She Loves Tennessee Orange

❤️ Happy Independence Day! ❤️

Today we celebrate the freedoms we enjoy as a nation, while giving thanks for the God who grants us hope, strength, and purpose each day.

As fireworks light up the sky and families gather together, may we also pause to remember those who sacrificed so that we could enjoy the blessings of liberty. Let us never take freedom for granted, but use it to love one another, serve our communities, and honor God in all we do.

My prayer today is that your home is filled with laughter, your heart with gratitude, and your spirit with peace. May God's favor rest upon our families, our communities, and our nation.

Wishing you a safe, joyful, and blessed Fourth of July!

❤️🤍💙

Grace & Grit,

**☀️ LOGISTICS DAY EVE ☀️**
**Breakfast at the Workplace** 💙🥐☕

This morning was about more than breakfast—it was about saying **THANK YOU** to an incredible team that keeps everything moving every single day.

From breakfast burritos and pastries to fresh fruit and hot coffee, we wanted to start the day with a small token of appreciation for the people who make a big difference. Your dedication, teamwork, and commitment never go unnoticed.

A great team deserves to be celebrated, and today we celebrate **YOU!**

Here's to a productive day, a grateful heart, and a workplace where people feel valued.

**Thank you for all you do!** 💙🚚☕🥐

🌙 Evening Reflection
Tuesday, June 23, 2026

As this day comes to a close, take a moment to reflect on what God may have revealed to you.

Did a memory surface?
Did a wound come to mind?
Did God gently remind you that He is closer than you realized?

Healing begins with honesty, and today you took an important first step.

Before you rest tonight, thank God for meeting you exactly where you are and ask Him to continue His healing work within your heart.

You do not have to carry tomorrow what God is asking you to surrender today.

Rest well knowing that God is near.

☀️ Midday Check-In
Tuesday, June 23, 2026

How are you doing with today's devotion?

Being honest about our hurt isn't always easy. Sometimes the strongest thing we can do is admit that something still hurts.

Remember, God already knows what you're carrying. Today's invitation is simply to bring it into His presence.

Take a moment this afternoon and ask yourself:

💛 What am I still carrying?
💛 What do I need to surrender to God?
💛 What healing might begin if I stop pretending I'm okay?

One honest conversation with God can change everything.

Grace & Grit w/Glenda ☕📖
