Creativity

"Someone once said, “Use what is in your hand today to do God’s will and watch him do miracles” God wants to take something seemingly ordinary and redeem it, expand it, multiply it! It brings a fresh wind of faith to the word stewardship. In stewarding what we have, we need faith to see things how God sees them! When we do this, old bread becomes croutons, pallets become a coffee table and a broken man is filled with Life."

"Seduction requires technique, if you know how to have a romance then its not a romance, but a seduction-- its not about management or control" - Matt Rawlins

Raw. Organic. REAL. Pure. Natural

"We follow Jesus in a romance—we fail, we learn, we strive, we find freedom, and he leads us deeper into love and we forget about a destination."

The pain of others will always be incomprehensible; not in comparison to your own, but simply because it is not your own. Lay aside judgment.

As graduation from college draws near, I am constantly exploring all 234,526,723 options that I could possibly finally pursue afterward. I have heard a tiny whisper accompanying me that says to not get lost in the future at the cost of neglecting the present. I know its true... but I've just kept on anyway.

Today however, for whatever reason, I was trying to figure out what year it is. After thinking for a few moments, I was almost positive it was 2015. I consulted Google only to find out that it is in fact still 2014. In that moment, I realized that I really do need to slow my roll and give more care to the precious, fleeting here&now. I'm literally living in next year.

Besides, Who knows what good sept, oct, nov and december have to offer that I don't want to miss out on! Even if its nothing exciting, it sure as hell has to be better than what june, july, aug had to offer. There were some gems in there, but dang summer stung. I always love summer best, but for once I warmly welcome fall and winter!!!!!!

Long live the last part of 2014! haha
