Helping you create a haven of peace that invites God’s presence into every corner of your home and heart—because an anchored life begins where His presence dwells. Whether it’s through faith-filled homemaking, organization, or simple daily rhythms, this space is here to inspire you to cultivate a life and home grounded in grace.
Anchored in Anticipation
Waiting is hard.
Waiting for the answer.
Waiting for the breakthrough.
Waiting for the healing, the change, the restoration.
We live in a world that tells us we don’t need to wait. That if something hasn’t happened yet, we should find another way, move faster, or force the outcome. Instant gratification is everywhere, and patience feels like an old-fashioned idea.
But when you talk to someone who has waited a long time for something they deeply hoped for, and eventually saw it come to fruition, they’ll often tell you this: the journey mattered just as much as the outcome.
The waiting shaped them.
It’s in the waiting that we are stretched and challenged. It’s where our faith grows deeper roots and our character is quietly refined. Waiting has a way of exposing what we truly believe about God, ourselves, and His timing.
God’s people have always waited. They waited for promises, for deliverance, and for redemption. The longest and greatest wait was for Christ’s birth. The world waited in darkness for the Light to come.
And every moment of waiting was worth it. The Savior came, right on time, to rescue, redeem, and restore what was broken. Hope entered the world not as an idea, but as a person. Jesus came to save us, and the waiting gave way to joy.
There are several areas of my life that I am still waiting on, and have been for quite some time. If I’m honest, I’d love for the answer to come today. I’d love for the breakthrough to happen now. But as I pray over each situation, I sense God’s gentle reminder that it’s here, in the not yet, that I am being sharpened.
And I get to choose how I wait.
I can complain and allow frustration or resentment to take hold. Or I can trust that God knows what is best for me and that He is equipping me for the very thing I’m asking Him for. Trust doesn’t mean the waiting is easy. It simply means I’m choosing to believe that it’s purposeful.
So what do we do while we wait?
How do we prepare for the breakthrough we long for?
How do we stay anchored when the answers feel delayed?
It’s nothing big or dramatic. It’s actually simple…when I allow it to be.
Staying Anchored in the Waiting
Do what’s good for you every day.
Spend time with God. Move your body. Take care of yourself. Show up for the life you’re living right now, not just the one you’re hoping for someday.
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
Galatians 6:9
Do everything without complaining or grumbling.
Waiting reveals the posture of our hearts. Choosing faithfulness in the mundane is often where the real growth happens.
“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure.”
Philippians 2:14–15
Give thanks in all circumstances.
Not because everything is good, but because God is, and He is present in all of it. Gratitude shifts our focus and keeps our hearts tender.
“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
1 Thessalonians 5:18
Don’t get distracted by other people’s breakthroughs.
What God is doing for someone else does not diminish what He is doing in you. Your story has its own timing.
“Let us not compare ourselves with one another.”
Galatians 5:26
Trust that God knows what you need, and when you need it.
His timing is not rushed or careless. It is intentional, loving, and always aligned with His purpose, even when it feels slow from our perspective.
“For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1
The waiting is not a detour.
It is not a delay in your calling.
It is part of the process.
And one day, when the answer comes, you may realize that the greatest work God did wasn’t just in changing your circumstances, but in shaping who you became while you waited.
A Prayer for the Waiting
God, help me to trust You here.
In the unknown. In the not yet.
Anchor my heart in truth when I’m tempted to rush ahead or grow weary.
Teach me to wait with grace, gratitude, and quiet confidence in You.
I trust that You are working, even when I can’t see it. Amen.
Anchored in Hope,
P.S. Here is a favorite find to help keep you anchored during this season of waiting:
About The Joy of the In-Between: Do you have big dreams and can hardly wait to start the future God has planned for you? But maybe you haven’t yet arrived where you want to be. Perhaps you yearn for the spouse you’ve been praying for, the career you’ve been working toward, or the life you’ve been hoping for. Whatever your longings, waiting can be difficult. But you don’t have to wait until God answers your prayers to embrace where He has you today.

