Welcome

Hello! I'm Danita Jenae.

author | speaker | artist | prayer warrior

I'm a recent military widow learning to carry joy and sorrow in the same breath.

I'm also a young mom who is NOT afraid of sprinkles and glitter!

With me, you'll learn practical and creative ways to draw near to God.

Muito prazer! Mucho gusto! A pleasure to meet you!

Loving this?

Pretty much all I write is laced in prayer, surrender, redemption, and intimate friendship with God. But sometimes, you'll just get utter cheese-ball.

I'll also send you printable, hand-painted scripture cards by yours truly. Just because I like you!

love, danita jenae

hope, five-fold:

smells like the sulphur of an old fashioned match, striking

feels like swollen hands of a pregnant mother, massaging

tastes like tears, weeping

sounds like pops of pine straw, kindling

looks like roots in drought, deepening

it's birthed in suffering,
grows up only in hopeless terrain

we water hope with our tears.

After losing my husband, I've never understood hope this clearly. Hope only rises and takes root in hopelessness.

Thank you @emilypfreeman for asking what hope smells like. It's the perfect question.

I lift up 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

Sitting with Isaiah today. I love that this is the first passage Jesus read. It shows how much He is called to, drawn to, and always thinking about us... the brokenhearted.

We're snowed in today. Forecast is 5 feet. Is that even a thing? Been up since 5am (no, 3am) sorting out flashbacks and trauma and everything that went wrong. My forecast is more tears and doodles and laughter. And I see "Silence and Solitude" by @ruthhaleybarton and it beckons me.

"The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me... he sent me to bind up the brokenhearted... to comfort those who mourn... to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes..."
-Isaiah 61

Isn't that unexpected? That suffering (what makes us feel hopeless) is the catalyst for producing hope in us? What?!

I love decorating with intention. Little bits of whimsy, love, and memory. It all tells a story.

Freshened up the entryway for spring. It always takes me about 2 full years to get my bearings and shuffle things into the right place as we move into a house. #INFPproblems

Sometimes you wonder if its worth since it's never the forever-home we long for. But it is the for-now-home. #militarywifelife

This earth is certainly not our home, but we can most certainly bring heaven down to earth while we're here. I started small in the entryway. #hebrews11

Dan's BDU cap hangs above .these roses and his boots .greet me at the door. It's a reminder that his legacy of prayer is still covering us and our home.

Have you honored loved ones you've lost in any way in your home? Grande or subtle? I'd love to hear about it.🖤
