Now for some #REALTALK // This last Friday I came across half a dozen stories posts dedicated to shaming me and ridiculing my Christian faith. I won’t get too much into it here, but their intent was to “call me out” and get others to withdraw support of both mine and Luke’s online accounts.
_
A year ago, I would have felt entitled to defend myself, to call THEM out and “hold them accountable“ for their actions. But this entire last year God has been making ashes of my preconceived notion’s of justice and revealing what it means to truly “love your neighbor.”
_
My heart struggles though, you know? It struggles to do the right thing. Especially if my ego or my pride have anything to do with it. 😏But God is good, even when I am not. I believe in one God and one truth, yes. But that belief is founded upon a love SO great, that it extends to every single person on this earth. (Gods love, that is.) What would YOU do if someone decided to campaign against you for your religious beliefs? Or if they held you personally responsible for their perceptions and conclusions of your spouse/partner?
_
Head to my blog to read more about my response and the instructions given to us in these circumstances by the Big Man himself. 😉❤️

It looks like FALL in Portland these last few weeks. Growing up in Texas, I had never seen such an array of colors like you see in Oregon this time of year. I had assumed it couldn’t be that beautiful in person- chalking it up to artists taking creative liberty in paintings, movie 🎥 “editing” etc.
_
But even now, all these years later, the stunning foliage and ombré tree-scapes take my breath away.

Oh and this man right here, he’s okay to look at too. 🤪 Love ya snuggaboo @lukesmithanderson 🍂 🍃 Wearing @1215diamonds in a @diamondnexus band. #portlandcouples

Had an amazing time at the @PortlandMercado last night. Thank you @toyotausa for the annual invite!

I’ve enjoyed seeing the space and list of entertainment expand each year, to include a Dia de Muertos alter and live music this year. We enjoyed a new FAVORITE dish from the food carts too! Make sure to hit up the 🌮 cart for their mole enchiladas plate! Also, Check out my “Portland” highlight for a peek. #toyotausa #portlandmercado