Anchored in Your Unmet Expectations
This time of year practically invites us to form expectations, expectations for the holidays, for the new year, for ourselves, and even for the people around us. And if I’m honest, I am no stranger to extravagant expectations. I imagine upcoming events with fairytale-like details and perfectly wrapped endings. When expectations are stacked that high, you’re right in guessing that very often… they’re not met.
The holidays especially stir up the temptation to craft elaborate, Pinterest-perfect visions, from the food I’ll prepare to the reactions I imagine people will have when they open their gifts. And yes, I’ve been disappointed more than once when reality didn’t line up with the picture I painted in my head.
But lately, I’ve felt God tugging on my heart, urging me to take a closer look at my expectations. As I reflect on this past year, I can see so many moments that didn’t go the way I envisioned. And yet, looking back, I can trace His fingerprints through every unexpected turn, working for my protection, guiding my growth, and teaching me how to trust His timing instead of my own.
Some expectations were rooted in my own desires without considering anyone else. Some were formed out of a desire to control what I could not control. Others were shaped by my timeline instead of God’s. And in those moments of unmet expectations, there has been this soft whisper in my spirit reminding me:
Maybe this didn’t turn out the way you hoped because you’re still learning to surrender it. Maybe the unmet expectation is actually an invitation, to give thanks in all circumstances, just like Scripture instructs.
As Christmas approaches and the pressure of holiday expectations rises, I’m choosing a new perspective this year. One that isn’t centered on the perfect gathering, the perfect décor, or the perfect menu. Instead, I’m laying down my expectations and opening my hands for whatever God wants to place there.
I want to leave space for God to surprise me.
With His goodness — reflected in a year filled with health, growth, provision, and joy.
With His faithfulness — seen in every challenge He walked me through.
With His mercy — gently revealing the places in me that needed reshaping.
With His love — always knowing exactly what I need, exactly when I need it.
So this year, I’m choosing to leave enough room between my expectations and myself… for God to intervene.
A Moment to Reflect
Take a quiet minute and ask yourself:
Where have unmet expectations left you discouraged, frustrated, or weary this year?
And what might God be trying to show you through those moments?
Invite Him into the space between what you hoped for and what actually happened.
Trust that He’s working, even when the outcome doesn’t match your picture.
Anchored Devotional
Unmet expectations often reveal where our hope has drifted from God’s hands into our own. When we realign our hearts with His will, we discover that His “no,” “not yet,” or “not this way” is never rejection, it’s redirection. He writes stories that are better than anything we could script, and He uses every unexpected turn to anchor us deeper in His love.
Let your hope settle in the One who never disappoints, even when life does.
Let your heart rest in the truth that He is faithful in every season.
And let your expectations be shaped not by perfection, but by surrender.
Personal Prayer
Lord, You see every expectation I carried this year, the ones fulfilled and the ones that left me disappointed. Today, I surrender them all to You. Quiet the pressures in my heart and help me release every picture-perfect outcome I imagined. Teach me to trust Your timing, Your plans, and Your goodness, even when things unfold differently than I hoped.
Fill this season with Your peace, Your joy, and Your gentle guidance. Shape my expectations to align with Your will, and help me find gratitude in every circumstance. And Lord, please surprise me with what You have beyond my expectations, the blessings, growth, and goodness I didn’t even know to hope for.
Anchored in hope,
P.S. I’m loving Susie Larson’s Prepare Him Room advent devotional this season. It’s such a beautiful way to refocus on Jesus. Here’s the link if you want to check it out:
About Prepare Him Room: Christmas is a time of joy and celebration. But in the hurriedness of December, sometimes we find ourselves sacrificing a sacred pace for hustle, leaving us feeling more stressed than blessed.
What if you approached this Advent more open to the things of God? What if you made room for the true joy found in the coming of our King? Prepare Him Room invites you to
● give God sacred space in your holiday season
● respond to His work in your life
● ponder the miracle of Christ within you
As you begin your Christmas preparations this year, journey through Luke's account of Jesus' birth, life, death, and ultimate resurrection. God invites you to be still and let Jesus radically transform you this holy season.

