Let me tell you about my Jesus…
Tonight, we weathered a storm that, for a moment, I thought might break us.
The wind was so strong that limbs were snapping from the trees all around us. We were sitting beneath a huge tree—the same tree we park under for the shade it provides—with one large limb swaying over our trailer and tent.
I watched that limb whip back and forth above everything we have worked so hard to build—everything we are using to help support our family. I watched our tent lift into the air and slam back down against the bungee cords we had used to secure it the best we could. Lids went flying, and I was drenched trying to save the pots. I managed to save all but one lid, and after the storm passed, Marty found that last one lying near the road.
But in the middle of all that chaos…there was Jesus.
Tonight, Jesus showed Himself to us through a Muscovy duck.
While the rain beat down and the wind whipped all around us—while branches cracked and fell—our little duck friend stood tall. He tucked in his wings, held his head high, and weathered the storm.
This season of life has been so incredibly difficult for us. There have been days when I have felt beaten down, exhausted, afraid, and unsure of how much more I could carry. But tonight, through that duck, God reminded me:
Pick your head back up. Tuck in your wings. Stand firm. And weather the storm.
The storm may rage around you. Things may bend. Things may break. You may get soaked while trying desperately to hold together everything you have worked so hard to build.
But keep your head held high—because Jesus is still right there in the middle of it all.
We could have lost everything tonight.
But there was Jesus.
He protected us. He protected what we have built. And He sent a little duck to remind me that storms do not last forever—and neither will this difficult season.
So, let me tell you about my Jesus…
He is still faithful—even in the storm.

Some nights, you sell boiled peanuts.
Some nights, God sends you a reminder that people are carrying stories far heavier than anything you can see.
Tonight, we met one of those reminders.
An 86-year-old woman named Ms. Laretha pulled up to our peanut stand, driving a big truck like she'd been doing it her whole life. She wasn't in a hurry. She stayed awhile, talked with us, laughed a little, and before long, she shared a piece of her heart.
She told us she was on her way back to her daughter's house after visiting the property where her home had burned down.
Then she smiled and said her daughter thinks she's a little crazy because she goes back there almost every day. Sometimes she sits in her truck. Sometimes she sits under a tree. And there, in the middle of what used to be her home, she talks to Jesus.
"That's where my peace is," she said.
She told us she prays every day that God will restore what was taken from her. Her greatest desire isn't anything extravagant. She simply wants a double-wide trailer so she can go back home. She loves her daughter dearly and is thankful for her, but there's something about your own little piece of country, your own front porch, your own place to call home. That's what her heart longs for.
From the moment I saw Ms. Laretha, my heart softened. There was just something about her—gentle, genuine, full of quiet faith. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was supposed to pray with her.
So I asked if I could.
She smiled and said yes.
Right there beside our little peanut stand, we prayed. I asked God to keep His hand of protection on her, to strengthen her faith, to bless her with the desires of her heart, and to make a way for her to return home. I prayed that He would restore what the fire had taken and remind her every single day that He has never left her side.
When we finished, I realized she had blessed us far more than we could have ever blessed her.
Her faith wasn't loud.
It wasn't flashy.
It was the kind of faith that quietly sits beneath a tree on burned ground and still believes restoration is coming.
She reminded me so much of Miss Clara from The War Room—a woman whose greatest strength wasn't in what she owned, but in the relationship she had with the One who held her future.
Ms. Laretha, if somehow you see this—or if someone who loves you shares it with you—I hope they also tell you how much you blessed our souls tonight. Thank you for reminding us that peace isn't found in perfect circumstances. It's found in the presence of Jesus. I'll be praying that one day soon, you'll pull that big truck into your own driveway, step onto your own porch, and thank God for another answered prayer.
Because I believe He is still in the business of restoration. Will those of you who believe with me, join is in prayer.
"He restores my soul." — Psalm 23:3
