"Instead of withholding love to change somebody, I poured it on, lavishly. I hoped that love would work like a magnet, pulling people from the mire and toward healing. I knew this was the way God loved me. God had never withheld love to teach me a lesson."

random thoughts.

sometimes i honestly just sit and look at my life; i look at the past places I’ve been, the people I’ve had relationships with, the type of person I used to be. Its weird to say that we are always changing, there is never a moment time where we are not affected/impacted/influenced by the people and places around us. its just wickedly sweet to see where i’ve come and sturfff. I’m soo thankful for god’s continual work in my life. yeahh ramble, ramble done

haven’t kirked off in a while, need prayer. don’t like this ugly side of me.

"People need to be encouraged. People need to be reminded of how wonderful they are. People need to be believed in—told that they are brave and smart and capable of accomplishing all the dreams they dream and more. Remind each other of this."

"Desperate people date because of what they lack and are hoping to get from somebody else. Dependent (On Christ) people date because of what they have and want to give to someone else. Desperate people date out of emptiness. Dependent people date out of overflow."

Sometimes the devil doesn’t come dressed in a red cape and pointy horns… he comes disguised as everything you ever wished for.

everlastingjesus:

He’s surely alive and He’s living on the inside roaring like a Lion.♥

sadly i can relate to this post especially right now. i feel like im only living my life to half of its full potential because me and god aren’t on the same page at all. i need god. i need to get together and die to myself again. its soo easy to get caught up and waste time.