Anchored in Your Purpose
Today marks six years since my last day in my twelve-year career in the medical device industry.
It was a great job, with great pay, great benefits, and a title I had worked hard for. It was a role my heart knew I needed to leave, but my head often argued otherwise.
I loved the security of a steady paycheck, the ability to help provide for my family, the freedom of having spending money whenever I wanted, and honestly… I was attached to the identity the job gave me. But deep down, my heart was with my babies at home.
After having our third baby, I realized that having a serious career and being the kind of mom I wanted to be were no longer compatible. For over a year I wrestled with the desire to quit, and the desire to keep all those benefits. I remember driving to work in the dark early mornings, after getting up hours earlier to work out, make my lunch, and pump for my still-breastfeeding son. And I would pray: “God, please open a door for me to leave.”
But instead of opening a door, God closed one.
My amazing flexible schedule was ending, and I learned I would need to be in the office much more. The door on my career was closing… and a brand-new door was opening, one I had quietly dreamed about since the moment I became a mother.
Leaving a secure two-income household for one income was nerve-wracking. It felt like stepping off a cliff with nothing under my feet. I was exhilarated and terrified all at once. But I leapt, trusting God to meet me on the way down.
As I settled into our new rhythm at home and we made the decision to homeschool, I found so much joy, being with my kids all day, having the luxury of taking my time to clean the house, fold laundry, and care for our home. But as the newness faded, a new struggle surfaced.
I wrestled with my purpose.
With no longer being the financial contributor I once was.
With losing the prestigious title that used to define me.
With feeling like I wasn’t “doing enough.”
So I searched. I took classes, got licensed in real estate and financial services, always chasing that feeling of purpose. I prayed every day, “God, show me what You want me to do. Give me my assignment.” I waited for something big, an aha moment, a divine download, a clear line in the sand.
But the big moment never came.
Instead, the answers showed up quietly:
In early mornings reading my Bible.
In worship songs that filled my soul.
In slowing down long enough to hear God’s whisper instead of demanding His shout.
What I thought would be a grand reveal turned out to be the same whisper I had heard for years, one I had dismissed because it seemed too small, too simple, too ordinary.
My purpose is not what I do.
My purpose is who I am becoming.
God closing the door on my career helped me become a more present mother.
Starting my day in His Word helped me become anchored in Him.
Working out daily while listening to Scripture helped me become disciplined in body and spirit.
Caring for my home helped me become more grateful for what He has blessed me with.
Homeschooling helped me become a teacher, an advocate, and the steward of my children’s futures.
Purpose isn’t a job title, a paycheck, or a role. Purpose is the ongoing transformation God shapes within us, piece by piece, through every opportunity, every challenge, every season.
Looking back over the last six years, I can see it so clearly:
God has been revealing my purpose little by little-
in every trial,
every blessing,
every closed door,
and every new beginning.
And He’s still writing it.
He’s still shaping me.
He’s still anchoring my heart in Him.
Anchored in God’s Purpose
God’s purpose for your life is not something you “find” by striving or hustling. It’s something you grow into as you walk with Him. Even when you feel unsure, unseen, or in-between, He is faithfully weaving every moment into a divine purpose that will unfold in His perfect timing.
A Prayer For You:
Heavenly Father, thank You that Your purpose for my life is steady, sure, and anchored in Your love. When I’m tempted to strive or compare, remind me that my worth is not in what I achieve but in who I am becoming in You. Open my eyes to see the quiet ways You are shaping me every day. Help me trust Your leading and rest in Your timing. Amen.

P.S. Here is one of my favorite reads you can check out if you are seeking your purpose and direction💗
Popular Radio Host, Susie Larson, Shows Women How to Embrace God's Unique Call for Their Life
Listeners to Susie Larson's radio show and women she meets at events across the country tell her the same thing: I want to do something meaningful for God, but I don't know what to do, or how.
