This year Katie's birthday post includes a surprise gathering, a long marriage, and a poem about boundary stones and covenant love.
Sometimes a birthday is less about getting older and more about noticing the ground you’ve been given to stand on.
Maybe a nap can be a small Sabbath—an act of trust that the world can turn without me, that strength is received rather than manufactured, that God still reigns— a twenty-minute liturgy of letting go.
When the world dims, another kind of light begins to appear. This is a story of losing some sight and learning to see, not what is visible, but what endures.
