three years ago, every single day I was having conversations with girls who I had never met. Conversations on the phone about Father, about the upcoming summer, about what was to take place, about those who were seeking and longing to know more, but didn't know how or where to begin... about Germany.. and about praying to see FATHER in the "fatherland." I...
Seen glory results in faith.It's a thought I've been mulling over, the past few hours. See, the thing is this: I have never seen Jesus. Literally, I suppose not. But I've seen him, I've seen Christ, I've seen his glory, and constantly Father reveals himself, his son, which once seen and felt and heard with my self, with my senses, I draw near...
I don't know how to drive. I am 22 years old and I don't know how to drive, and I need to learn, but there is something in me that doesn't want to, but something in me that becomes so angry when I realise how much of a fool I feel when I can't do things on my own, when other people my...
I hung out with the Moores at the nursing home last night. As every time, Father taught me in ways i never even expected.So much of me wants to go into detail, but I feel the beauty isn't in the description of the place, or the events, yet the simplicity of it all, exclaims the greatness and the beauty of our God.Lately, I...
This morning has been full of Germany memories. And i kind of miss it. (of course)I had just finished crying, and sara took my photo at Balzac. But even though I had just cried, this is one of my favorite memories, because sara was there for me and made me laugh so hard, while crying so hard... and for some reason i love...
I want to know Christ more. I want to experience him more. In the past weeks my life has been turned upside down in many good ways. I find myself... as who I used to be: excited. Excited about the unexpected-ness of Father... about now, about the future. About HIM. I'm excited about Christ, and as Colby Ivey always would say while in...
I feel horribly sick. I'm not exactly sure why, although I think it has to do with a lack of rest, not eating well, and stress from exams and my thoughts/worries.My mind keeps tracing back to a year ago, and how I spent the holidays. The year in Germany feels like a dream. I don't talk about it much, and when I do...
Alison brought up a good point the other day. A football player jumps at any chance to play football. He may play for a certain team, but if someone says hey let's go play out in the yard, he is not going to say, no way man i can only play with my team. To some extent the same is of our faith......
thoughts lara thinks while sitting in classthought number one:I love to pray. I don't do it often enough, but I love to pray. I have seen and felt and been a witness to the power of prayer, and I love being drawn to pray. So, I say that to say this... when it comes to reading the word, my brain and mind has...
I have new passions. Some trivial, some less so.As we all know, and as is obvious, since you are reading my BLOG (short for web-log) I love writing. This has always been obvious. I have tons and tons of journals, I always write. I have different 'genres' - the occasional poetry, when that 'girl' who has no name, but is referred to by...
i read this today at radiant magazine... it was in an email. I guess they aren't always corny articlesThe writer of Hebrews tells us that in order for Jesus to help us, and in order for Him to be a high priest who is merciful and faithful, He had to be like us in every respect. Jesus was enveloped by the same environment...