Drawing on her own hard-earned experiences, Larson shows readers how to overcome insecurities, busyness, and other obstacles in order to focus their gifts and passions on their unique God-assignment. With biblical insights and inspiring stories from a variety of women, this action-oriented guide will speak to every woman who has felt a nudge from God-from the visionary who wants to end poverty to the empty-nest mom who feels called to help the young single mother next door.
Anchor Your Routine
Life can feel like a whirlwind with tasks pulling you in every direction, unexpected moments throwing you off course, and exhaustion waiting around every corner. But when your day is anchored in a healthy routine, rooted in life-giving habits, you create stability even in chaos. A strong routine doesn’t have to be rigid, but it should be intentional, peaceful, and filled with habits that nourish your spirit, body, and mind.
Bookending Your Day With Intentional Moments
Think of your day like a journey across open water. The morning and evening are your docks, where you can safely anchor before and after the waves hit.
Starting your day with a positive, faith-filled habit (like reading your Bible, listening to worship music, journaling, or simply drinking coffee while praying) sets the tone for everything that follows.
Ending your day with calm reflection, such as gratitude journaling, reading a book instead of scrolling social media, or a short devotional before bed helps you rest in peace, not anxiety.
These daily “bookends” aren’t just habits, they’re protection for your heart and mind.
Habit Stacking: Building Powerful Routines That Stick
One of my favorite ways to build consistency is habit stacking, pairing a new habit with one you already do consistently.
For example, I love working out, and I use that time as my quiet time with God. I put in my earbuds, turn on worship music and my daily audio Bible reading, and move my body while He renews my spirit.
Maybe for you, that looks like:
✅ Praying while making coffee
✅ Listening to a devotional while brushing your teeth
✅ Reading a Psalm before opening social media
✅ Thinking of what you’re grateful for during your skincare routine
Small stacks become powerful anchors.
Why a Healthy Daily Routine Matters
A routine isn’t just about productivity, it’s about peace. When your habits are grounded in purpose:
✨ Anxiety decreases
✨ Your body feels stronger
✨ Your mind feels clearer
✨ Your mood improves
✨ Your walk with God deepens
A healthy routine brings balance, reduces decision fatigue, and keeps you anchored when emotions or circumstances try to pull you away.
1. Create a Morning Anchor Ritual.
Write down three things you’ll always start your day with (ex: Bible reading, having a glass of water, working out, quiet time). Something I love to start my day with is a good devotional, it sets me on the right track for the whole day. Waking up to the Goodness of God is one of my favorite morning reads.
Scripture highlights the significance of 40 days as a kind of pilgrimage or spiritual journey toward a deeper dependence and reliance upon God. Science highlights how 40 days of practice (of a habit, a renewed thought, a healthy discipline, etc.) directly impacts our brain's structure and physiological health.
Join best-selling author, popular radio host, and Bible teacher Susie Larson on a 40-day pilgrimage to explore God's invitation to flourish, heal, and know His peace in a way that changes us forever in Waking Up to the Goodness of God.
2. Build in Movement That Fuels Your Spirit.
Try combining workouts with worship playlists or inspirational podcasts. Exercising your body while renewing your mind and soul makes for a total body experience that anchors you for whatever comes your way during the day.
I love these Apple AirPods wireless earbuds for working out and listening to my worship playlist.
3. Set an Evening Wind-Down Rhythm.
Switch to calming routines like reading, stretching, or doing skincare while reflecting on the day. Switching over to these routines instead of scrolling, calms your mind and relaxes you before bed.
Atomic Habits is one of my favorite evening reads. It offers a proven framework for improving every day and reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results.
4. Use Habit Stacking to Stay Consistent.
Pair one new healthy habit with a routine you already have. One of my favorite habit stacking routines is to listen to a motivational podcast while folding laundry. By the time my laundry is folded, I feel productive and inspired.
