Gentle grace: The calling

With Love and Grace Anchored at the Center

 God is good all the time. Even when life feels overwhelming. Even when there doesn’t seem to be enough of me to go around. Even when the voices of doubt and fear whisper, “Do you deserve this? Can you really do this?”

 When I finally submitted my life fully to God, I started chasing the Maker and not the gifts. I learned that it isn’t my striving or service that brings peace or favor—it’s Him. Only Him. The Grand Provider. The Master Designer. The Artist.

 And when I surrendered, I became pliable. Movable. Softened. Molded. Chiseled. Polished.

Here I am now, stepping into year 37. Hopeful. Optimistic. Sometimes overwhelmed by the catching up I feel like I must do to sustain the life I’ve prayed for. But even in those moments, I remind myself to be still and know that God holds my heart and His perfect plan is at work.

 This past year, I’ve watched Him move at an immeasurable pace. I met the love of my life at a time when I felt unworthy and broken. I thought I had tested God’s patience beyond repair. But in surrender, He moved. Slowly, but steadily, I watched as my life transformed in ways I didn’t even know how to pray for.

I now find myself surrounded by the things I had always longed for: a loving, whole family. A forever home. A community that feels like a sanctuary. And while it’s far from perfect, it is rich with love and God’s fingerprints.

 So, this is a soft launch of sorts—a gentle dip into the waters of this new season. I don’t have the perfect plan for sharing our story, our daily moments, or the journey we’re on, but I serve a perfect God who will guide me.

I am grateful for the people who sit at my table. For the ones who cheer me on. For the ones who will journey alongside me, sharing their stories and raising their families with mine.

 Psalm Haven Collective is a fresh wind. A place to rest in the Maker’s timing, to be unafraid, bold, and fiercely in pursuit of love, creativity, and faith. It’s about capturing the beauty in the small things, the sacredness of family, and the joy found in doing life together.

The photography is still here. The art will always be here. But this space is more than that. It’s a call to love others well, to live slowly and intentionally, and to trust God’s unfolding plan.

Thank you for being part of this season with me. I am so excited to transform this forever home into a creation that reflects love, faith, and family. To root down and grow. To soak in these moments of grace and purpose.

 May this space inspire you to do the same. May it be a call to action for love, for community, and for peace. Let’s find it together.

 With love, heather
