Hi, I’m Kristi

a follower of Christ,

and someone who deeply desires to see others pursue the heart of God, live the story He has written for them, and press on toward the upward call.

Having walked through seasons of both joy and deep refining, I’ve learned that God meets us in every moment—gently drawing us closer, strengthening our hearts, and faithfully leading us forward. My journey has been one of learning to trust Him more fully, to surrender more deeply, and to keep going even when the path isn’t easy.

I’m also a wife, mom, and “Grammy,” and after many years of serving in ministry, my passion remains the same: to uplift, encourage, and walk alongside others as we pursue Him together.

This online heart home was born out of that place –

a quiet invitation to sit with Him, to be encouraged, and to be reminded that your life holds purpose, beauty, and meaning in His hands.

Here, I share from my heart through Scripture, reflections, and honest encouragement—hoping to help you draw nearer to God, walk in faith, and embrace the story He has written for your life.

So whether you’re in a season of waiting, or renewal…
You’re welcome here.

If your heart longs to draw nearer to Him…
If you desire to grow steady and strong in faith…
If you want to live fully for His glory…

Then come. Sit with me.
There’s a warm cup waiting for you.

My favorite season And Holidays.

Spring – for the new beginning of life and the soft colors. Christmas — my utmost favorite, everything about it. I also like Easter and I do like Valentine, too.

Coffee or Tea?

Absolutely tea! I like a hot cup of tea beside a lighted fireplace, wrapped in a cozy blanket with cozy socks on and a book in my hand. I do like ice tea in the Summer, too. I also enjoy a good peppermint white mocha.

Favorite hobies?

First most – I strive being with my family, my kids and grandkids. I am a avid reader, especially with historical novels. I enjoy kayaking with my kids. I also enjoy camping, walking, and traveling.

My Motto Scripture

Philippians 3:12-16

Amplified Translation
12 Not that I have already obtained it [this goal of being Christlike] or have already been made perfect, but I actively press on [a]so that I may take hold of that [perfection] for which Christ Jesus took hold of me and made me His own
13 [Brothers and sisters, I do not consider that I have made it my own yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead,
14 I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
15 All of us who are mature [pursuing spiritual perfection] should have this attitude. And if in any respect you have a different attitude, that too God will make clear to you.
16 Only let us stay true to what we have already attained.

Passion Translation
12 I admit that I haven’t yet acquired the absolute fullness that I’m pursuing, but I run with passion into His abundance so that I may reach the purpose that Jesus Christ has called me to fulfill and wants me to discover
13 I don’t depend on my own strength to accomplish this; however, I do have one compelling focus: I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart to the future instead.
14 I run straight for the divine invitation of reaching the heavenly goal and gaining the victory prize through the anointing of Jesus.
15 So let all who are fully mature have this same passion, and if anyone is not yet gripped by these desires, God will reveal it to them.
16 And let us all advance together to reach this victory prize, following one path with one passion.
