about me

Hi, I'm LyndsD and this is my Scripted Heart.

Why Scripted Heart?

Back in 2009, when I felt God calling me to start this blog, the song "Unwritten" was pretty popular. You know the one... where the artist tells the listener that we write out our own stories. That our future is "unwritten." It hit me, that isn't true. Our stories have been written since before the start of time. Every twist and turn we have taken was etched into God's script of our lives. Our lives... living proof of his inked words.



When I first started this blog I felt God was just wanting me to share our marriage story. You can read about our marriage story here but over the years though, for me, it's become so much more than that. It's become a place where I can live out God's story through my life transparently. I try to be as transparent as possible. It's become a huge outlet for me.

I share the lessons God is teaching me, as repetitive as they may be. I am human after all so multiple lessons on the same topic seem to be a theme for me. I share our journey as a called homeschooling family. It's a tough road but I am constantly reminded why God called us to this season of life and I am grateful. I share about just life and hopefully hit points in between. I want to express God's hand in all that is us. We try hard to walk, trust, and seek the Lord's will in all that we do. We aren't always successful but that is the glory of our Father. I stumble daily and yet his mercies are new everyday for me. I am so grateful. I pray you meet Jesus and feel his presence as you are on this blog.

Statistics about me?

I am a daughter of a King, wife to my best friend, and mother of 3 amazing God loving children. One daughter and two bouncing boys. We had our daughter at the age of 21, and we married 9 months later, at 22 years old. Yes, We did things a little backwards. Through these years of marriage I have had the privilege of watching my husband grow into an incredible man of God. I have been blessed beyond measure.

*I became a believer at age 5. Attended a private Christian school from 1st -7th grade. My 8th grade year I was homeschooled and high school I graduated a year early from a public high school. I joke I'm well rounded.

*I didn't really understand a relationship with Christ until life hit rock bottom in 2007/2008. Changed my life!

*I love to hold a camera and capture all God sets in front of me. I secretly would love to do more with that but I am realizing I may not be called to.

*I love homeschooling our 3 wonderful kiddos for the last 6 years, and can not wait for many more years.

*I love trying to make as much homemade items as possible, but sadly it never lasts long. Only in spurts.

*I love to read but never for as long as I would like.

*I am hopelessly in love with coffee, hoodies, and football season.

*I love rocking out to Christian music

*I love Fall, anything outdoors, our Family Campout Movie Nights, good hard laughs, and friends and family.

the lists could go on and on...



We have made countless moves, mistakes, have grown through some crazy hills and valleys in our lives, and know that we still have so many joys and lessons of the Lord ahead of us in this, my script. The special one God inked out for me. I hope you enjoy reading along God's words with me.
