Why are we so tired?
There’s a post going around Tumblr that says, in all capital letters, ‘Why am I so tired?’
Hmm. Think with me for a little bit.
On Monday, the first day of the week, what time do we get up? No later than 6. We go to school, we go to college, we go to work, we go run errands, we have things to do.
Don’t bother us.
We’d like to get done with what we need to do, so...

Exodus 33:7-11
“Now Moses used to take a tent and pitch it outside the camp some distance away, calling it the “tent of meeting.” Anyone inquiring of the Lord would go to the tent of meeting outside the camp. And whenever Moses went out to the tent, all the people rose and stood at the entrances to their tents, watching Moses until he entered the tent. As Moses went into the tent, the pillar of cloud...

Dear ----,
First of all, I care deeply about you. Second of all, I think this is for a reason.
I don’t mind staying up talking until we fall asleep. I tell you my secrets because I know I can trust you with them. I know you care. You tell me so, for reasons I’m not sure of.
I will do my best to always be here for you. I’ve got your best interests at heart.
But dear one, there’s...

My Dear Jesus,
(Another journal excerpt)
I don’t want to live like this.
In sin.
Please take me and hold me near you. I know that you’re everything good and strong and that if I need something to rely on, then
surely
you’re the one to go to.
I always need someone. But I don’t want to keep disobeying you at all. I don’t like any of what is keeping me away from you

Dear God,
(An old journal excerpt)
Hey God. I’m sorry. I’ve been such a jerk. There’s not even an excuse for it. Will you please forgive me? And help me remember that I’m saved from all of my sins, because I believe. Because you love me. Because I’m turning away from them.. will you please help me do that? Because I know you see me and you know all about the —— and...
Because this is what we do..
We come home from Bible study, and we get on Tumblr. :]
Thank you soooo much, you guys.
Everything went just fine! I was very nervous, and they wheeled me in on my hospital bed to this creepy operating room that looked JUST like in the movies.. ick.
But they gave me this gas mask, and I coughed a little bit, and the next thing I knew I was waking up.
Granted, I woke up laughing my head off. I was so loopy! Good thing Mom got a video or two ;]
Anyways, I just wanted to say thank...
Thank you so much, and now I'm going to ask...
Could you all pray for me? I’m going tomorrow to have an endoscopy (a camera stuck down my throat), and I’m very very nervous. I get so worked up at the thought of any type of medical procedure being performed on me! Please just pray that God calms my nerves, and that everything goes smoothly.
Thank you guys, I love you! A whole stinkin’ lot.
How wonderful it is
to sit for hours reading old journals and stories -of your own writing- that make you cry, just to realize how far God has brought you today, and how much stronger he’s made you. I’m so very blessed.

A Reminder to Self:
“A woman of God must posses a stable core. She feels emotions at great levels BUT she is not a slave to her own feelings. A woman of God is of sound mind and does not fall apart emotionally, even in the gravest and most severe of circumstances”

I abandoned my old blog and just created this new one,
completely devoting myself to God.
God bless youu. (:

I'd get pink cheeks in public if..
1. I started crying. I know it’s silly, but I just hate crying in public.
2. If I was called out. Whenever I’m publicly criticized, the world has ended.
3. I got mad. Really really mad. Because when I get mad, that makes me cry!
I don’t know why I get embarrased about being emotional. Something about wanting to look like I have it all together. I know that’s wrong.
I...

How to be classy: 1. Don’t cuss. That’s just… instant unclassiness. Ladies can find better ways to express themselves. 2. Wear at least one piece of jewelry; a necklace, a bracelet, earrings. More than one piece of jewelry is okay but don’t wear too much or you’ll just look trashy. Also don’t…

I bet you had no clue that I hated all of the attention that I was getting for being pulled out of school. I hated when I heard that Mr. Porter made my mom cry when he tried to talk her into letting me stay for choir. I hate that everyone asked but no one knew why.
But what I really dislike is that there WAS a reason.
The reason’s hurt so many people. The reason’s caused so many...

I’m going to do this. OF COURSE I’m going to change a few of the questions, but I’m going to do it. Maybe I’ll change my Tumblr link.
What is that thing that no one, not even your partner, your mother or your best friend, knows about you? What would make you feel embarrassed in public? What do you think is your biggest flaw? What have you done about it? What is your...
