Faith. Love. Joy. And the Beautifully Ordinary Moments in Between.
Hi, I’m Vikki Lynn.
Welcome to Faith Love & Joy, my little corner of the internet where I share the ordinary moments, unexpected lessons, and simple joys that make up this beautiful thing called life.
Grab a cup of coffee or tea, get comfortable, and stay awhile.
This is a place for honest conversations about faith, life after 50, family, creativity, cozy moments, and all the little things that make life meaningful.
Because I’ve learned something along the way.
Life doesn’t have to be extraordinary to be beautiful.
Sometimes the most precious moments are the quiet ones.
A morning cup of coffee.
A good book.
A crochet project sitting beside my chair.
A conversation with someone I love.
A dog who thinks he runs the house.
A moment when God gently reminds me that He has been there all along.
A Little About Me
I’m Vikki Lynn.
Vikki to my friends and family, but Vikki Lynn here because that is what my mom always wanted me to be called.
I’m 57 years old, and I’m learning that this season of life is not about having everything figured out. It is about continuing to grow, continuing to learn, and embracing the woman God is still creating me to be.
I’m a mom, a grandmother, a sister, a friend, a reader, a crocheter, a coffee lover, and a woman who is still figuring things out one ordinary day at a time.
I don’t have all the answers.
I’m not Super Christian Wonder Woman.
I’m just me.
And I’m discovering that God never asked me to be perfect. He simply asked me to walk with Him.
What You’ll Find Here
Faith
Faith is the foundation of everything here.
Not because I have a perfect faith or a perfect life, but because I believe God is present in all of it.
You’ll find reflections on Scripture, prayer, trusting God, and the ways He meets us in ordinary moments.
Sometimes I’ll share what the Holy Spirit is teaching me.
Sometimes I’ll share the questions I’m still wrestling with.
Because faith is a journey, and we are all still growing.
Life After 50
This is where we talk about this season of life honestly.
The joys.
The challenges.
The changes.
The unexpected blessings.
From figuring out health and wellness after menopause to learning who I am in this new chapter, I’m sharing the real-life moments of being a woman over 50.
Because getting older isn’t the end of the story.
It’s a new chapter.
Cozy Living
I believe life is made sweeter by the little things.
A cozy home.
A favorite blanket.
A quiet morning.
A good book.
A creative project.
Here you’ll find the things that bring comfort and joy to everyday life, including reading, crochet, creativity, seasonal living, and the simple pleasures that make home feel like home.
If you’re looking for my book reviews and clean fiction recommendations, those live at my sister site, Clean Reads & Cozy Sips, where I share my love of books, cozy mysteries, historical fiction, and other clean reads.
Family & Relationships
Life is about the people we love.
Here you’ll find stories about family, memories, traditions, and the relationships that shape us.
You’ll also probably meet my furry companions along the way.
Percy, my little Jack Russell mix, has plenty of opinions and makes sure life is never boring.
Natasha, my daughter’s black cat, occasionally reminds us who is really in charge.
Joyful Moments
This is where we celebrate the little things.
The moments we might miss if we aren’t paying attention.
The laughter of my granddaughter.
A peaceful afternoon.
A beautiful sunset.
A finished crochet project.
A trip somewhere new.
A reminder from God that joy can be found right where we are.
Why Faith Love & Joy?
Because these three words tell my story.
Faith
Faith that God is sovereign. Faith that Jesus has already provided what I need. Faith that my past does not define me because I belong to Him. Faith that even the hard parts of my story can be used for His glory.
Love
Love for Jesus. Love for my family and friends. Love for my church. Love for my home. Love for my pets. Love for creativity, books, and the little things that make life sweet.
Joy
Joy in ordinary days. Joy in laughter. Joy in learning. Joy in creating. Joy in knowing that God is with me in every season.
This is not a place where I pretend to have life all figured out.
It is a place where I show up as I am.
Still learning.
Still growing.
Still becoming.
So Come Sit With Me
I hope this feels less like visiting a website and more like sitting down with a friend.
Bring your coffee.
Bring your questions.
Bring your stories.
Stay awhile.
Because this little corner is about finding faith, love, and joy in the middle of everyday life.
And I’m so glad you’re here.
Vikki Lynn
