The Summer I ditched my “Summer Body”

For as long as I can remember once I hit 13-14 years old, I never felt confident or “secure” in a bathing suit. I’m not even really sure why, but the thought of putting one on nev…

We cry out to the Lord saying, ‘God, this is all I have!’ and He gently says, ‘That’s all I’m asking for.’

It has to get better… the way we treat each other and look out for each other, it has to get better somehow.

“I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am.”

This series did the book so much justice, and even days after watching I’m still so emotionally spent but applauding it all and touching base on more than one subject that shouldn’t be kept in the dark and didn’t gloss over the very real issues that can happen in a young adults life. Man... resonated with so much of this and well done.

We often waste an incredible amount of time wanting to be somewhere else, someone else. Our head-space gets clogged with compare, contrast, what if, why can’t, I should. But you’re never getting this time back. You can’t borrow tomorrow. Please don’t save the best for last. The best is all of you, here, where you are, brightly lit and painfully now, in this breath you’re leaving. Each second dies as it is born; every hello must say goodbye; all is fading in the collapsing hallway of a fragile hourglass, a grain at a time. You are here. The best is you, now.

5 Days After The Grammys, 'Chance The Rapper' Makes A Heartbreaking Confession

It’s safe to say that until his unique performance at the Grammys, the greater majority of America had never heard the name “Chancelor Johnathan Bennett.” Fast forward to today, and it seems as though Chance The Rapper is making headlines everywhere you look. On Sunday night, Chance the Rapper became the first artist to win a …

Amazing.

“Remember in the story of the ‘Good Samaritan,’ how three religious people pass right on by the bleeding man, without stopping to help? We love to hate those guys. We assume they pass by because they had no heart. Not true. They were probably just afraid! That was a dangerous area. The man had clearly been attacked- perhaps the attackers were still out there? Or maybe it was a con, and the man wasn’t really hurt. Perhaps he only LOOKED like he needed help, but he was really a terrorist? How can you be sure? So they passed by. The Good Samaritan stopped to help the man, not just because he had compassion, but also because he had courage. There is always risk involved in love. True compassion embraces possible danger to help the hurting. And yes, I am talking about refugees.”

Good word

[tblaberge]

Preach the gospel to your weary heart, daily. When in doubt, when in seasons of sorrow, and when you have nothing left! Speak the truth of God to the parts of your life that need to be resurrected, for when we shine a light the darkness must flee. Beloved, whatever stage of life we are at, we have but to whisper and the King will listen. Do you not know? He is always present, and our very heartbeat is a delight to Him.

Some things don’t last forever, but some things do. Like a good song, or a good book, or a good memory you can take out and unfold in your darkest times, pressing down on the corners and peering in close, hoping you still recognize the person you see there.
