In a world that has more than enough information and noise, we believe it's still possible to anchor ourselves and have peace in the midst of a scattered world. We're a mother/daughter duo who span two generations, but share one message.

We will delve into what it looks like to be fully integrated- mind, body, and spirit and will bring encouragement and hope all along the way.

    69 Psalm 103 - Remembering The Lord's Goodness

    69 Psalm 103 - Remembering The Lord's Goodness

    Today, we’re continuing our Summer of Psalms series with Psalm 103. This psalm is all about mercy and compassion, and it’s a beautiful reminder of God’s loving kindness.
    As we read through this psalm, it’s a powerful reminder to remember God’s mercy and faithfulness, and to give Him praise. It’s easy to get caught up in the worries of life, but pausing to remember and praise God for His goodness can transform our perspective!
    Sometimes, we can struggle with pausing to remember God’s faithfulness. We are such a forgetful people, and it’s amazing how recalling God’s goodness can fill us with such joy and gratitude and yet at times it can feel almost impossible. But remembering and thinking on His mercies and kindness is one of the main ways He anchors us in truth, even when life feels out of control!! We invite you to take a moment to pause this week and to think on and mediate on the goodness and faithfulness of God in your own life!

    68: Psalm 91 - He is the Only Safe Place

    68: Psalm 91 - He is the Only Safe Place

    In today's episode we read and discuss Psalm 91. Often referred to as the "Psalm of Protection."
    The very first verse sets the tone, promising rest in the shadow of the Almighty WHEN we dwell in the shelter of the Most High. This chapter reminds us that it is ONLY in his presence that we will find our peace and rest.
    It is so easy to get lost in a million other things and then we find ourselves stumbling in the darkness overwhelmed and overcome. But this Psalm reminds us again that He alone is our safe refuge and our light in the darkness. And that His peace and His rest is the only thing that can sustain our hearts in the midst of the ongoing heaviness and weariness we are all experiencing.

    67: Psalm 77 - The Great Exchange

    67: Psalm 77 - The Great Exchange

    This summer, we have been taking some time to reflect on the Psalms each week. We've carefully selected eight Psalms, and today we're focusing on Psalm 77.
    If you haven't done so already, I encourage you to read through Psalm 77. The raw emotion and sincerity of the words are both comforting and humbling.
    There's a beautiful vulnerability in admitting our struggles and sorrows openly before God. Just last week, I found myself in a Psalm 77 moment, overwhelmed with grief. Everything felt like a 10 out of 10 in intensity, and I could hear God inviting me to weep and grieve fully. In those moments, I didn’t give any disclaimers; I just let my guard down and poured out every emotion before Him.
    God, in His kindness, gently reminded me to recount what's true. This aligns so perfectly with our theme today – the great exchange. The idea is that we bring our pain to God, and He, in turn, transforms it. This mirrors the meaning of baptism: going into the water one way and emerging renewed. We must not skip this process. Acknowledging our pain is essential; only then can true healing begin!

    66: Psalm 62- God is Our Refuge When People Turn Against Us

    66: Psalm 62- God is Our Refuge When People Turn Against Us

    In today's episode we are reflecting on Psalm 62.
    It's tempting to seek out others for comfort or validation, to vent or process our struggles with friends and family. And while community is important, Psalm 62 reminds us that our core identity and peace come not from human affirmation but from God's unwavering love and who HE says we are.
    In a world full of voices trying to define who we should be and what we should seek, remembering that my identity is rooted in God's perception and purpose for me is what anchors my anxious heart and steadies my soul.

    65: Pslam 43 - God is Our Refuge In Our Moment of Need

    65: Pslam 43 - God is Our Refuge In Our Moment of Need

    Today we are mediating on Psalm 43, which reminds us that "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." No matter the chaos or fear, God's presence provides an anchoring peace.
    Do we really believe that God is our real and present help in time of trouble?
    The fact is that God is ready and right there with you. God is ready to assist us and we don't have to do anything but just cry out his name. Can we really trust that the Lord will meet us in our moments of need? What if it looks different than we think?
    We encourage you to invite God in this week as you meditate on this Psalm, ask God what He’s saying to you, and to reveal His nearness to you today.

    64: Psalms 33 - He Alone is Our Deliverer

    64: Psalms 33 - He Alone is Our Deliverer

    We are continuing our Summer of Psalms, and today we’re diving into one of our favorites—Psalm 33. If you want to start from the beginning, you can go back to our first post in June. Today, we reflect on Psalm 33, looking at its timeless truths and finding a moment to pause as we meditate on its meaning.
    As we weave through life’s challenges, it can be easy to put our hope in tangible things—strategies, plans, and even people. But this scripture calls us to shift our trust toward God, acknowledging that He alone is our deliverer. This concept can be incredibly difficult, especially for us practical souls who like to plan and strategize. But life teaches us that relying on God is TRULY the only place that brings true peace.
    We often talk about the importance of pausing—taking a step back to connect with God, especially during anxious moments. Psalm 33 echoes this need for reflection and trust. "Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help, and He is our shield."
    As we wrap up, we encourage you to spend some time with Psalm 33 this week. Reflect on its truths, and let them bring you peace and encouragement. Remember, God’s counsel stands firm, His plans extend from generation to generation, and His loving-kindness is ever-present.

Less stress & Hope & healing for the broken-hearted

I loved this podcast! It so real. The way they share their stories & give such solid practical steps to healing, like pressing the pause button and letting God speak to your heart. They are very encouraging & humorous too. I definitely felt better all week as I listened to them. I had a better attitude as I went about my chores and just was all around calmer. Thank you so much Mary & Pam for this podcast. I highly recommend it & even ask my friend to listen to it with me so we can grow together. I give it 5 stars for sure! Looking forward to walking this journey with you. ❤️
