God is a God of consistency. Wow…sometimes I forget about that aspect because I’m so used to the world. The world is very inconsistent. People all around me are very inconsistent. I am super inconsistent so inconsistency just seemed “normal” and I never think of God as consistent. He is consistently faithful. He is consistently sovereign. He is consistently loving. He is...

Just like David, I’m facing a giant. Just like Jonah, I’m tempted to run. Just like Moses, I’m finding it hard to believe I’m Your chosen one. Just like Daniel in the den of the lion. Well all I can do now is pray, that You fill me up with Your holy power, And give me the courage to say I’m gonna be strong. I’m gonna be brave, I’m gonna stand proud in the illuminating light of...

“Small” lies lead to big trust issues. Remember that the next time you think that “fibblet” or “little white lie” wont effect someone. It causes more damage than it’s worth.

That’s my King!! <3
They refused to obey,
And they were not mindful of Your wonders
That You did among them.
But they hardened their necks,
And in their rebellion
They appointed a leader
To return to their bondage.
But You are God,
Ready to pardon,
Gracious and merciful,
Slow to anger,
Abundant in kindness,
And did not forsake them. [Neh9.17.NKJV]
I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
That I would see the goodness of the Lord
In the land of the living. Wait on the Lord;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the Lord! [Ps27.13.NKJV]

Conviction…story of my life lately. It’s been crazy. So last night a friend showed me a verse and automatically (in my human knowledge) I felt as if I knew what he wanted me to get out of that verse but another part of me wanted to dig deep into the verse and look at the original Greek and find out the true meaning of the verse (I was writing a commentary on the book of Jude when he...

I hate when I have to hold in the urge to blog to do homework. I had this stirring in my heart and I really wanna get to blogging and I keep starting but then I realize that this homework assignment determines whether I pass or fail since it’s worth 30% of my grade and is the only real assignment that we’ve had. Oh how I hate papers! Especially papers where the teacher tells you that...

The lovely snooze option for our alarm clocks… The one that gives us a temporary satisfaction, knowing that it enables us to sleep for 10 more minutes. But it’s also an option that could either make us late for something, or just simply make us feel even more lazy than we already are.
It’s time…

I’ve been thinking about my uncle today. I was thinking about the verse that was on his memorial card. 2 Timothy 4:6-8:
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous...

You are our Father;

Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain. You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. http://bible.us/Jas5.7.NKJV

So funny story…kinda.
I thought I lost my Ipod in convocation…over 10,000 students in one place. I thought it was a goner. :(
So I walked around without it, drove home (3 hours) without it. Tried to live life without it. Then I realized how much I truly relied on this stupid piece of technology to get me through the day. It got me through awkward situations, through long walks...

Studying for a Greek quiz that I have tomorrow on information that she did not teach us. It doesn’t help that this book is confusing.

What’s shocking about this picture isn’t how much this man is bleeding and bruised, but that this is NOTHING compared to how much more the real Son of God suffered.

That miracles are not always big.
If you spend all your time looking for big miracles, you’re likely to miss a lot of the little ones; finding your keys when you need them, getting the right medicine for an illness, arriving home safely. God is giving you little miracles all the time. The more you look for them, the more you will see.

In my devotion today I was really challenged. The title today was “Visualize the Moon”. It came from Genesis 13 when Abram and Lot separated and God told Abram to look to the north, south, east, and west, because God was going to give Him all of that land and that He would allow Abram to have many descendants. God wants us to visualize all that He has in store for us. The devotion went...

I should not be watching Say Yes to the Dress, and Bringing Home Baby. lol. It’s only making me want a family even more! And Boy Meets World makes me want a love like Cory and Topanga! Gahhh!
I think every Christian should read the book UnChristian. Such an amazing eye opener. LOVE it so far.
My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him; and also, O king, I have done no wrong before you.” Now the king was exceedingly glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no injury whatever was found on him, because he believed in his God....
I had a pretty bad night…well kinda. No one knows that it’s been a bad day except for me and God. I’ve gotten too good at putting on a happy face. I know all too well the things to say and do to make people think that I’m ok but I’m freaking out on the inside. The grieving process is so hard especially with so many things surrounding me at the moment. I feel like I...

We’re sitting in this incredibly elaborate lounge before we enter the auditorium (I can’t even call it a santuary) and I can’t help but want to throw up from all this churchianity. Why do we spend millions of dollars to build castles when we should be out building a kingdom?

With all of this heartbreak surrounding me, I felt God told me tonight that it’s time to heal, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I need to heal from these wounds but I’m scared. But God is so sovereign and mighty I know that I can trust Him. So let’s start this heart wrenching process of healing from heartache. The process will probably suck but the end result will be...

He would never feel disgusted knowing that one of His children are in tears. He wouldn’t disown me just because I didn’t deal with the situation “like a man.” He knows that I would fail, and He always continues to encourage me to get back up on my feet. God is the best parent around.

Having a rough day…just can’t seem to shake it. Being home is bittersweet. It’s good to be away from school but its hard to be home. I wish it wasn’t so hard to be home. But I guess that’s what I get for not dealing with things at school, it hits me 10x harder when I’m home. I thank God that I have hope in Him. I praise Him because He suffered something so much...
