For My Girls – Encouragement in Singleness.

Published on by hannah kingLeave a comment

Sister friends, these words are for you –

It’s what I have been dying to tell you along the way and all that I have learned over the past year or more of dating and waiting for a husband. Truly I have waited much longer than a year, but God did some work since 2018 and what He taught me was an anchor to my soul in the hard moments. I’ll be honest and say I have not wanted to write this post as I was afraid that it would come off as preaching and weird, but last week I read an old journal entry from last November and I felt like this was the exact message I wanted to share. So I hope my words serve as encouragement to those of you who may be in the waiting season. Cling to Hope and know that you lack no good thing.

The Pursuit in Pruning

Lately I have been learning about pursuit, specifically God’s pursuit of me. In a culture that encourages us to look at pursuit with the world’s standard instead of God’s, it is so easy to miss the small and grand ways that Jesus pursues us over and over again. But the fact that He wants to teach me about the word pursuit shows how much He is in pursuit of me. He longs for me to know about this love in a Heavenly way. And He longs for you to know it too.

John 15:1-2 says, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.  He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.”

Pursuit in the form of pruning. This is the way the Lord grabbed my attention to transform how I would come to understand this word. Sometimes the best way the Lord can pursue our hearts is by pruning a branch in order for us to be more fruitful and beautiful in the way He intended for us to be. A few months ago, this was the case for me. Continue reading “The Pursuit in Pruning” →

Nashville For A Year, Check it!

Published on by hannah kingLeave a comment

GUYSSSS, I HIT MY ONE YEAR IN NASHVILLE! It feels like 3 years ago when I was dropping off the u-haul in Music City, all possessions unpacked, ready to start over in an unknown place. However only one year it has been, and I must say, it has been one of my favorite years yet. At the beginning of 2017, I had two words to steer me throughout the year – brave and celebrate. Those words were chosen before I knew I would be living in Nashville, but with confidence, I can say the Lord used them to challenge, guide, and encourage me throughout the year. It’s never easy to begin again, no matter the circumstance, but entering into these new grounds forced me to get out of my comfort zone which allowed me to learn about myself again, making this the main reason why this year was so influential for me.
