Messed up kitchen: My family has food to eat. I have a kitchen in which I can prepare meals for my family and make memories with my youngest son (who happens to be a pretty significant foodie). I can create and encourage and fill both stomachs and hearts.
Evidence.
Evidence.
Evidence.
Unmade bed: We have a place to come home at night, safe from the pressures that build up and the wars that rage. God has given us a home of love and grace. He is our refuge and hope. And even when it's tough "out there," we can lie down and sleep in peace because He is in control.
Evidence.
Evidence that He uses the seemingly mundane performed by the seemingly insignficant to communicate that from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. It's all about Him.

Guilty! Guilty of being loved and provided for by an ever faithful God!
What a beautiful post and so comforting to those of us who also have laundry piles and other chores lining up for their turn at our time.
So thankful to have those chores and the family that creates messes!
Love it! Off to dispose of some evidence in the kitchen. :)
Lovely perspective, we are so blessed. Yes, His evidence is everywhere!
Beautiful post, Nikki! Such tangible evidence that we ignore daily.
Love it, Nikki! Thanks for reminding me of this. :)
And thank you, Nikki, for your friendship and encouraging words on my blog.
I am looking forward to catching up. Much love~
Those pictures are going to be so precious to you in about 10 years, don't you think? I think I'll take a few of my own. The laundry chute picture is my favorite...makes me giggle even referring to it! Thanks for the reminder that the very things that often overwhelm me or feel mundane and never ending are evidence of LIFE...and a very blessed life at that!!! LOVE YOU!
wow...that was convicting and encouraging!!! Thank you so much. Needed to read this today.
