If you must cheat, cheat death

Let's keep things simple :)“There'll be two dates on your tombstone And all your friends will read 'em But all that's gonna matter is that little dash between 'em”

If you ever met me, you would think I was an extrovert — I preach, I lead praise, I talk to everyone, I talk too much, and you can hear me laughing from across the street — but I am a full-blooded introvert.

If it were up to me, I’d rather be in my boxers all day eating Godiva...

Always be honored when someone lets you in on their craziness.

When they’re at their most slobbery, vulnerable, neurotic, exposed rock bottom: please don’t belittle them.  Embrace.  Be gracious.  Your advice is probably good, but not as good as being there to catch them.

The Christian is in a different position from other people who are trying to be good. They hope, by being good, to please God if there is one; or—if they think there is not—at least they hope to deserve approval from good men. But the Christian thinks any good he does comes from the Christ-life inside him. He does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us.

So punny.

It’s messing people up, this social pressure to “find your passion” and “know what it is you want to do”. It’s perfectly fine to just live your moments fully, and marvel as many small and large passions, many small and large purposes enter and leave your life. For many people there is no realization, no bliss to follow, no discovery of your life’s purpose. This isn’t sad, it’s just the way things are. Stop trying to find the forest and just enjoy the trees.

To recognize your own brokenness and to know that He loves you unconditionally despite your condition and imperfections. I think it was really this last retreat that this idea become more ingrained and concrete to me. To be vulnerable and open is really where true relationships can form.

Thankful my roommates made this for me after a long and tiring day on Wednesday! So many things to be thankful for this week but they are one of the reasons I made it through this week!

Most people who go through college will one day work.

One way to train them to be disciples of Christ in their workplaces is by example: carry the fragrance of Christ into your own workplace. This is why it’s so important for Christians to minister in all corners of the world—in hospitals, construction sites, galleries, elementary schools, Wall Street, NGOs, public accounting firms.

I no longer believed in the idea of soul mates, or love at first sight. But I was beginning to believe that a very few times in your life, if you were lucky, you might meet someone who was exactly right for you. Not because he was perfect, or because you were, but because your combined flaws were arranged in a way that allowed two separate beings to hinge together.
