Half-way there, yet not so much.

Have you ever seen those cars on the road that are just stuffed with stuff?? Kind of like a parent pushing a shopping cart almost overflowing with junk food, trailed by kids screaming their heads off. A lot of times I just wonder at how people can consume so much..junk.

Well, today I stuffed my poor little Toyota Tercel full til i feared it would explode and spew my junk onto the freeway. If you look closely, you can see my pillow smashed against the rear window. Lol. Thank GOD I didn't get a ticket for this.


Welcome to the lot of ghetto junk-filled cars..
And yes, that is my soy sauce on the ground.

Thanks to Ethan for helping me move! I believe this is my first time asking for help moving..or help..doing anything... Haha so it's an odd tendency of mine to attempt monstrous tasks by myself as a sort of challenge I put myself to. Lol but by now I've gotten pretty tired of packing and moving twice a year, though it is good training for my guns, which by the way are stoked for swim season again! Wooooo..

Light mood, can you tell?
Well TCHYEA if you haven't guessed it's cause I'm done with finals, and sophomore year, and all of my chem courses at sc, and lugging my life back to rowland, and what else what else, I don't know, but I want to save the world now. But also sleep..more so..sleep.


I am.
Drained, sore, brain-battered
Reflective, saddened
Wishing I had given more,
Possibly given some too much
Content knowing I gave my best
Rejoicing that there's One sovereign
And He is always, always good.


Maybe I'll do an end of year 'reflection'
but you maybe won't see it.

Joyful Invitation

As, when the Jews from all parts of the country went up thrice a year to worship at Jerusalem, they called on their friends in the road and excited them to go along with them, so shall many of the Gentiles court their relations, friends, and neighbours, to join with them in embracing the Christian religion (v. 3):  "Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the  Lord;  though it be uphill and against the heart, yet it is the mountain of the Lord,  who will assist the assent of our souls towards him.’’  If only we would as easily invite all our friends, neighbors, family, and co-workers to know the Lord , as we would invite them to parties or to hang out..

The Good Eye

Coming from an unsaved home, the messages I first received from Christianity were that there was a Person who loved me. I was mind-blown that there was a Creator who knew and loved me extravagantly. I didn’t understand the religiosity of things or even how people could be sick of church. But over a decade, the Person I first fell in love with began to fade into the background of my memory, and the clamor of my own insecurities and comparisons with others began to take over – in regard to how well-versed I was with the Bible, how well I could pray, how much I was doing for God in missions and evangelism, whether I could prophesy accurately, whether people were healed when I prayed for them, and the list goes on.  The passage that struck me recently regarding this matter was Matthew 6:22-23: “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good , your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad , your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light ...

The Worth of Hiddenness

For much of my 20’s, I aspired to a certain idea and vision of greatness. I received prophecies about my greatness and how the Lord wanted to use me to “impact nations.” I heard these kinds of words over and over, and these words were great to hear – but naturally, after many years of not making much impact, I felt like I had failed God to some measure (I believe my experience is not uncommon). I felt I needed to figure out how to achieve “big impact” in order to truly fulfill my calling and destiny in life.   The Great Commission says in Matthew 28:19-20:  "Go therefore and  make disciples of all the nations , baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit...”  When read plainly, the Great Commission does put forth this command of impacting nations. The problem is that we have interpreted the Great Commission in a way that makes it unachievable to 99% of Christians who do not have large platforms or access to thousands ...
