it's monsooning over here.

it's been raining here for years!
okay. four or five days, but still.
cloudy days can start to get to me after a while. don't get me wrong. i love a good rainy day where i can cuddle up with a blanket, cup of tea, and a good book. but days upon days of rain really start to get me down. i start allowing myself to throw pity parties. let's get real. nobody likes coming to those shindigs. i need more sunshine! and i'm reminded of how heavy darkness is. how it can so easily seep into your soul and affect your heart, which makes spending time with jesus so important. allowing the light to shine into every corner of my heart.

the best friend had some great suggestions today for getting into the word. head on over and check out some practical ways to spend personal time with jesus every day.

p.s. i've been listening to this song a lot lately. there's just something about it.

i was born to lift a song of hope. see the heavens open up. take this armor lest i die.
take this crown and let me fly.
i'm just singing. singing over you. come and lay your troubles down.
love is breaking through.
