Pride, it hurts to let you go, to release you of my grasp. But once my fingers are no longer firmly holding on to all that is not mine, I realize that I am the one released.

I really thank the Lord for His perfect love. Even in my weakness, even in my sin, He thinks that I am beautiful and holy and pure and lovely. I am desired by Him. So often I look to be desired in the wrong ways. I want to be wanted, I want to be loved, I want to be missed. I realize that I have underlying insecurities… Lately, it has been on my heart that I need to seek my identity in Him....

what my eyes have seen
This is going to be sort of choppy and quick, but I just have to write down this encounter I had. Tonight was a mixture of ups and downs. Revelation. Keeping my mouth shut. Loving and giving appreciation. Focusing on the good.
I finally had the honor of meeting Dave, an older man who goes to the church. He’s been going for a suuuuper long time, and he knew a lot of the young people at the...

Anonymous asked: I think you are a gorgeous young woman. You have the heart of a lion and a lamb; your soul is the perfect coexistence of righteous ferocity and boldness, and the undignified likeness of a child, the simple serenity of knowing true love. Your heart radiates beyond your chest, you carry a beacon of what it means to be genuine. I feel like I barely know you, but I know everything about you: how lucky...

I want to be amazing for Jesus.
For some reason, I want to be that which He already sees me as. And, I know this. I sometimes struggle with comparing myself to other Christians and feeling spiritually immature. Even as I write this, I feel immature, because I am not relishing in the fact that I have been set free from these false feelings by the One and Only. But, I guess I will just let myself write; honestly. Sometimes I...

The melody of You plays behind every circumstance,...
Listening to worship, I started to peel back the layers of the music. I could hear the vocals, the lead guitar, the beat of the drums. Then, I listened more carefully for the back up vocals, the chimes. Even more faint, the faithful and constant flow of the bass. It occurred to me in that moment that in every situation, God’s melody can be found, loyally and consistently. When temptation is...
