2025 was a year of dependency on the Lord. It was a hard year for many reasons (battling sickness, adjusting to mother hood, losing peanut, Ollie getting diagnosed with lymphoma, experiencing PPD, and so on) So many attacks from the enemy stealing my joy, my passion, my creativity! But God is steadfast. How lucky are we that even when we feel defeated, broken, like giving up - we have a God who holds the entire world together. My problems though they may feel impossible there is nothing impossible for God. He owes me nothing; which is counter cultural to what we are told. Though the enemy tries to stop me, I know God has big plans for me and .lori.sh! It may look different than what I thought but He is in control! It may be hard but God is still SOOO SOOO GOOD!
So thankful for all the people God brought into my life. So many of my brides had no idea what was going on behind the scenes yet encouraged me with sweet messages and confidence in me! Thankful for Matt who kept everything moving when I couldn’t myself. Thankful for Miles for bringing so much joy and excitement! This boy went from sleeping on the job to pushing carts and taste testing all flowers lol! Thankful for vendors who saw me at my worst and helped me literally stand up at times. Thankful for family who jumped in with setups and deliveries and tear downs. You’ll never know how much it all meant to me. A humbling reminder that God uses all my moments to impact others, to be mindful of how each interaction goes!
When life feels overwhelming, when it feels like all is lost - God is still who He was and is and forever will be. This world is broken and full of tough things, but I don’t live for this world ! 2026 is a year dedicated to keeping my eyes fixed on God not circumstances, not people’s judgement, nothing of this world!
Lord this business is yours. Use it how you see fit!
