I'm Amber. I am a dreamer, teacher, daughter, and friend. I am a lover of the Lord. His grace is sufficient for me. I am redeemed.

This spring break, I said YES!, bought a dress, and booked a venue. I know four and a half months seems really fast, but for this teacher, a summer wedding has always been the dream! July 21, here we come!! #marryingmcneils 👰🏻💍💒 (at Camp Lucy)

I did what I could, and now I will continue to do what I can. I'm going to leave this out as a reminder to pray for the country I still love, for its leaders, and for its people, many who are feeling afraid, crushed, and discouraged. Pray boldly, pray often, and pray for God to bless America. 1 Timothy 2:1-3 ❤️🇺🇸💙

That wasn't fun. This season in our country, the anger, the hatred, the judgement, the social media rants, the snarky comments everywhere I go... it hasn't been fun. I'm glad it's almost over. I am confident that I educated myself well on the issues and on the candidates and that I made as informed a decision as I could have; I am confident that I made the decision with which I am most comfortable. I am not confident that I made the right decision. I am thankful that through it all, God is sovereign, and His throne is still occupied. I have peace because He's still working for our good and for His glory!! Therefore, I will pray "for all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness." - 1 Timothy 2:2 No matter what, praise God.

God longs to irrigate the everyday soil of our lives. All we have to do is clear the channels through which Divine grace can flow. Faithfulness in little things is a big thing.
Saint John Chrysostom (via contrariansoul)

I miss Disney World. Disney World is magical!! Also, my legs and feet and back hurt from days in a row in the parks, and I’m thankful for a lazy afternoon today. Getting old isn’t fun, kids. Never grow up!
