Guess who got a blog...

Thats right, I did. I found that I'd been reading so many other blogs and I thought, "hmm. maybe I'll just start one". So I did. Part of me is skeptical as to whether or not anyone will read this but I'll just leave that up to God. I'm not really sure what this will consist of besides my thoughts and what God's been putting on my heart, and perhaps a few pics but it is my hope that I will actually be faithful in blogging my little heart out...at least until school starts, that is.

I guess I'll just share a song that the Lord has so graciously blessed me with. Has anyone heard of a song called Desert Song by Hillsong? It's such a great exhortation to us as God's children to choose to praise Him no matter what our circumstances are because HE is God, and not only that, but He is a good God. He can see what our earthly eyes can't always see and like Romans 8:28 says, He is working all things together for our good. Jill's testimony is so moving and I hope that you are blessed by it.


All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship

Lord let that be my prayer no matter what season I'm in :)

there's a hope that never fails.

hmm, well after an eternity of inactivity, I AM BACK! These past few weeks have been somewhat crazy, you know, with finals and studying for finals. oh the woes of being a college student. But, Alas! Spring is here and its sunny , which according to the weather forecast is not going to be the case starting tomorrow and lasting a long time. So, carpe diem, yes? I have been thinking a lot about heaven lately and just reflecting on how my view of heaven has changed so much over the last few years. I used to not be super excited about heaven simply because it sounded kind of boring. I mean, eternity is long time, right? I remember thinking about the return of Christ with the mindset of "it would be cool if Jesus came back BUT I want to get married first" or "I want to have kids first." I think that these thoughts stemmed from an ignorance or perhaps a lack of knowledge of what heaven would be like. Although it is impossible for one to fully describe what heaven is like w

Beautiful Letdown.

It was a beautiful let down When I crashed and burned When I found myself alone, unknown and hurt It was a beautiful let down The day I knew That all the riches this world had to offer me Would never do. In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubt I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in, Until I found out I don't belong here . (Beautiful Letdown, Switchfoot) Sometimes, I am so easily distracted. Have you ever noticed that it's when you are doing something important, like homework, chores, QUIET TIME WITH THE LORD, that all of a sudden your mind gets filled with all these "super important" (not really, though) things that just skip a million levels on the priority ladder? Since when was checking the weather more important than seeking the face of God early in the morning? The answer is never; it's never more important. I just get distracted from what is important. This past weekend, I heard something incredibly profound. A pastor said that as we grow in fa
