My Heart behind “There’s so much more”
It feels so right to launch this blog on my 35th birthday.
The number 35 in the Bible symbolizes God’s mercy and provision. It also means “to learn” and “to teach.” That feels so intentional — like God is weaving something new as I step into this next season of sharing my heart with you.
Starting a blog has been a quiet dream tucked away in my heart for over a decade. Life happened — and if I’m being honest, so did a lot of overthinking — and the dream got pushed to the back burner.
But in June 2024, during one of the hardest seasons of my life, God gently brought it back to the surface. While experiencing a miscarriage, in the middle of grief and heartache, I felt God whisper there was still so much more ahead — not just for me, but for anyone trying to navigate loss, growth, joy, and uncertainty.
I pressed my way to church that Sunday, even though my heart was heavy.
During worship, the team began to sing: "Exceedingly, abundantly, above all that you can ask or think." Then they shifted to: "He’s going to do so much more!"
Standing there, surrounded by those words, I felt God’s presence in a way I can’t fully explain — a reminder that even in a season of loss, He was still writing a bigger story. That’s when this space, There’s So Much More, was born — right there in the middle of my worship and surrender.
Here, I’ll share my heart about the pieces of life that have shaped me and continue to — marriage, motherhood, grief, pregnancy and infant loss, and navigating my career and calling. These are the spaces where I’ve experienced great joy, deep sorrow, and a lot of unexpected grace along the way.
My hope is that as I share, you’ll feel a little less alone — and maybe even catch a glimpse of the “more” God is working in your story too.
P.S. I’m so glad you’re here. If anything I share speaks to you, I’d love to hear your story too. I pray this becomes a place where we can grow together and keep chasing after the MORE He has for us.
