When the waiting feels lonely

December 3, 2022 / Hannah Jessen Conway / Leave a comment

I like to think of Advent as a beautiful season of anticipation, joy and expectation. And while it is those things, it can also be quite lonely. We might be waiting for things that others don’t understand or that they themselves haven’t had to wait for. I think about people who want to have a … Continue reading When the waiting feels lonely

Stop waiting for a worry-free season.

May 2, 2022June 23, 2022 / Hannah Jessen Conway / 1 Comment

We’re two weeks in to being parents and the worries haven’t stopped. I knew deep down they wouldn’t - that they would just “transfer.” During pregnancy, I was scared of losing the baby. As we got closer to our due date, I was scared of something happening during delivery. And now that he’s here, I’m … Continue reading Stop waiting for a worry-free season.

“Give us this day our daily bread” is a hard prayer to pray, especially in seasons where the future is uncertain.

Advent, week 3 // Though it tarry

December 14, 2021 / Hannah Jessen Conway / Leave a comment

In a season known for its hustle and bustle, the idea of waiting may feel a bit dissonant. But as we learn from the book of Habakkuk, and from celebrating Advent year after year, our questions aren't always answered in the way – or in the timeframe – we think they should be. In Habakkuk … Continue reading Advent, week 3 // Though it tarry

Advent 2021: Promises from Habakkuk

November 27, 2021 / Hannah Jessen Conway / Leave a comment

I am not good at waiting. I’m not a naturally patient person. And yet, Advent is one of my favorite times of year. A season that is ALL about anticipation, all about waiting. A season that we’re about to enter into.  This year instead of just reading about Advent, I wanted to write about it. … Continue reading Advent 2021: Promises from Habakkuk
