Hi, I’m Liz!

I have a big spirit, an even bigger heart, and one that somehow keeps finding room to grow thanks to Jesus. I love deeply, feel just about everything, and have learned that some of life’s greatest blessings come wrapped in plans I never saw coming.

I’m a firm believer in God’s timing, even when it makes absolutely no sense to me in the moment. I’ve learned to laugh through the chaos, find joy in the little things, and trust that the Big Man upstairs knows exactly what He’s doing. Even when I have a few questions about His timing!

This past year, I completed the Alabaster 52-Week Bible Study and loved it so much that I went looking for another. I wanted something a little deeper, a little more reflective, something that felt like a therapy session with God. Well, I couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for, so naturally, I decided to make it myself.

And that’s how Sitting With Him came to life.

I’m married to my best friend. He’s not perfect but man does he try! And I love doing life with him. I’m a mom to our four beautiful babies. Three I carried, and one the Lord brought into our family through adoption. I truly believe each of them was hand-selected by the Big Man upstairs, and goodness, I am so grateful! Life has brought some incredibly beautiful seasons and some really dark ones, too. But through it all, God has carried me in ways I’ll never be able to fully put into words.

The more I’ve surrendered to Him, the more joy and peace I’ve found. Not because life is perfect, but because I’ve learned that His plans are far better than anything I could dream up myself. And trust me, surrendering control isn’t exactly my specialty!

My hope is that something I’ve created might help even one person experience that same closeness with the Lord. Because I’ve learned that faith isn’t about having all the answers, saying the perfect prayer, or getting everything right.

You don’t have to have it all together to sit with Him. He just wants you to come as you are. And I think that’s the most beautiful part.

With love and a whole lot of faith,

Liz
