It sucks always being the footnote in someone...
1. Worshiping God is not about you; it’s about Him. It sounds like common sense, but so many of us have it all wrong. We find it easier to praise Him when things seem to be going extremely right, and we find it easier to cry out to Him when things seem to be going extremely wrong. When right and wrong aren’t at the extreme end of the spectrum, we tend to put God on a shelf until the...

Lead me to Your heart
1. Maybe my life hasn’t been so chaotic, it’s just the world that is and the only real trap is getting attached to any of it.
2. Take chances, take a lot of them. Because honestly, no matter where you end up with and with whom, it always ends up just the way it should be. Your mistakes make you who you are. You learn and grow with each choice you make. Everything is worth...

I Made Her Because I Love Her
I made her…She is different, She is unique,
With love I formed in her mother’s womb, I fashioned her with great joy.
I remember, with great pleasure, the day I created her.
(Psalm 139:13-16)
I love her smile, I love her ways,
I love to hear her laugh,
And the silly things she says and does.
She brings Me great pleasure. This is how I made her.
(Psalm 139:17)
I made her pretty...

1. I think people that live for God ought to really live. I think every minute you ought to be alive. I think you ought to stop and smell the roses. Maybe look for a four leaf clover. I think you ought to get up in the morning and look at the last fading stars and say “Thank you God, You’re such a God of beauty.”
2. Sometimes, devine revelation simply means adjusting...

1. Coincidence is God’s way of remaining anonymous.
2. Did you know that when someone appears in your dreams, it’s because that person misses you. It’s a psychological fact.
3. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. 1 Corinthians 13:7-8

what i want more than anything out of a man is somebody who will stand by my side as we fight the good fight of faith together. i want somebody to carry His name all over the world with me. i want people to see Christ in our relationship before they see anything else.

I am blessed. Everything happens for a reason.
1. I am human & I need to be loved, just like everybody else does.
2. There comes a point in your life, when you’re officially an adult. Suddenly, people expect you to be responsible, serious, a grown up. We get taller, we get older. But do we ever grow up? No matter how much we grow taller, grow older, we are forever stumbling…forever wondering,...
Send me away with the words of a love song
1. Never compare your love story with those in the movies, because they are written by scriptwriters. Yours is written by God.
2. Love me without fear. Trust me without wondering. Love me without restrictions. Want me without demand.
3. A relationship with God is the most important relationship you can have.
4. Among other things, you’ll find that you’re...

1. Everyone makes mistakes, and then you learn from them. If you ever happen to make the same mistake twice, the second time isn’t a mistake. It’s a choice.
2. The women who don’t seek attention are usually the women you need to be giving your attention to.
3. Not everyone or everything is worth fighting for. Sometimes what seems promising is nothing...
It'll only bring us closer to the love we wanna...
1. I can tell you a lot about her. She’s someone with a huge heart. She will bend over backwards and fold herself in half helping out someone if she can do anything. Her loyalty to the ones that mean something to her is unheard of nowadays. She smiles like she’s never been hurt, and if you didn’t know her, you wouldn’t ever imagine her to ever be hurt. But it happens, a lot...
Scared of love, but scared of life alone.
1. Faith is not simply a patience that passively suffers until the storm is past. Rather, it is a spirit that bears things- with resignations, yes, but above all, with blazing, serene hope.
2. You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope that someday you’ll join us. And the world will live as one.
3. This life is what you make...
Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit...
1. I am the First and the Last- God
2. The greatest thing you can be proud of is being able to stand from a fall and becoming a better person.
3. I don’t believe we have to be better than everybody else. I believe we have to be better than we ever thought we could be.
4. True love is rare, and it’s the only thing that gives life real meaning

...and I realize just how beautiful You are
1. Everything you want is out there, waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.
2. It seems that when dreams come true, they never turn out the same way you dream them. They twist and turn and disappoint, leaving you wanting so much more. I don’t know which is to blame: the dream itself, or the reality that dissolves the...
Jesus, take it from my hands, cause I can't do it...
1. That’s what happens in a nightmare. You’re somewhere in the middle of friends and then you suddenly look at their faces and they’re not your friends any longer- they’re different people- just pretending. Perhaps, you can’t trust anybody- perhaps, everybody’s a stranger.
2. Like everyone and trust no one.
3. Tell your heart that the...