This Habit Calendar is a great way to track your habits and create lasting routines. You can track up to 12 daily, 5 weekly, and 5 monthly habits every month for 2 years. Seeing your habits and goals on paper is a great way to keep yourself accountable.
5. Plan Tomorrow With Peace Today.
Write a short to-do list or prayer before bed to release stress and prepare for the next day. Writing it down helps take your to-do’s, stress, and worries off of your shoulders and puts in God’s hands.
This daily to do notebook is a great tool, featuring space for daily to do’s, notes, prayers, health & fitness tracking, a meal planner and appointments.

Steady in the Storm
When our days are rooted in God, we don’t drift aimlessly. Routines built on His presence don’t just help us survive, they help us thrive. Each moment we intentionally place Him at the center becomes an anchor that keeps us grounded when life feels overwhelming. Let your routine be more than tasks, let it be a rhythm of grace, peace, and renewal.

Anchor Your Day
Anchor Your Day: 5 Simple Ways to Stay Anchored Throughout Your Day
There’s something sacred about those early morning moments, the quiet hum before the world wakes up, the aroma of fresh coffee, and the gentle whisper of God’s presence.
As I fill my coffee cup each morning, I also take time to fill my soul with truth. I’ve learned that how I start my day sets the tone for everything that follows. Before the busyness begins, I ask God to keep my thoughts, words, actions, and attitudes in alignment with Him and anchored to His truth.
No matter where the day takes me, through joys, challenges, or interruptions, I know my anchor is secure in what truly matters. And that simple act makes all the difference.
If I ever seem like I have it all together, trust me… it’s only because I’ve gotten my fill of Jesus for the day.
1. Start with Scripture
Begin your morning by reading even one verse or devotional thought so that God’s Word grounds you before the world grabs your attention.
→ One of my favorite morning devotionals: Prevail: 365 Days of Enduring Strength From God’s Word
2.Create a Worship Moment
Play a worship playlist while getting ready, driving to work, or even working out. I love spending time with God while I exercise - it’s training for my mind, body, and soul. Worship fills my space, strengthens my focus, and reminds me that every part of me belongs to Him.
→ My favorite place to set up my worship playlists: Amazon Music
3.Keep a Reminder Visible
A small cross necklace, bracelet, or faith-inspired piece can serve as a quiet reminder of God’s presence throughout your day. I love wearing a reminder that catches my eye and takes my thoughts above my circumstances - straight back to Him.
→ My favorite faith-inspired piece: 18K Gold Cross Bracelet
4.Pause and Pray
When stress starts to rise, take a deep breath and whisper a quick prayer. You don’t need fancy words, just a heart that leans back into God’s peace. And when you have a moment, take a minute to write down your stress so you can get it off your hear and into God’s hands.
→ My favorite prayer journal
5. End the Day with Gratitude
Before bed, reflect on where you saw God’s hand that day. Gratitude resets your spirit and prepares you for peaceful rest.
→ My favorite gratitude journal

When the waves of life try to pull you off course, remember, your security isn’t in circumstances, it’s in Christ.
You can face uncertainty, frustration, or even disappointment with steady peace when your heart is anchored in Him.
Let His truth be the anchor that holds you steady today and every day.

Anchor Your Mind
Our minds are a battlefield, and the victory is determined by the thoughts we allow to take up residence there. Think of your mind as a home, one that you are the guardian over. You wouldn’t open your front door to just anyone; you’d only welcome in what’s true, honest, and trustworthy.
Thoughts are visitors that come knocking, each asking for permission to stay. Some bring peace and joy. Others bring anxiety, fear, or doubt. It’s up to us to decide who gets to enter, because what we allow to dwell in our minds eventually takes root in our hearts.
What we input through music, movies, social media, conversations, and even the people we surround ourselves with shapes the kind of thoughts we think. Over time, our thoughts form our beliefs, and our beliefs shape our actions. That’s why guarding your mind is one of the most powerful things you can do for your spiritual growth and mental peace.
