A Day in My Life: Simple Joys and Everyday Grace

Mornings in my house start with the smell of coffee brewing and the soft glow of the sun slipping through the curtains. I like to take my time waking up, stretching beneath the covers before finally convincing myself to get out of bed.

After getting ready for the day, I spend some time in the Word. There’s something grounding about reading the Bible in the morning, like setting my heart on the right path before stepping into the world. Some days, a passage will stick with me, lingering in my mind like a melody. Other days, it’s just a simple reassurance—God’s presence, steady and near.

Today, I’m meeting my mom for coffee at a local coffee shop.

We had a great time and great conversation not to mention the food and coffee are delicious.

When I got back from meeting with my mother, I tidied my apartment, Mondays are my cleaning day and I have a very specific cleaning routine that I will write a blog post on soon 😉

After that, I made myself some lunch, breakfast burritos with gluten-free cassava tortillas.

After eating lunch, I made some chocolate swirl banana bread and then I got started on making dinner. For dinner I’m making pizza so I had to make my pizza dough for my sourdough Discard.

Evenings are my favorite. My husband and I wind down together—sometimes watching a show, sometimes just talking about our days. These are the moments I cherish the most: the laughter, the quiet companionship, the simple joy of just being together.

Before bed, I like to reflect, pray, and sometimes read a little more. The day wasn’t perfect—no day ever is—but there’s always so much to be grateful for and having a heart of gratitude changes your whole perspective.

And just like that, another day ends. Simple, full of small joys, and always, always covered in grace.

Love,

Moriah and Hope
