Happy Friday, friends! We are currently up on the North Shore (I wrote this a few days early) with some good friends working on their land, fishing, fourwheeling, and playing games together. This past week I spent a lot of time with my family because my brother was in town for a week. We went fishing a few days (my parents live on a lake) and I love the simplicity that comes with quality time. Laughter, inside jokes, and enjoying meals as a family. Everything is green and blooming and I’m remembering how May is definitely in my top 3 for favorite months to be outdoors – cool mornings and the Minnesota humidity doesn’t exist yet.
Here are five bits of goodness to kick off the weekend:
- I dove back into this devotional lately. It challenges me more than any other devotional I’ve done and I love how is derives from scripture directly.
- My husband and I went on our first kayak date night last week. They are our favorite! We bring a cocktail or some wine and paddle for awhile and then meet up somewhere on the lake and talk. Being in this setting for some reason has allowed for some of our sweetest conversations together.
- Nourish Move Love workouts have been on repeat the past two weeks. I am so grateful for her 7 and 14 day challenges and it’s a bonus that she is from MN and loves the Lord! Her style of workouts are also the kind I enjoy most, too, (strength and cardio combined) and have made it easy to get into a routine again that I can stick with.
- I purchased a daily pill organizer for my vitamins recently and I have been loving that part of my morning routine. Do you take vitamins regularly? Linked it here.
- I’ve been learning a lot about identifying as a Christian in today’s society and also about how we cannot possibly ruin God’s plan for our lives. Often times when we don’t have answers or are confused about something of this world, we think God is keeping something from us. I’ve been comforted knowing God doesn’t do this to punish us. He loves us, wants to protect us, and calls us to continue to walk in obedience to Him. He is all we need and He is enough! Let’s keep Him as our Peace by staying connected to Him daily.
