Grief is deep and wide. So is joy. ✨ And sometim Grief is deep and wide. So is joy. ✨ And sometimes they are mixed together.

Yesterday would have been my Dad’s 79th Birthday. Instead, we marked 41 days since he left us.

Mom and I spent the day together. 💛 We celebrated as much as we could. We did the things he would have wanted to do. We enjoyed the things he enjoyed. We ate well. We sat in the sunshine☀️ . We got to breathe in the crisp fall air. 🍂 

I am so delighted that I got to spend the day with my Momma. We smiled. We remembered. It was a good day.

Happy Heavenly Birthday, Dad. 🩷 It’s been 4 Happy Heavenly Birthday, Dad. 🩷 

It’s been 41 days since you left.

So much has happened and we have missed you. But we are trying our best to love and laugh and celebrate. ✨We know that’s what you would have wanted. 

And so, I’m trying. We are trying. 💔 We love you. We miss you. 

Thank you to @olhapro_photography for this photo. As I was signing my books in Paris, I got to look over and see this portrait of my parents. Their presence was with me at my Book Launch. Now I am lucky enough to have closed out my wedding season with the most precious couple, and am back to NY to spend some time with my Momma. 🎃 It’s time for cider and donuts and pumpkins here, and I am all in! 🍁

✨ This evening was everything I could have dream ✨ This evening was everything I could have dreamed of: to be surrounded by joy and embraced with love as I raised my glass and read “A Toasting Benediction” from my own book!

Never in a million years did I dream of writing this book though. 💔 The hard parts, the pieces of my heart that were broken, the grief and sorrow that held me captive for too long - none of that was a dream. No one wishes to write a tale that exposes their scars and opens their hearts so vulnerably. 

But so many of the people gathered in this room for my Paris Book Launch held me together in one way or another. They pointed me toward Jesus and helped me to remember the God I once knew, and not the Executive Jesus who had been running my life inside of the institutional church. They were patient with me when I had nothing but brokenness to offer back and loved me with prayer, Thai soup, friendship, and a little champagne. 🍾 

This project was LONG, winding, frustrating, and liberating. And now, it is here. It is full of hard words, yes, but it is full of prayers, benedictions, and liturgies. It is full of hope. ✨ 

My dream for this little book of mine? That it would reach the people who need it, that it would offer words of encouragement for those who need them, and that it would be a reminder of the depth, breadth and power of love. 💗 

Ruffled By Grace is here. My heart is full. Gratitude and grace abound. 🩷✨🍾

My thanks to @phylliskentevents for perfectly planning everything.

Thank you to @olhapro_photography who captured everything so beautifully. 

A million words of thanks to @alacroixpatissier. They had the most amazing staff, and prepared the most incredible food in their cozy space.

And to @tehomcenterpublishing for taking a chance on me, and all the words in this book.

🍂 There's a chill in the air in the French coun 🍂 There's a chill in the air in the French countryside and I can feel the seasons changing. I am finishing my last weddings of the fall season, and I am ready to tuck myself into the coziness of Autumn. 💛  Sharing with you this blessing from Ruffled By Grace in the hope that you will find rest and rejuvenation in this season:

🍁 An Autumn Blessing 🍁 

As the days grow shorter, remind me that darkness can bring the
comfort of rest. As the leaves fall around me, give me the grace to
know that life holds both moments of death and rebirth. As the cool autumn breeze blows over my face, let me rest in the knowledge that your Spirit guides through every season.

✨ Grateful to Good Faith Media for the opportuni ✨ Grateful to Good Faith Media for the opportunity to write for them, and particularly for the chance to share with you this adaptation of the homily that I gave at my Father's memorial service on September 13th of this year. 

"My faith tells the story of a kind and gracious God standing in an emerald meadow, beckoning each of us home.

🍃 When we reach the lush, broad place, we will be embraced by the Divine, and we will look upon the waters from which all life flows. The crystal-clear water will be so still that it will serve as a mirror for us to see ourselves as we truly are—a reflection of Divine love. ❤️ 

I hope my dad has had this welcome."

A Blessing of Tears O Divine Spirit, capture my te A Blessing of Tears
O Divine Spirit, capture my tears in your heart...

I have been holding this prayer close to my heart. 🩷 

When things are heavy and hard, it is good to remember that our tears are holy.

They carry both our grief and our joy, and in releasing them, we find comfort, renewal, and even sacred connection. ✨ May every tear water the soul and remind us we are always embraced in love. 🥰
