learning to rely on God throughout our day

Welcome! 

I’m Teresa, and I am so glad you’re here.

Do you feel like a lot of things in your life are up to you? Do you tend to go to God with the big stuff and try to handle everything else in your own strength?

Who or what we rely on makes all the difference.

We are never on our own. God wants us to rely on him throughout the day.

I’m here to come alongside you and help you learn ways to rely on God more.  We’re in this together as lifelong learners. Even when we’re inconsistent, God remains steadfast and continues to form relationship between us. Every day he gives you and me more of himself. 

Learning to rely on God is not a rule to follow. It’s the way to a relationship to enjoy.

I took this picture years ago when Terrell and I w I took this picture years ago when Terrell and I were walking on the beach. I imagined that a child put it there for safe keeping until he or she came back outside to play, and that made me smile.
.

Today, this old photo grabbed my attention for a different reason. I was looking for something to post on my website with my newest podcast episode—and this picture shows how I felt some days when I woke up excited for the day and then somehow ended up in a stuck place, frustrated with how I was handling disobedience.
.

Maybe you can relate??!
.

When our kids were toddlers, two questions quickly surfaced: How am I going to respond to disobedience? What’s my goal when I respond? I realized my need to distinguish between punishment and correction. Listen in for how this understanding lifted a huge burden off my shoulders and placed a plan in my heart.

Hi Everybody, This is a glimpse of my new website Hi Everybody, This is a glimpse of my new website design!  I’m so excited to share it with you. 🎉🥳 I wanted to create a landing page to make it easier to access things I’ve written.
.

Moms, you can find my new parenting podcast here.  And we’ve added links to most of the places you can find my book (audiobook and paperback). And one category of blog posts is devoted to Family.
.

The other 5 blog post categories are for 💚EVERYONE💚 (not just moms) and I grouped the posts so you might easily find what you’re searching for. I labeled these Encouragement, Faith, Flourishing, Prayer, and Relationship.
.

There’s more to see, so I hope you’ll take a peek! 👏👏And maybe share it with friend or two?! 👍
.

And…If you or a friend are looking for someone to design or redesign a website, I highly recommend @gretlouise! (gretchenlouise.com)  Everything technical feels daunting to me, and Gretchen patiently helped me understand how to maneuver behind the scenes on my shiny new site, which saves me so much time.  She’s easy to talk to and exceptionally knowledgeable.

Do you have something that you hope for?  It migh Do you have something that you hope for?  It might be for yourself, for someone you care about, or both.

When the circumstance doesn’t change or even gets worse, or when our effort seems unnoticed or ineffective, it’s understandable that we become discouraged, disappointed, or even question whether we should give up and let it go.
.

I’ve moved through all those phases while hoping for something, and what I’ve learned is this:  How we move through them matters.
.

On the blog this week, I share a way to wait and a prayer exercise that you might find helpful.  Link in bio!

Are you overwhelmed by your to-do list? I have be Are you overwhelmed by your to-do list?  I have been recently.  My exhales are getting louder by the day. Do you ever do that?  Or maybe, you have a growing sense of aloneness or deepening sadness . . .
.

Last week I missed a couple of days of the Advent calendar, and I thought, Gosh, I need to catch up. But then I thought, No. This is not another ‘to DO.’ This is ‘to BREATHE’ — to pause the hurry, quiet my heart, and BREATHE IN the peace of God’s word, talk to him on someone else’ behalf, and enjoy blessing someone, maybe even a stranger.
.

Many of you have downloaded the Advent calendar – Thank you! I am praying for you, that Jesus’ light and peace abound to you this Advent season.

You still can still download it. (It’s FREE!) Just go to the link in my bio.
