we all need to be a little more like kids.
we all need to be a little immature at times.

there’s a big difference between being immature and just knowing how to have fun.

i think i have the latter perfected.

“love grows by giving.  the love we give away is the only love we keep.  the only way to retain love is to give it away.”

awestruck, i fell to my knees.

you placed the stars in the sky and you know them by name;
you are amazing, God.

i love my LORD

for the first time tonight, God took my breath away.  i didn’t know whether to rejoice over this first time experience or weep because it took me so long to experience it.

nevertheless, i was reminded tonight of how beautiful our God is, how powerful he is, and how much he has blessed me.

i forgot how complexly simple everything is.  thank the LORD i finally remembered.

we all need somebody to lean on.

i’m not as strong as everyone thinks.

God shared my testimony last night through me.  i didn’t know what i was saying, i didn’t know how i remembered everything, i didn’t know how i lost my train of thought 5 times and still got right back on track.  but what i do know is that God is good all the time, and that’s no joke.

on the to-do list for my life:
be more spiritually child-like.

hooooooo there’s something wrong with me.

so for me, this is beautiful
a brand new thought and a brand new world

can i stay here forever?  here with You?

i made an airplane out of stone

i always did like staying at home.

remember when?

remember back when we were best friends?
remember when we trusted each other?
remember when we told each other everything?
remember how upset you were when i told you we needed to back off?
remember when you told me you would stop ignoring me?

i don’t love you anymore.
but i miss you.

and the fact that you want nothing to do with me now
makes me wonder if you ever cared about me in the first place.

remember all that?
i sure do.
