About Danielle
Hi! I’m Danielle. I’m a northern girl raising my family in the south. If you catch me, I’ll let a Boston style “wicked awesome” slide out. I embrace my awkward, loud self, and don’t apologize for being me. As my little girl says, “God made us all unique in our own way.”
I’m a full-time working, homeschool mama married to my high school sweet heart. We actually met at a homeschool group. Yes, we were those kids. We have one beautiful, pink and pony loving daughter. She is the light of our lives. I am a therapist at a psych hospital. I wish I could share all the stories of what happens there with you, but there is this silly thing called HIPPA. Believe me, you name it, I’ve seen it!
Coffee is my emotional support drink – it’s been with me through all my storms and every therapy session. But, my Lord is the reason I rise every morning.
Danielle’s Story
I’ve gone through many storms in my life. Sometimes it feels as though I’ve been standing under a cloud since I was 14, but the Father has been leading me through every step of the way. I came to Christ at the young age of 3 in a small church in Maine. At 4, I was and still am the youngest my pastor has ever baptized, but he said I knew in my head and heart what I was doing. The Lord has brought me through many different storms all of which have contributed to the woman of God I am today. If it wasn’t for His steadfast love and amazing grace I never would have made it through stronger.
Mission
Life is crazy, and we live in an even crazier world. Long days and even longer nights plague us. Work never seems to end and neither do the laundry or dishes. In the midst of the crazy, storms come and rage against us. We question why me, why this, why now? We pray for God to take away the storm cloud, but what if instead of removing the cloud we learned how to find the Son in the midst of the storm?
It is my desire to point others to the Son when life seems hopeless. He is my hope despite what this life brings. Even if life doesn’t work out how I want when I want, and even if this cloud is never taken away, my hope is in Christ alone and His Kingdom come. When we choose to hope in the Lord in the middle of the storm despite the outcome, we develop faith in His goodness, which breeds peace in the storm.
Let’s choose to love the crazy life we live.
Let’s choose to hope in the Son in the storm.
Let’s learn to be thankful for the rain.
“Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him?” —Mark 4:41
