It breaks my heart that this person that means so much to me can’t see how much potential their life has. God I pray that you keep him on this earth and that you keep Satan far away from him. Help him to fight through those thoughts about life not being worth living. God I pray that you silence anyone who is telling him that there is no point to life. Show him your marvelous plan for him. Reveal how much potential he has and how much You can achieve through him. He needs You so much Father. Your strength and Your power alone can save him. I pray all of this in Jesus’ precious and holy name. Amen.

Guys…
Don’t leave her wondering where you guys stand. You’re the leaders in the relationship so act like it. A girl should never have to tell you she likes you first, she should never have to initiate the “DTR”. Lead her…don’t lead her on but be the leader in the relationship, the friendship, whatever you desire out of her, be the leader.

things don’t work out. Pray and seek Him even when things are uncomfortable and you feel like you’re failing at every single thing that is put in front of you. God knows when you’ve messed up and when you aren’t feeling well so just talk to Him about it anyways. It’s about being real and in a relationship with God not about being a “perfect” person.
Every now and then, I like to do what I can to help my fellow man out. And while it’s no secret that I’ve had a failed relationship or two (or seven), the truth is that I believe I know how to treat a lady. Through many, many, many trials of error, I’ve taught myself the ways to make a young lady feel special and wanted—at least I hope so. It’s really not very hard if you just put a little thought and effort into it; it can be fairly simple actually.
While I am no expert on the female brain or how such a magnificently confusing mechanism works, I do have a few ideas on how to make that special little lady in your life feel even more special. Yes, it is possible—kinda like when Devon Sawa smiled at Icebox, and she melted right out of her cleats and shoulder pads (Little Giants reference for…the…win!).
So, I’m here to share a few tips with you guys. Follow this list, and I guarantee she’ll be wearing your proverbial letter jacket for the foreseeable future. Quick note: most of these are better suited for when you’re already in the throes of a relationship with a young lady. Otherwise, tailor them to your own needs.
Regardless and forthwith, I present to you, “Cory Copeland’s Guide to Making Her Feel Special”:
Share Yourself with Her
I could literally feel your eyes roll from here…but stick with me. A female likes to feel included in her man’s life. That’s a given. But let’s take it a step further, and not only share the big parts of your life with her, but the small, intimate things that make you the wonderful man that you are. Send her a few links to your favorite songs from the YouTube; invite her over to watch your favorite movie on DVD (“Saving Private Ryan” IS an acceptable choice; anything with Meryl Streep IS NOT); lend her some of your favorite books. Not only are you sharing your favorite things with her—which will make her feel wanted—but you’re also giving her a more in-depth view of who you are as a person. This is a good thing.Smile at Her
Again, this seems like a simple task, but sometimes guys forget to alert their face that they’re happy. Want her to feel like Julie the Cat when that goober-looking goalie from the varsity team started paying her attention (D3 anybody? Anybody?)? Smile when you see her. When she enters a room you’re already in and she catches your eye, smile at her. She’ll smile back, and you’ll make her feel all warm and cuddly on the inside (unless she’s still mad at something you did earlier, in which case you’re on your own). Again, this is a good thing.You Like Her? Tell Her
This seems like an easy enough idea, but it usually isn’t. Usually, once we’ve allowed the female to know we’re interested in her, we feel she should assume the same moving forward. And to us, that makes sense. But the female mind likes to be assured, and done so often. So if you like this sweet little lady, tell her. If you’re sitting there watching a movie or something, just look over at her, smile, and tell her that you do, indeed, still think she is the greatest thing since Wendy Peffercorn. This can only cause good things to happen in your relationship*. *Note: Only do this if you actually like the girl. If you don’t anymore, don’t lead her on. Be a man, and tell the truth.Call Her…on the Phone
Yes, I realize texting is the best thing ever invented, but sometimes a girl likes to hear her man’s voice in her ear (that reads creepier than I intended). Not only will she appreciate you taking the time to call her, but she’ll also know that she means more to you because you’re actually making a tangible effort in the relationship. Just don’t do that whole, “You hang-up. No, YOU hang-up” thing; it’s annoying/disgusting.Send Her Hand-Written Letters through the Mail
This is like the mighty Mecca of romantic gestures. In fact, I tweeted something to this affect last week, and nearly the whole Western hemisphere retweeted it. Why? Because girls like getting mail! Actually…everybody does. And if it’s a hand-written letter crafted by a guy who is genuinely making an effort to woo his lady beyond their initial meeting, it will mean even more. So take a few minutes to write out a thoughtful letter to her. Lick the envelope, put the Elvis commemorative stamp on it, do the whole bit. Then send it to her, and wait. In a couple of days, you will be placed on a whole new pedestal in her life. She will appreciate you making such a grand—yet simple—gesture. I am guaranteeing it right now!These few tips should get you guys started for now. Like I said, it’s really a simple concept: treat her the way you would want to be treated if you were a girl. Wait…that’s a little twisted, even for me. Never mind. Look, just be a genuine gentleman, and remember that a woman’s heart is won within the details of your courtship.

