The Season of Singleness

What would it look like to be content in whatever garden God placed you in? What would it look like to stop striving and start living from places of joy and surrender?

The Season of Singleness is a journey through one of the most transformative seasons you’ll probably experience: the one just with you and God. Are you ready for the adventure? Join Elise Lakey as she shares her story and explores life in the garden, season by season.

I love creating beauty out of chaos—bringing structure to places of unrest—and giving form to the unspeakable.

Journey with me

final poem of the month to finish out this project 🎨
the world closes & the studio opens
not a day late, just didn’t have anything to say yet #poemofthemonth
updates on the art wall from this past year 🎨
should have taken more photos of sheep
when I asked the Lord what October would be like, I felt Him say “it won’t be like what you thought it would be” so here’s a strange mixture of optimism and omen #poemofthemonth
