Most of us have been taught to bow our heads in prayer. But what if the power we seek isn’t beneath us – but above? “I lift my eyes to the mountains – where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the maker of Heaven and Earth.” Psalm 121:1-2 I noticedContinue reading “Lift Your Eyes”

He Washed Feet
Something I’ve been thinking a lot about recently is Jesus’ response to death. Jesus knew He was going to die. And what did He do on His last day? He washed feet (John 13:1-17). Wow. That’s an incredibly selfless gesture. I feel like many of us have pondered this question: what would you do ifContinue reading “He Washed Feet”
Valley of the Shadow of Death
Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” This verse has been the verse I cling to in the darkest valleys, on the brightest mountain tops, and everywhere in-between. I haveContinue reading “Valley of the Shadow of Death”
Poland: God Will Use Your Yes
A week ago today I was just getting back from my week-long mission trip to Poland. The trip wasn’t what I expected but I experienced way more than I ever thought I would. It was a trip full of the highest highs and the lowest lows. In reflection of my time in Poland as IContinue reading “Poland: God Will Use Your Yes”

Poetry: A New Heart
You speared me from the depths; piercing my wound. You pulled me up from below; how I hated you. I could feel every tug, I was broken. But your light showed me love and I took it. Sinking couldn’t heal, breaking made me whole. My heart needed to shatter so that you could give meContinue reading “Poetry: A New Heart”
Poetry: The Kingdom of Heaven
Stand before the King himself. Bubbling joy spurts from the soul. Angelic beings float above. Grace abounds in enveloping love. Questions of ‘whether’s, what if’s, and am I’s’ coming together to form ‘I tried.’ Knowing sprouts from the base. “Lord, I come to take up my place.” Carry my burdens, my cross, and mistakes. SpreadingContinue reading “Poetry: The Kingdom of Heaven”
My Testimony: Part 1
In the spring of 2011, my dad, Brian Dickinson, left to climb the highest mountain in the world. He ended up summiting Mount Everest on May 15, 2011. For more about his story, you can find his book here. Although Everest may be my dad’s story, his story is still part of my own. IContinue reading “My Testimony: Part 1”