Our minds are glorious creations, made to dream, create, and imagine in the likeness of our Creator. But when left unguarded, they can just as easily become chaotic, anxious, and overwhelmed. The Bible reminds us to “take every thought captive to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5). That means we don’t have to believe every thought that enters. We have the power to anchor our minds in truth.
1. Start Your Day with God’s Word
Before scrolling social media or checking messages, invite truth in first. A few verses of Scripture each morning can reset your perspective and bring peace.
The Bible Recap is one of my favorite ways to start my day and stay on track with my Bible reading. This plan helps you read the Bible through in a year, giving you the perfect amount of reading for the day, wrapping it up with a summary of what you’ve read with key take-aways. You can choose to sit down and read or listen on the go, whichever fits your day and schedule best.
2. Fill Your Atmosphere with Worship
Music has power. It can lift your spirit, calm anxiety, and shift your focus toward hope. When you fill your home or car with worship, it quiets the noise of the world. Here is a list of my favorite go-to worship songs:
3. Practice Thought Replacement
When a negative thought comes, replace it with truth. For example:
“I’m not enough” → “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
“I’m overwhelmed” → “God gives me strength.”
“These circumstances are out of my control” →”God is my anchor in every circumstance.”
Keep reminders of truth with you and throughout your house with these scripture cards. Put them on your bathroom mirror or include them in a gift for a friend.
4. Limit Negative Inputs
Be intentional about what you watch, read, and listen to. If it doesn’t align with God’s peace, it doesn’t belong in your mental home. Guard your gates like you guard your heart. Here are few great podcasts to fill your mind with truth and encouragement as you go about your day.
Coffee & Crumbs Podcast: This is a podcast for women who are navigating the joys and challenges of motherhood while seeking to keep faith at the center. The hosts have thoughtful, real-life discussions on a variety of topics, from parenting to mental health and everything in between.
The Proverbs 31 Ministries Podcast: This podcast provides biblical wisdom, encouragement, and practical insights for women navigating life's challenges. The episodes focus on topics like relationships, personal growth, and finding joy in Christ.
Women of the Word: If you're looking to dive deeper into Bible study, this podcast focuses on helping women study the Word of God with a more structured and intentional approach. They break down the Bible and equip listeners to understand and apply it in everyday life.
Journeywomen Podcast: Journeywomen offers conversations with women who share about their experiences with faith and life, with topics ranging from biblical insights to personal growth, and even to navigating trials. The goal is to encourage women to pursue Christ and grow in their faith.
Susie Larson Live Podcast: offers daily, Scripture-based conversations and interviews designed to encourage listeners to deepen their faith, find hope in hard seasons, and live out biblical truth in everyday life.
5. Create a Peaceful Routine
A calm mind thrives in consistency. End your day with gratitude, prayer, a devotional, or journaling to release worries into God’s hands.
God Hears Her is a great way to end your day, reminding you that you are intimately known and deeply loved by your heavenly Father. The personal stories, along with Scripture passages and inspirational quotes, reassure you that you are heard, cherished, and enough, no matter what you’re going through.
Take a look at Anchored Style Co. for more inspiration and favorite finds.
Anchored in Peace
When life feels noisy and your thoughts begin to spiral, pause and remember: peace is not found in perfect circumstances, it’s found in the presence of God. He invites you to anchor your mind in Him, trusting that His truth steadies what the world tries to shake.
Whisper a simple prayer today:
“Lord, help me guard my mind. Let my thoughts align with Your truth, and fill me with peace that surpasses understanding.”

Anchor Your Home
Home is meant to be our haven. It doesn’t matter where it’s located, how big it is, or how it’s decorated, what matters is the peace that fills it. Our homes are where we rest, reset, and recharge. In a world full of noise, chaos, and uncertainty, creating a peaceful, anchored home provides a soft landing place for ourselves and our families.
When our home atmosphere is calm and grounded, our hearts follow. Here are five simple ways to anchor your home, both practically and spiritually.
