   Mary or Martha? Oh the choices we make!

   Hey y’all—Piddlin & Ponderin’ is back! 🎉 In this comeback episode, Ashley opens up about a three-year wrestle that ended with closing Silver Lining, letting go of the busy for the fruitful, and finally choosing “the good part” (Luke 10:38–42). From porch prayers and Chick-fil-A lessons to poinsettias, papaw’s mushroom pot, and a brand-new greenhouse, it’s a story of God’s timing, tender correction, and real-life surrender. If you’re weary from doing, come sit a spell—this conversation will lift the weight and re-center your heart on Jesus. Scripture: Luke 10:38–42 (KJV), Matthew 11:28–30, Romans 8:28 Themes: hustle vs. holiness, listening prayer, pruning commitments, making room for joy
