a few of my favorite things

avocado "ice cream"

coffee

are the last two things contradictory? =p

oh well.

wisdom

it's the difference between knowing and doing...

what is right.

in times of persecution

Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.

(Luke 23:34)

who am i?

who am i
to hold back
water from the thirsty,
food from the hungry,
truth from the seeking?

who am i
to keep silent,
to still my tongue
from proclaiming
that we have hope?

who am i
to not share good news
when it can bring back the lost,
and cause the angels in heaven to rejoice?

who am i
to not overflow with words
of thanksgiving and praise
for His mercy and grace?

you can have all this world...

if i were rich

i would buy up all the time in the world
bask in the sunshine
walk in the rain
eat chocolates
stare into nothingness
hug my pillow
hide under the covers
and sleep

me full

Let me, O let me bathe my soul in colors; let me swallow the sunset and drink the rainbow.

~Kahlil Gibran

someone's description of me

loneliness,
fear,
confusion,
doubts,
panic.

that's what happens when you feel lost. you don't know what to do, where to go, or who to run to.

so you pray.

then you can breathe and slowly get used to the things that surround you.

because where you are is where He placed you. and everything in your life testifies of His faithfulness.

and you watch as He breathes life into the decaying things and turns them into something beautiful.

the place between

you know the place between you know you're asleep and awake? the time when you can still remember what you were dreaming? that's where i will always love you.
