! (Last year of pre-K! 😭) He *is* going in person (even though Lilly is fully virtual) Long story short, we felt good about his small preschool and what they’re doing to keep kids and adults safe. We are giving it a shot and I’m 🤞🏼🙏🏼 hopeful it goes well because goodness knows this kid misses his friends. 😭 Swipe 👉🏼 for the previous year’s cuteness. #amosjames219

A story. This may seem a little woo woo, but I’m sharing it exactly how it happened.

In the spring of 2018, I was sitting in church one morning and, out of *literally* nowhere, I felt the still small voice of the Lord say, “I’m calling you into ministry. I’m calling you to preach.” I immediately thought, “Uhm what?” I looked around confused because there’s NO WAY that God was talking to me. Nope. That is so not my gifting. I immediately shoved the thought down and tried not to think about it after that.

Then, the next week at bible study fellowship (BSF), two women I was sitting next to (that prior to this particular day I did not know) stopped me after we closed in prayer and each, individually said, “Molly, while we were praying I just felt the Holy Spirit tell me to tell you that you are called to preach.” Then my friend Luaskya said the same thing. My head started to spin.

Then a few weeks later, I had lunch with a new friend, @sharonhmiller, and during our lunch, she looked me in the eye and said, “Molly, I believe you have a calling to preach. You have a gifting.” I had not said a WORD to her about what had happened over the previous couple of weeks and I felt absolutely wrecked by the Holy Spirit in that moment.

There were a lot of thoughts that ran through my mind: there’s no way that I am called to do this. I am so unqualified. I didn’t go to seminary. I’m a woman. People will judge me.

The enemy was wreaking havoc on me.

But this friend right here, she continued to encourage me and tell me to ignore those lies spinning around in my brain.

I mean, I speak all the time. I lead my church’s women’s ministry. I emcee events. Getting up in front of a crowd to speak isn’t a problem. But to say that I’m called to “preach”? That felt impossible.

Then, back in February of this year, Sharon asked me if I would preach at her church in March. I was nearly speechless and so humbled she’d even entrust something like that to me. Well, the weekend I was supposed to preach was the weekend everything was getting shut down for COVID, so we had to postpone it. (Continued in comments).
