Reframing Rain

Welcome to a gentle place of fresh perspectives through prayer, encouragement, and hope in Jesus.

Hi, I’m Kellie.

I’m so glad you’re here.

Some people call me a “hope bearer.” Sharing God’s Word, prayers, and encouragement with others brings me joy like a fresh spring rain.

Pull on cute rain boots, and let’s start reframing the rain of life together in new ways.

A bit of my story…

You can find me at home nestled into the foothills of Mt. Hood in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. 

For over two decades, I spent my days loving and teaching children. 

One day my world changed. A mass radiation accident during a teacher in-service training burned my eyes, face, neck, and hands.

Radiation burns drastically alter my daily life. I live with unceasing, 24-hour pain coupled with extreme light sensitivity. Rainy days offer a bit of relief and access to the outside world.

Many people view rain as dreary. Yet for me, rain falls as a reframed gift from God, complete with fresh air, puddles for splashing, and rain on my cheeks that feel like kisses from angels.

I wish we could take a no-umbrella walk together in the rain. I’d love to hear your stories and share with you what the Lord has been teaching me. For now, let’s take a drier approach and gather at Reframing Rain, a private community on Facebook.

The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.

Matthew 7:25
