Loved In Spite of Self

A mama who is loved by Jesus, her hubby, and her kids in spite of herself. My hope is that everything I share encourages, points you to Jesus, and illuminates the big love he has for you not because of who you are or what you have done but because of who He is and what He has done.

What Or Who Do We Hire To Protect Us?

June 6, 2018June 6, 2018 / lovedinspiteofself / Leave a comment

  Psalm 23:4 is so comforting. It let's us know who is protecting us. It brings comfort not just on our death bed or the death bed of a loved one but through out life.  The things we fear, like death, have no power over us.  Things like death are all around us in this … Continue reading What Or Who Do We Hire To Protect Us?

The Search for Perfection

May 30, 2018 / lovedinspiteofself / Leave a comment

I just want to be.... I just want to be a good housekeeper. I just want to be good at redirecting the kids. I just want to be patient. I just want to look like a super model. When I was rattling all of these I just want's to my husband the other night I … Continue reading The Search for Perfection

Restoration

May 29, 2018May 29, 2018 / lovedinspiteofself / Leave a comment

Just like the rest of this Psalm the sentence He Restores My Soul can't be removed from it's place.  It needs to be looked at right where God intended it to be. Two weekends ago I as able to attend a conference put on by Christ Hold Fast.  If you have not looked at their resources … Continue reading Restoration

Dew and Provision

May 16, 2018May 16, 2018 / lovedinspiteofself / Leave a comment

No I don't mean a Mountain Dew to start off the morning but this time of year if someone showed up on my front step with one I would probably drink it.  (I promise one day spring will be over and I will stop talking about how tired I am...haha.) I learned something about sheep … Continue reading Dew and Provision

Sunday

May 13, 2018February 15, 2020 / lovedinspiteofself / 2 Comments

I attempted to be mentally prepared for the worst and I hoped for the best.  It may sound dramatic and perhaps it is but Sunday mornings can be nuts.  If i was going to be physically prepared to bring an 2, 4, 6, 8 year old to church this morning I would have had to … Continue reading Sunday

To Do List’s and Rest

May 11, 2018February 15, 2020 / lovedinspiteofself / Leave a comment

Psalm 23 is not the only place in scripture where God talks about providing the people he loves with rest. In the Song of Solomon we are also shown that he wants to give us rest.  The woman is speaking in these verses about her life working for brothers who hate her and also about … Continue reading To Do List’s and Rest

Wanting

May 8, 2018May 14, 2018 / lovedinspiteofself / 1 Comment

I am tempted to separate these two phrases. 'The Lord is my shepherd' and 'I shall not want'. Last week I wrote about The Lord being my shepherd. This week the plan was to write about 'I shall not want' however, I am finding that impossible. I can talk about the Lord being my shepherd … Continue reading Wanting

Buttered bread

May 4, 2018April 8, 2019 / lovedinspiteofself / Leave a comment

"I WILL NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT WHERE MY BREAD GETS BUTTERED..." "I WILL NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT WHERE MY BREAD GETS BUTTERED..." "I WILL NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT WHERE MY BREAD GETS BUTTERED..." This is the phrase I repeat to myself from April till October. Spring brings the reminder on strong that my husband is not my everything. … Continue reading Buttered bread

The Shepherd

May 1, 2018February 15, 2020 / lovedinspiteofself / 1 Comment

It is the beginning to a familiar passage from the bible.  The Lord is my shepherd.  What does that mean for us?  What does it mean that the Lord is our Shepherd?  If we have a shepherd does that mean we are the sheep?  Psalm 23 speaks about things that our Shepherd does for us.  … Continue reading The Shepherd
