Let the Lord fill you up. With Him as your guide, loving someone else wholly will be as effortless as receiving it. It doesn't shock me one bit, the words of advice and encouragement that I received today. It doesn't shock me who I received them from, why she said it, or the simple truth [...]

He loved me in my mess; he was not waiting until I cleaned myself up. That truth changed my life, and I’m convinced it can change yours. - Jesus > Religion I have loved the message that Jefferson Bethke shares with the world since his viral video of his spoken word poem, Why I Hate [...]
A Dance With…
The seas are vast, the mountains rise from the ground, the leaves change colors, the warmth soothes our souls, and we are seeking out love. All kinds of love. We all want it, and if you don't I hope someday you will. I'm meant to be relational. I crave interaction with people, especially those who [...]
Asks and Answers…
When I think of amazing people that inspire me I think of people that have a heart for others that some may think are undeserving, people that are optimistic about life even when I would consider it barely surviving, and people that genuinely love from the pits of their souls and give everything they can [...]

Make Me Yours…
I use this analogy of being on the edge of a cliff a lot...it's me (you) in white, smeared with every single thing we have done wrong, and we are on the edge of that cliff looking down into the pit of despair waiting for a miracle. When we turn around it's because we are [...]
