the best stuff happens when the thing you think is supposed to happen... doesn't

  • they reject your offer and then a better home suddenly comes on the market.
  • she breaks your heart and then you meet the one who makes you laugh until your face hurts.
  • you lose your job and then you start that business you dreamed about for years...

whenever the thing i think is supposed to happen... doesn't
my mom says...

God has something better for you

she has not been wrong yet.
not when it comes to big things like homes and hearts and dreams.
and not when it comes to little things like backwards books...

the store that the sweet texan opened early was all out of books we wanted for the living room
and then
we found this place...
the redesign company thrifting
seems like you can't get to the good stuff until after that hard stuff happens.
like you wouldn't know it was the good stuff if not for the hard stuff.
the shadow proves the sunshine.

you guys, the book title below...

God's Unfolding Purpose

i mean, c'mon
the redesign company books
stuff like that gets me quoting some Jesus...

ahem...

look at the birds,

free and unfettered,
not tied down to a job description,
careless in the care of God...
the redesign company before
...you count far more to him than birds...
the redesign company bookshelves
...what i’m trying to do here is to get you to relax,
to not be so preoccupied with getting,
so you can respond to God’s giving...
the redesign company backwards books
...steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions...
the redesign company backwards books
...don’t worry about missing out...
the redesign company accessories
...you’ll find all your everyday human concerns will be met...
the redesign company bookshelves
...give your entire attention to what God is doing right now...
the redesign company bookends
...don’t get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow...
the redesign company books
God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes.

- Jesus in the book of matthew


or as the avett brothers say...
there's a darkness upon you that's flooded in light


xo...

christina for all
