Love...


It has been almost a year since I last wrote! Wow....time flies!

In this past year, Josh and I have moved to Alabama, only to find that this is "home."
We LOVE Hamilton and all that God is doing here!
We've been students at the Ramp School of Ministry for the past 7-8 months, and we will never be the same! Hallelujah!

Now that we're all caught up...I just want to write about my husband.

Joshua DeVaney has had my heart since I was 11 years old.
I remember the exact moment I saw him and during the years that followed, Jesus saw every butterfly in my tummy that fluttered at the thought of him.
I'm still blown away that the man in my house, making breakfast in the morning, getting ready for the day with me is the same little blonde haired, blue eyed boy I met and fell in love with 15 years ago!

Let me tell you about him- just brag on him a little bit.
My carpenter husband is settled.
He knows who he is, and because of this identity, he's now telling me who I am.
He's full of wisdom. He doesn't just jump the gun- he prays and he's ok to wait.
He's dedicated fully to Jesus and to me.
His heart is pure and his love for people challenges me to love better.
He loves people- from the littlest baby to the oldest person.
He's kind and watching him do random acts of kindness moves me to be more loving.
He is the hardest worker I've ever met- his calloused hands show it.
He is so much fun! He makes me laugh until I cry and his "realness" allows me to relax and be myself.
He's my best friend- I'm lonely when he's at work....he really is my best friend.
I love this man....fiercely.

Thank you Jesus for teaming me up with a man who loves You and carries your heart.
I'm honored to change the world with him.
