  • "If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world."
  • Beauty is not democratic; she reveals herself more to the few than to the many…
  • The true enjoyments must be spontaneous and compulsive and look to no remoter end.
  • We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade, the presence of God.
  • "'Safe?' said Mr. Beaver...'Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. but he's good. He's the King, I tell you.'"
  • "Every story of conversion is the story of a blessed defeat."
  • Sleeping on a dragon's hoard with greedy, dragonish thoughts in his heart, he had become a dragon himself."
  • "Prostitutes are in no danger of finding their present life so satisfactory that they cannot turn to God: the proud, the avaricious, the self-righteous, are in that danger."
  • If naturalism were true then all thoughts whatever would be wholly the result of irrational causes. It cuts its own throat

and I'm learning not to worry. 




because there is no need. 



and I'm learning how to walk on, 

trusting Him to go before me, 
to go beside me, 
to go surrounding me. 



and its something beautiful. 



'But we must risk-

 because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing'



you be caught, you've got to fall.

what if everything does happen for a reason? 
theres a couple things going on in my life right now that's really testing my faith in whether or not that's true.
whats the purpose in this? 
how can God be glorified in this?


and then i think about what God has already done,
and how beyond myself He is. 
and i feel small, 
like i'm looking up at the starry night 
remembering that the sun is just another average star.
and that the earth is just one of thousands of planets out there
and that there's 9 billion people on the earth, 
as numerous as the stars in the heavens.
and suddenly, my problems don't seem so 
GINORMOUS 
anymore,
instead they feel small
and i feel safe 
knowing that i'm small
because God is bigger than the heavens
God is beyond my comprehension
and i've decided i can rest in that

 thats one reason i'm a space junkie. 
because it makes me feel small.
and that;s the reason why i love thunderstorms
it's something so beyond my control, 
so beyond myself


SO BEYOND MYSELF. 
 


<starry night- chris august>



ohoh, we need each other. 
Rabbi, you're teaching me. 
please let me to love as You have first loved us. 
YOU HAVE FIRST LOVED US.
you laid down your life for your brothers. 
Jesus, let how i love reflect Your love for us, 
glorify Yourself, Lord God ALMIGHTY. 

i need people in my life to challenge me. 
keep me accountable. 
i'm learning that its such a blessing. 
really, it is SUCH a blessing. 
<psalm 141:5> it is an oil upon my head.
so if there's the odd chance that theres someone out there reading my blog, 
if you feel that God is leading you to say something, 
say it

we need each other. 


                      PROVERBS 18:1,2
Whoever (A)isolates himself seeks his own desire;
    he breaks out against all sound judgment.
A fool takes no pleasure in understanding,
    but only (B)in expressing his opinion.



soo convicting. 

life at the present

a season of following through. 

what's my motive? motive 1, motive 2
Jesus be my first love
you are not your past, those chains are gone. 
what you do to others, you are also doing to Me. 
made to crave
what's beauty?