One.
It’s been said that we just don’t recognize the significant moments of our lives while they are happening. We grow complacent with ideas, or things, or people and we take them for granted and it’s usually not until that thing is about to be taken away from you that you’ve realized how wrong you’ve been that you realized how much you need it, how much you love it.
...
I'm doing what I do best: fighting for what I...
1. You’re going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it’s always their actions you should judge them by. It’s actions, not words, that matter.
2. I just need a guy who will hold his ground and tell me to stop running from everything I’m afraid of. Who’s not afraid to scream at me until...
I want you to want me.
{One.}
And in the end, you either focus on what separates you or holds you together.
{Two.}
I am in love with the idea of being in love. I love the feeling you get when you’re around someone you have feelings for, I love how happy it makes me, I love being able to have someone to talk to at all times, having someone make you smile and laugh. I’m scared of the idea of...
I knew I knew I wouldn't forget you(:
1. Any pain you are going through right now..it will end. Take a deep breath. Think of that one bright, happy thing in your life and smile. Live another day. It’s worth it.
2. The world, even the smallest parts of it, is filled with things you don’t know.
3. No one ever gets tired of loving. But everyone gets tired of waiting, assuming, hearing promises,...
Would you just lay with me and forget the world?
1. I’m starting to realize that sometimes you have to alter your dreams and make new ones. Maybe sometimes things that we want, need, or dream have to happen in ways differently than we want it to. Maybe we’re forced to realize that because we need to remember that God has a different plan for us than we have for ourselves. Maybe there’s something or someone that’s...

I want the world to see you be with me.
[one.]
Do me a favor and don’t sugarcoat anything. I want to hear your truth, no matter how raw and blunt it is. I want to hear your thoughts, uncensored and unedited.

Everybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people in the world, I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside, inside them, they’ve got unimaginable,...

I’ve been making a list of the things they don’t teach you at school. They don’t teach you how to love somebody. They don’t teach you how to be famous. They don’t teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don’t teach you how to walk away from someone you don’t love any longer. They don’t teach you how to know what’s going on in...
45 lessons of life
1. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good. 2. When in doubt, just take the next small step. 3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone… 4. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and family will. Stay in touch. 5. Pay off your credit cards every month. 6. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagree. 7. Cry with someone. It’s more healing than crying...
Oh, don't you ever grow up
1. Just remember one thing: God is with you. He will make everything beautiful at the right place, at the right time.”
2. And if you come from under that water then there’s fresh air. Just breathe, baby, God’s got a blessing to spare. Yes, I know the process has so much stress, but it’s the progress that feels the best…So try, they can’t steal your pride, it’s inside. Then find it and...

“I don’t think you can explain how Christian faith works. It is a mystery. And I...”
– Donald Miller, Blue Like Jazz (via hannah-brown)
Who are you when I'm not looking?
1. Ask most people what they want out of life, and the answer is simple: to be happy. Maybe it’s this expectation though, the wanting to be happy, that keeps us from ever getting there. Maybe the more we try and will ourselves to states of bliss, the more confused we get, to the point where we don’t recognize ourselves. Instead, we keep smiling, trying like hell to be the happy people...
just like a magnet, you pull me in
1. Love with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose withno regret. Appreciate your friends. Continue to learn. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
2. Everyone will eventually hurt you. Your job is to take care of yourself and not be surprised.
3. I believe good things happen everyday. I believe good things happen even when...
Larger Than Life
{One.}
Never say goodbye, because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting.
{Two.}
No one is in charge of your happiness but you; therefore, you can change any part of yourself or your life.
{Three.} All of our young lives, we search for someone to love, we choose partners, change partners. We dance to the song of heartbreak and hope all the while...

Too blessed to be stressed
1. Disappointments are just God’s way of saying: “I’ve got something better.” Be patient, live life, and have faith
2. “Well, yes, ma’am, I do… I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up morning and not knowing what’s going to happen, or who I’m...
You give me life with those funny faces
1. When you’re young, it’s easy to feel trapped. It’s easy to feel like you’re not understood. That’s why we always say that you don’t understand.
2. A guy out there was meant to be the love of your life, your best friend, your soul mate, the one you can tell your dreams to. He’ll brush the hair out of your eyes. Send you flowers when you...

1. You continue to get your heart broken because you are holding the pen of your life and trying to write your own story. I am the Author of true love. I am the Creator of Romance. I know your heart’s every desire. I want to script a beautiful take just for you, but first you must give the pen to Me. You must let Me become the center of your existence. You must let Me have total control of...

