That stuff you're afraid to talk about...the sin you think is too messy? We unpack that here...
Through good and bad, sadness and joy, my heart lies with showing the goodness of God in all seasons. Especially the messy ones.
Pain.
There is purpose behind the
Beauty
There is in the chaos,
Mess,
there is meaning in the
Every day society tells us that life has to be perfect and orderly to be beautiful. Our day-to-day should be a nothing less than perfect. We need a flawless aesthetic, a five year plan and perfectly curated social media. There's nothing glamorous about disorder and uncertainty. It's not "normal" to struggle.
But God wants to use those ugly parts, too. Those broken memories, those hidden struggles, and those less than beautiful moments.
God wants to use the ugly stuff, too...

I had a breakdown the other night on the phone with my husband. Friday night, I think it was. I just seemed to have completely and totally lost sight of everything that did matter and focused instead on a bunch of junk that doesn’t. The separation is taxing and exhausting. Especially on the days where […]

Hannah over at Aspire is hosting a Black & White Portrait Challenge at her blog this week! I love Black and White portraiture. Something about the lack of saturation really makes a photo stand out. It conveys emotion and feeling better than anything in color could. I was somewhat stumped when I saw this because […]

I wrote a post the other day about how horrible I am at Fatherhood. Being a daddy is not for me. I know nothing of the sorts about football and cars and tools. I’d rather sit inside and play quietly or read or do something equally as boring relaxing. This is much, much easier said […]

As promised, I decided to make list of 25 things I’m going to do/say/change about life to really embrace every moment before I’m 25. As I mentioned yesterday in my “What is Living Beautiful?” post, we aren’t promised tomorrow. We are certain that this moment won’t be our last. And me, being the slightly neurotic […]

The past several months have been life changing to say the least. Time passes, whether we choose to enjoy the days we’re given or wallow in the self pity and sorrow that we can choose to make for ourselves. Being without my husband, being without a home of my own, being a single parent-all make […]

{ONE} My weekend was packed full of Extreme Makeover: Blog Edition. I’m sure you notice [and if you don’t, well, that’s just weird] the new look. New colors. New name. New lots of things. I have a post coming tomorrow {tentatively…} that will go into more detail and explain the new changes and what you […]

Yes. You’re in the right place. This was formerly “Make Me a Blessing” and now you’ve been redirected to something called Live Beautiful… well that’s me. Same content, different name.
