💋Lil Treasures #114: Mercy Seat and Unforeseen Joes
Plus pets sighing + a Mariah Carey remix
Hello friends!
We did it. We made it to Friday! I write to you today from the City of Brotherly Love, where I am here to bask in the presence of one John Clayton Mayer live in concert. I can’t believe I am going to an actual concert and I am freaking jazzed that it’s JM.
I’m going to keep it short this week, but I look forward to spilling all the concert details and word vomiting about Lent here soon.
Let’s get to those treasures, baby!
🎤 I know we are all a little scarred from Mariah Carey’s New Year’s Eve special from a few years ago, but this remix of We Belong Together has reignited my love and restored my hope in her live vocal performance.
💃 This video of a mom absolutely getting DOWN in her kitchen to her favorite song made me smile. This was my vibe last Sunday night during the halftime show. 0 regrets.
🦖I’m not great at or really that interested in trying winter sports, but I did love this little girl narrating her snowboarding journey. It is the purest thing!
🐅The Rams may have won the Super Bowl on Sunday, but young Joe Burrow from the Bengals won a piece of my heart with this video.
✝️ Just a reminder my friends - we are less than 2 weeks away from the beginning of Lent! This year’s study will be a Lenten journey through the Psalms called Mercy Seat.
I have enjoyed writing it so much and can’t wait to walk through it with all of you in The Swipe Up+! I’m prepping a Lent Primer now to be sent out next week to all of you who are already in the group. If you’d like to be a part of Mercy Seat, simply click the button below to join the private community and receive the Lent devotionals in your Inbox!
For those of you who still want a companion study for Lent but prefer a printed version, here are some great options below from years’ past:
Memento Mori: A Lenten Experience through the Sermon on the Mount (2021)
Every Broken Thing: A Guide to Answering Ecclesiastes (2020)
You can view both studies here at my online store. Don’t forget to use the code LILSWIPES for 20% off! If you would like to take part in the study but can’t drop the coin at this time, please send me an email at hello@erinhmoon.com and I’ll get you taken care of!
Okay let’s do the Tweets!
Alright I’m outie, pals. Do me a favor and have the best weekend, and be sure to share all your treasures in the comments!
Hello, Lil Swipes! I am still attempting to recover from my fun but jam packed Disneyland vacation. My friend I went with has a side hustle as a family photographer and naturally took a ton of photos and they all turned out amazing! So I’m soaking in all the nostalgia from her Instagram posts. I’d give you her account handle, but she’s a fairly private person and I don’t want to violate that.
As for me, I am still trying to get back in the swing of morning devotionals and tracking my food through Noom and working out and it has been slow going. However, like I said earlier this year, I’m working on reframing my mindset to say that progress is better than perfection instead of throwing in the towel every time I miss a day. Can’t wait to hang in the comments after work! 😘 💋
Unexpected snow day yesterday made for a mental health day. 🎉 Back at it today.
Please pray for teachers across the country who are dealing with "legislative depression" thanks to state legislatures making us all wonder what in the world we are doing with our lives and whether we should find new careers. It's rough.