1. You know why you can’t be serious with me? Because being serious with me would be admitting to yourself, me and everyone else that you actually really do like me as more than a friend.

1. Let your light shine. Be a source of strength and courage. Share your wisdom. Radiate love.
2. Whenever something happens that’s not a part of your plan, you pretend that it doesn’t exist. You act like you’re in this movie about your perfect life, and then I have to remind you that the only one watching that movie is you.
3. I’m not a stop...
At the end of today, all you have are memories
{one.}
I’ll screw up. I’ll push you away if we’re getting too close. I won’t trust you until you’ve proven yourself. I get hurt easily and take a lot of things personally. But I’ll love you with everything I have, and if that isn’t enough, then I’m not enough.

Do you ever wonder if we make the moments in our...
1. Bad things are always going to happen in life. People will hurt you, but you can’t use that as an excuse to fail or to hurt someone back. You’ll only end up hurting yourself.
2. Forgiveness is never easy. Bitterness is easy. Hatred is easy. But forgiveness, that’s a tough one. Sometimes, people say things they don’t mean or do things they can’t take back....
I guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all
1. You’re not a kid anymore. You have the right to choose your own life. You can start again. If you want a cat, all you have to do is choose a life in which you can have a cat. It’s your right.
2. Life is a series of collisions with the future; it’s not the sum of what we have been, but what we yearn to be.
3. ‘Forgive and forget,’ that’s what they say....

All I want for Christmas is YOU.
1. If you’re feeling frightened about what comes next…don’t. Embrace the uncertainty. Allow it to lead you places. Be brave as it challenges you to exercise both your heart and your mind as you create your own path towards happiness. Don’t waste time with regret. Spin wildly into your next action. Enjoy the present- each moment as it comes- because you’ll never get...
Maybe it's time to let go of yesterday, and have a...
1. All of us have moments in our lives where we became alive for the first time, and when we go back to those moments and think, “this is when I became myself.”
2. Imagine a future moment in your life where all your dreams come true. It’s the greatest moment of your life, and you get to experience it with one person. Who’s standing next...

1. Whatever you do in life will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it because you can’t know. You can’t ever really know the meaning of your life. And you don’t need to. Just know that your life has a meaning…every life has a meaning, whether it lasts one hundred years or one hundred seconds. Every life, every death, changes the world in its own way....
Little imperfections make you beautiful
Well, I’m just taking a break from the craziness of school. It’s so ridiculously hard; it’s insane and hard to keep up. Forget Thanksgiving break (we get a lousy TWO DAY break). I want Christmas Break to get here so bad so I can just relax and not stress out about relaxing. Anyway, here goes:

So, super long post, but I think you’ll enjoy it! In a way, I’m just doing this post to get my mind off of college football. It’s like it was “beat the highest ranked team today.” At least Oklahoma got killed and Mizzou beat them! <——This made my day! At least there’s hope for the Spurs and the Rangers this year! We need some championships in...

Wow, so many things have happened since school has started! I don’t even think I’ve updated since school has started! So many wonderful things have happened and I couldn’t be more blessed! Anyways, here’s your update for today! It’ll probably be my last post for awhile—until Thanksgiving break. I’m so ridiculously busy with school & work!

It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you’ve known forever don’t see things the way you do. And so, you keep the memories, but you find yourself moving on.

Bittersweet Memories
Wow, I know this post is really weak, but they’re QUOTES! Enjoy! (:
One.
I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, people are jerks. I’ve learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion- not proof- to destroy it. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t compare yourselves to others; they’re more screwed up than you think. I’ve...
Now, I know it's up to me somehow.
1. Take chances, take lots of them. Because honestly, no matter where you end up and with whom, it always ends up just the way it should be. You mistakes make you who you are. You learn and grow with each choice you make. Everything is worth it. Say how you feel, always. Be you, and be okay with it.
2. Love isn’t always going to be perfect. It’s not a fairytale, or...
Ending Unplanned
Hey,
I know all of my post titles lately have come from Natasha Bedingfield songs. haha. I promise, next time, it won’t happen. I just ended my last day at work today, so I felt the need for the title, and another reason for the title is that summer is ending so soon! GAH. Not ready to get back to school! :( Anyways, I abide by my promises, so here are your quotes!