1. Create a Calming Morning Routine
Start your mornings intentionally. Read the Bible or a morning devotional, light a candle, play soft worship music, or open your curtains to let natural light pour in. Morning routines help set the tone for the day..
I love this faith inspired candle to help me set a peaceful tone for the day.
2. Declutter Your Space to Declutter Your Mind
A cluttered home often leads to a cluttered heart. Take a few minutes each day to tidy up and donate what no longer serves your family. A peaceful environment invites God’s presence.
These natural wicker storage baskets are perfect for simplifying and organizing.
3. Incorporate Reminders of Faith
Surround yourself with visual reminders of what’s most important, Scripture art, a cross, or a verse on your bathroom mirror. These gentle prompts refocus your heart throughout the day.
I love walking past this Scripture wall art throughout the day as a reminder that the Lord my God is good.
4. Make Space for Rest
Rest is holy. Create cozy corners where you can breathe, read, or pray. Whether it’s your favorite chair with a blanket or a candle-lit bath, rest invites renewal.
There’s nothing better than cuddling up with a knit throw blanket and taking a few minutes to read, journal, or just rest.
5. Fill the Air with Gratitude and Prayer
An anchored home is filled with gratitude. Speak blessings over your home and family. Pray together. Even when life feels uncertain, gratitude reminds us of God’s faithfulness.
A great way to keep an anchored home is by reading God’s word and learning together. Deep Roots provides a wonderful format for diving in as a family.
Take a look at Anchored Style Co. for more inspiration and favorite finds.
No matter how beautiful or peaceful our homes are, they’re only truly anchored when God is at the center. When we invite Him into our daily routines, our conversations, and our family moments, His peace fills every corner.
Pray over your home, room by room. Ask God to make it a place of His presence, a refuge from the world, and a space where His love is felt deeply. Let your home reflect His goodness and be a light to everyone who enters.
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for the gift of home. Help me create a space filled with Your peace and presence. Anchor our hearts in You, so that no matter what storms come, our foundation remains firm in Your love. Amen.

Welcome to The Anchored Life: Building Homes and Hearts Anchored in Him
This little corner of the internet was born from a simple desire:
to help women create havens of peace that invite God’s presence into every corner of their homes and hearts.
There’s something so special about the quiet moments at home—the smell of coffee brewing in the morning, the sound of kids’ laughter, the soft glow of candles as the day winds down. But somewhere in the busyness of life, it’s easy to feel unsteady. Our days get noisy, our spaces get cluttered, and our hearts long for peace again.
That’s what led me to create The Anchored Life.
This little corner of the internet was born from a simple desire: to help women create havens of peace that invite God’s presence into every corner of their homes and hearts.
Because I’ve learned that an anchored life begins where His presence dwells.
For years, I’ve carried a deep longing to blend faith and homemaking, to create spaces that don’t just look beautiful, but feel peaceful. The kind of peace that runs deeper than fresh flowers or clean counters (though those are lovely too!).
It’s the peace that comes from knowing that, no matter what storms come, your heart, and your home, are anchored in Him.
I’ve walked through seasons that felt uncertain, overwhelming, and even painful. But each time, God gently reminded me that I don’t need to have it all together; I just need to stay anchored to Him.
And that’s the heartbeat of this blog.
What You’ll Find Here:
✨ Faith-filled homemaking inspiration
✨ Cozy, peaceful organization tips
✨ Devotionals and reflections for everyday life
✨ Encouragement to slow down and savor your season
My hope is that every post helps you breathe a little deeper, see God’s hand in the ordinary, and find joy in building both a home and heart anchored in His love.
My Prayer for You:
As you read these posts, may you feel inspired, not to chase perfection, but to pursue presence. To invite Jesus into your routines, your spaces, and your family moments.
Because He’s not just found in the quiet of Sunday mornings, He’s present in the sink full of dishes, the bedtime prayers, and the laughter echoing through your kitchen.
May your home be a haven.
May your heart be still.
And may your life be beautifully anchored in Him.
Welcome, friend—I’m so glad you’re here. 🤍