And that moment was the moment history was traumatized by grace.” —Johnnie Moore Campus Pastor At Liberty University (via thecommoncup)
Today in counseling, my counselor asked me to write about beauty after we talked about how hard it is to see the beauty in our life because we see the junk in our lives each and every day. This is what I wrote.
Beauty:
The same God who put the planets in motion, the stars in the sky, and made the sun shine bring here on earth millions of miles away is concerned with me and my trials. The One who reigns supreme and is mightier than one can comprehend is holding me in His hands and catching my tears. The Perfect Balance of all things is in my heart. He is Beautiful and I, created in His image, am beautiful, not because of anything I’ve done, said or have worn but because His glory surrounds me and His works in my life. That’s beautiful.
It’s hard for me to see the beauty that God has made out of all of my mistakes because I see the dirt that I drag around each and every day but God has worked in such a beautiful way. I usually don’t cry but I broke down today when I read this out loud after reading it. I’m beautiful because of Christ. My life with all of the sin, with all of the grace is beautiful because of Christ.
Take a moment and look at how God is working in your life. It’s beautiful. You’re beautiful. Not because of the clothes you wear, not because of the makeup that you put on but because God created you in HIS image and His glory shines through you and all of the situations surrounding your life.
I feel like such a burden today. My parents have a good way of making me feel like a burden. Friends have a good way of making me feel like a burden.
Can’t take it right now. Just need to get off campus and breathe!
FIRST RULE OF TUMBLR…
DON’T TALK ABOUT TUMBLR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it was obama
Dinkelberg…..-.-……
Some very, very, very dear friends of Julia and I are having some financial troubles. Kaylee and Michael are a young married couple in California.
Their car has died on them. It’s been towed for the 4th time in 3 months. And they don’t know what’s wrong with it, but it has a dead battery and can’t be turned on to even identify the problem. Neither one of them are employed and they are having to move out of their apartment and having to pay a $1500 lease-break fee, as well as moving expenses and such.
What I’m asking is this: If you feel led by the Lord to give, could you spare a few bucks for them? It would mean a lot to not only them, but to Julia and I as well. Please do this ONLY if you feel led too. Their PayPal is — KayleeGander@Gmail.com.
Thanks so much for reading this. If you are unable to donate, could you do me a huge favor and re-blog this?

Please re-blog. If you guys don’t have anything to give at least re-blog it so people can say a prayer for them. Prayer works and is very powerful and effective.
God Bless.
Girls need to realize this .
We guys don’t care if you talk to other guys .
We don’t care if you’re friends with other guys .
But when you’re sitting next to us, and someguy walks into the room and you jump up andtackle him,randomeven introducing us, yeah, itwithoutus off .pisses
It doesn’t help if you sit there and talk to him forwithout even acknowledgingten minutes
the fact that we’re still there .
We don’t care if a guy calls OR TEXTS you .
but at 2 in the morning we do get a little concerned .
Nothing is that important at 2am .
Also, when we tell you you’re pretty / beautiful/ gorgeous / cute / stunning,
we freaking mean it .
Don’t tell us we’re.wrong
We’ll stop trying to convince you .
Thething about a girl is confidence .sexiest
Yeah, you can quote me .
Don’t be mad when we hold the door open .
Take Advantage of themoodim in .
Let us pay for you!
don’t ‘feel’bad
We enjoy doing it .
It’s expected .
Smile and say ‘thank you’ .
Kiss us when no one’s.watching
If you kiss us when you know somebody’s looking, we’ll be more impressed .
Youhave to get dressed up for us .don’t
If we’re going out with you in the first place, you don’t have to feel the need to
wear theyou have or put on every kind of makeup you own .shortest skirt
We like you for who you are and.not what you are
Honestly, I think a girl looks more beautiful when she’s just in her pj’s .
or my t-shirt and boxers, not allup .dolled
Don’t take everything we say seriously .
Sarcasm is a beautiful thing. See the beauty in it .
Don’t get angry easily.
Stop using magazines/media as your bible.
Don’t talk about how hotis in front of us .Chris Brown, Brad Pitt, or Jesse McCartney
It’s boring, and wecare. You have girlfriends for that .don’t
Whatever happened to the word ‘handsome’/’beautiful’
i’d be utterly stunned by a girl who greeted me
with ‘Hey handsome!’ instead of
‘Hey baby/ stud/ cutie/ sexy’ or whatever else you can think of .
On the other hand imsayin’ I woulndnt like it ether ;)not
Girls, I cannot stress this enough: if you aren’t being treated right by a guy,
dont wait for him to!!!!!change
Ditch his sorry butt, disgrace to the male population & find someone who will treat you with utter respect .
Someone who will make you smile when you’re at your lowest .
Someone who will care for you even when you make.mistakes
Someone who will love you, no matter how bad you make themfeel.
Someone who will stop what they’re doing just to look you in the eyes and
say ‘i love you’ ..and actually mean it.
Give the nice guys a chance.
Guys like this if you agree.
Girls like this if you think it’s cute.
Every Guy who isn’t a jerk will agree with this,
so we hope that all the girls that read this will like this.
