Five Minute Friday LIVE from the Allume Conference . . .

Start
Voice. I have used it so much today. Talking over the drone of a plane engine. Crying over missing #writethword Journibles. Screaming in excitement because the Engineer won an iPad.
But my voice . . . I want it to be the encouragement that propels my children to keep on when they want to give up. The balm to a busy husband. The song of healing to a sick child. The cheerleader to a friend who is struggling.
We look to find that voice and how to use it best. And sometimes we really don’t need to look. We don’t have to shout. The people who need to hear our voice the softest are before our very eyes.
And that is a good revelation to this mamma.

Linking up with Lisa Jo Baker for her weekly 5 Minute Friday.
Amen, mama, amen. grateful they found those Journibles! So excited to meet you IRL. I started FMF because of you! You’re such an amazing influence on me. online missionary indeed. 😉
Oh, yes: “The people who need to hear our voice the softest are before our very eyes.” That stirs a momma’s heart, doesn’t it?
What beautiful words. Thank you for this reminder to speak softly to those around me.
Jodi, you have blessed even more in person than online and I am so thankful to have connected with you! It’s easy for me to become distracted in using my voice to encourage others, forgetting those closest to me who need me most. I love them so dearly and they need so desperately to hear ME encouraging THEM first!
Blessing of a post.
