I will never harm you


that is taking on a whole new meaning lately

we'll have to wait until summer

there are so many places i want to go! LA, San Fran, Portland, anywhere in Maine, + Chicago. i want to go there and stay.y.y.y






I think i like that place so much because it reminds me of my innocent and free self. I am amazed at the heaviness of my heart i had for a couple years after and never even noticed it until i found joy again. The me in chicago is me. And it is neat. to find myself being that me again. it calls for a big weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i am a terrible blogger.

"Is marriage for our happiness or our holiness? I have learned that marriage is what the Lord chose for me to know Him more intimately...and as an incredibly wonderful by-product, I get to share life with my best friend...we hurt each other but we love each other...there's no other person I would rather be with...ever!"

I could not have put it better, Lauren Chandler.

Marriage is for God.

Dating is for God.

the person that you bring God more glory together than you do alone. That's the person. Because God's glory is the goal.

the almost as cool part: like Lauren said, it's having sleepover after sleepover, date after date, meal after meal with your very best friend. It's your life! with someone else! who you want to be with more than any body. any body! when God is the designer of that relationship... how cool?
