Insomnia Strikes Again

So, once again I am up at 2:30 in the morning with my brain refusing to quiet down when I realized I haven't blogged in who knows how long. Mostly because, let's be honest, people who read this already know what's going on in my life. But, turns out, I like being able to look back at the things I thought were important enough to tell people on the internet. To make it simple: God is so faithful. I knew that He was. Maybe. At least I said I knew that He was, but I think even when I would say that - when I would believe it even - there was a little...

Prone to Wander

"Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life." John 6:68It amazes me how I can know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the only, ONLY, thing that will satisfy is Christ. Yet, I find myself constantly looking for that satisfaction in other places. I convince myself that it's easier to do things like watch a movie or sleep than spend time with the only One who can satisfy my desires. The only one who can bring me contentment, joy, and love.I was just meditating on that verse a little bit, and reminded of the fact that there is no where...

Song Challenge Day 20

A song you listen to when you're angry.I was at Passion 2011 this weekend in Ft. Worth, and therefore, was unable to post songs on here. So I am just going to pick up where I left off and will end up finishing in...33 days? I think. As far as this song goes though, if you ever see or hear me listening to this song, know that I am really really ticked off. I very very rarely get angry enough for me to listen to this song.It used to be one of my favorites, but I realized it causes a lot of anger to stir in my heart and stopped listening to it. Except,...

Basketball

That's me in 10th grade.As long as I can remember, basketball has been a part of my life. Up until college, I would have to say basketball more or less was my life. It's who I was, it's what I was known for, it's what I did. I was one of those people that you could look at and tell I was a baller. Most of my best memories are on the court or have to do with basketball.Playing with three of the best (and best looking) boys I know.Once I got into college...
