“WORRY implies that we don’t quite trust that God is big enough, powerful...”
– Francis Chan, “Crazy Love”
Don’t get me wrong. This is something that completely hit me like an oncoming train. I do this a lot myself.
Encouragement for tonight or tomorrow. Stressed? Let it go. I know it’s hard. But let Jesus take it for you. Surely He, who hung on the...
Something is different about Tumblr.

I have a spreadsheet and everything.
I feel so organized.
And efficient.
Then I looked at the time…… Haha, oh man.
Inspire daily, and be inspired.
The world really can be a wonderful place if both of us step out of our comfort zones and begin living to make a difference in someone else’s life instead of ours.

My heart breaks for these people. →
While we were all busy talking about the latest memes, arguing with each other about petty little things, freaking out about college, or struggling to finish homework before it’s due… this happened.
Somewhere this morning, at 7.40 am in Ohio, a sophomore shot at his fellow students. We were still sleeping. While we were all caught up in our own little worlds today, a family was...
I can't take it anymore
Somebody let it be March 23 so we can watch the Hunger Games movie please. D:

I'm laughing way too hard right now.
On the Valley Christian Meme page, my old music teacher commented and asked, “What’s a meme?”
Oh Hook. I miss you and your innocent questions. :(
drakeblonde replied to your post: I just spent like 15 seconds pressing the screw…
I just sat here staring out the window…until I realized the blinds were closed.
I would do that too. In fact, I’m pretty sure I do that without being tired. :D

I just spent like 15 seconds pressing the screw instead of the elevator button. Clearly I am too exhausted to function

Stargazing was beautiful :) Genesis 1:17-18 “God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.”
doeshopelive asked: I WATCHED GLEE. JGKLDSGJKLDSJGKLSJHKL. so many public service announcements in one episode O_O. What are stable emotions right now?!?!?!
The Hunger Games....
Sdfvghbjnmksi. So good. I can’t believe I’ve never read it till now. Words cannot describe my emotions.
First Glee, now this. I worry for my emotional stability- what’s left of it at least.

My thoughts post-Glee episode:
Spoiler warnings below.
WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT EVEN. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. WHAT. NO. YOU CANNOT DO THIS TO ME.
YOU EVIL, EVIL, EVIL PEOPLE.
WHAT, WHAT, WHAT, WHAT.

(lunges for phone)
TEXT HANNAH!
My emotions cannot be contained. I am all over the place right now. That was by far the best episode I have seen, and that’s saying something considering that I...

It’s such a good song, but it’s so incredibly sad.
…And yes, it may be playing on repeat on my Itunes. No regrets. At least, not many regrets.

Is what you’re about to say True, Helpful, Inspiring, Neccesary or Kind?
If it is - go ahead!
But if it isn’t, it’s not worth saying!
People don’t deserve to be hurt by your words, so please make a concious effort - it’s amazing how little we appreciate the impact our words have on our peers.
So try this little technique - it’s worth a thought :)

Oh! I should scream it to the world:
My absolute best friend from bowling got a full bowling scholarship to University of Memphis!
She deserves it, she’s worked incredibly hard for this, what with all the practices and tournaments and blood sweat and tears. If anyone deserves it, it’s her. I’m so incredibly happy for her, and so incredibly proud. :)
Congrats Sam! You deserve every ounce of this. EVERY SINGLE...

Two-Way Streets
As I was lying in bed today, I was forcefully reminded of the time I had left with my friends. Think about it- in less than a month, I will be receiving college letters telling me where I’ll be accepted to, and a month after that I know where I’ll be going.
I am going to sound like such a sap for saying this, but I know that one of the groups that I’m going to miss the most...

In our Philosophy lesson today...
abeautifulembrace:
I was asked “Why do you believe in God?”.
Now I’m not ashamed to answer that question, but given the nature of the majority (but not all) of my classmates - I knew whatever I said would go on deaf ears - so I gave them the bare minimum:
“I believe in God because it gives my life a purpose, it gives me morals and it gives me comfort.”
Truthfully, my relationship with God is...
God is so good

God is so good
He’s so good to me
doeshopelive replied to your post: Oh Grant Gustin…
GPOY. I think I’m starting to develop an unhealthy obsession for Grant.
All of us are, Joyce. All of us are.
Oh Grant Gustin...
I wish you weren’t so nice in real life… it would make disliking your character on Glee a lot easier!
FRED commercial on youtube
FRED: WAIT! Don’t hit the skip button!
Me: Ooops! (hits the skip button)
Respect for being a Youtube icon and all… but his voice isn’t one of my favorite voices to listen to.

One more thing before I leave.
I love all of you.
I know some days it doesn’t seem like it, but I really do. I care deeply about all of you. And if you ever need to talk, rant, chat, explain, cry, laugh, celebrate- you can come to me. My ask box is always open- always has been, and for those of you who have my number, there’s that too.
However, as much as I can love you guys, remember that there is a greater love...

Disclaimer: I do not mean to mean for the following to sound judgmental.
But maybe when we are angry, or frustrated, our first move should not be to post it on the Internet.
While we do have our own personal space to talk about our thoughts, or our hopes, dreams, and ambitions, what goes on the Internet stays on the Internet. I know this. I have regrets of my own posted all over the place, and...

Let Your Nets Down
No, I promise this isn’t a cheesy post about letting your hair (nets) down.
One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret,the people were crowding around him and listening to the word of God. He saw at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their nets. He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a...

I miss school.
Like, legitimately. Because I was out sick for two days, I haven’t seen any of my best friends.
Also, I can’t stop thinking about the work I missed and the lessons I have to catch up on.
I’m a workaholic. And I’m only eighteen..

Mom: Think about it this way, you started break early.
Me: Mom, I'm lying in bed with a coughing fit and not feeling well... This is not a break.
the bottle
thefirstfaintline:
on the banks of the river, the narrow, winding river that cuts through the channel and twines through the quiet wetlands of the morning, there lies a bottle.
nothing fancy, just a plain glass bottle with a makeshift cork made out of paper stuffed into the hole, twisted together and soaked by the intimate embrace of saltwater that seeps into the bottle, the long weary...
