From the Pages of my Journal: Let’s Talk about Favor

January 28, 2021 / kristyjmikel / Leave a comment

My journal is my "safe space". It's not a diary where I feel the need to recount everything that's happened throughout each day. For me, my journal is that sacred space where I process, pour out my heart, and pray. It's a combination of all of those things and a place I revisit often, flipping … Continue reading From the Pages of my Journal: Let’s Talk about Favor

“I’m not afraid anymore.”

December 2, 2020 / kristyjmikel / 2 Comments

Today was one of those days where I questioned more than once if my head was even attached to my body! These days, weeks, months even, have been challenging and my brain has felt the tug and pull of information overload, spinning lots of plates in the air, and unexpected after unexpected. It's all just … Continue reading “I’m not afraid anymore.”

Follow the Presence of the Lord

November 9, 2020 / kristyjmikel / 1 Comment

One morning as I was sitting with Jesus, He brought to mind a passage in Joshua 3. I love the book of Joshua and find myself in it often. After Moses died, Joshua found himself taking on an incredible mantle—He was to lead the people of Israel into the land God had promised them. The … Continue reading Follow the Presence of the Lord

Promised Peace

October 17, 2019 / kristyjmikel / Leave a comment

On a recent visit to America, I wanted to pick up a small gift for each of our Braverly women. But I'm a person who doesn't like to just give any old gift–I want the gift to carry a meaning, to be unique or special to the person receiving it. So I was racking my … Continue reading Promised Peace

Take a Seat, I’ll do the Dishes

October 10, 2019 / kristyjmikel / 2 Comments

On nights like tonight, I relish at the fact that my back hurts from standing over my small kitchen sink for nearly an hour doing dishes. Just hours before this I was hustling around at the grocery store grabbing oranges and rambutan, peppers and tomatoes, chicken and limes–a perfect plan in place for making taco/burrito … Continue reading Take a Seat, I’ll do the Dishes

Courageous Journeys

October 3, 2019October 3, 2019 / kristyjmikel / Leave a comment

What defines a courageous journey? There are a lot of words floating around on this idea of courage, bravery, or fearlessness, but what is it really? How do you define it? Better yet, how do you live a life of courage? One of my favorite movie trilogies is The Lord of the Rings. Yeah, I'm … Continue reading Courageous Journeys

Walking in the Miraculous

September 26, 2019 / kristyjmikel / 1 Comment

I'm a words person. I love words, deeply value them even. So it's no surprise to me that the Lord most often speaks to me through a specific word or phrase. Let me explain. Years ago, I remember a moment of sitting down with the Lord and praying, "Lord, speak to me whatever specific word(s) … Continue reading Walking in the Miraculous

Time for another “Goodbye”

July 8, 2019 / kristyjmikel / Leave a comment

Our first pic as Kate was traveling to move to Thailand for 9 months. Living life overseas as a missionary, there’s one thing you get used to fairly quickly. Honestly, it’s my least favorite thing to “get used to,” but it takes the top of the list nonetheless. This life contains a lot of goodbyes. … Continue reading Time for another “Goodbye”

Pressed But Not Crushed

May 20, 2019May 19, 2019 / kristyjmikel / 1 Comment

I didn't intend to be silent for so long. I set out for this to be a place to continue to tell story, to unpack the very things the Lord and I have been walking through together - because chances are, I'm not alone on the journey. Chances are, someone else has felt something like … Continue reading Pressed But Not Crushed

To the One Who Says “I Can’t”

March 13, 2019March 13, 2019 / kristyjmikel / Leave a comment

To the one who says "I can't"... You are stronger than you know. More able than you have believed. Destined to be great where you're met with the most fear. To the one who says "I'm just"... You are creative, beautiful, and a dreamer who was made to soar. Uniquely equipped with a calling only … Continue reading To the One Who Says “I Can’t”
