I am shy and quiet until I get to know you. Once I do, I am loud crazy and fun! Welcome to my weird mind.

Home is where you are my beautiful little one. Missing some, but feeling extremely thankful and blessed as the holiday season is in full force. I owe it all to you Jesus. Nothing of this year has been easy. So thank you for holding my hand and going before me to make a way, for being my source of peace in the middle of the storm. You are the rock on which I want to stand.

Fly me up to where you are beyond the distant stars. I wish upon tonight to see you smile, a breath away is not far to where you are.

“Not all toxic people are cruel and uncaring. Some of them love us dearly. Many of them have good intentions. Most are toxic to our being simply because their needs and way of existing in the world force us to compromise ourselves and our happiness. They aren’t inherently bad people, but they aren’t the right people for us. And as hard as it is, we have to let them go. Life is hard enough without being around people who bring you down, and as much as you care, you can’t destroy yourself for the sake of someone else. You have to make your wellbeing a priority. Whether that means breaking up with someone you care about, loving a family member from a distance, letting go of a friend, or removing yourself from a situation that feels painful — you have every right to leave and create a safer space for yourself.”

— Daniell Koepke

“Tears shed for another person are not a sign of weakness. They are a sign of a pure heart.”

And when God opens this next door, you're going to understand why the enemy fought you so hard.

Sometimes crying is the holiest thing you can do. Sometimes it’s sleeping. Or cooking for a friend. Or sending a note in the mail. Or listening to someone share how bad their work day was or about how scary the future seems. 

Sometimes sitting in silence - really sitting in that excruciating emotional pain and muttering the words “I don’t understand” and “God, please help me” over and over - sometimes that’s the most intimate and raw and spiritual thing.

Sometimes what we think is the least “holy” is actually so close to the very heart of God.

I am the lover of your life,

I want you to be my wife.

“Before you speak, ask yourself: is it kind, is it necessary, is it true, does it improve on the silence?”

— Sai Baba (via wordsnquotes)

“I was in my room, minding my own business, and in a moment I was taken before the King of Glory, and the light of His face was terrifying. He didn’t come as this warm, fuzzy ball of….bubblegum. He came as the Holy One of Israel. In that state I was terrified. I won’t go into the whole scope of that encounter, but I will tell you it was so holy that I literally could not speak about it for two years afterwards because just to talk about it felt like my words defiled its holiness. And as I was in this experience, in His light, we see light. And in His light we also see our own wickedness. All I was aware of is that ‘You are not like me.’ As I was drawn closer to this King of Glory, there became a moment when I realize if I get any closer to Him I am going to die. I knew it. I knew I was about to die. When that realization hit my heart…it was like my soul had an ancient reflex. When I thought that, my arms–as I realized Who it was I was standing before–both shot up straight into the sky. And I screamed one word, in a way it didn’t sound human. It sounded like a dying animal. I screamed one word: ‘HOLY.’ And instantly I was back in my room. And it was like in this moment, God and His great zeal for me pulled me out of where I was, and His holiness burned something out of me. He burned me right side up, and when I was back in my room, His presence lingered, but it was no longer that holy fear of the Lord. It was the tenderness of His mercy and love, wave after wave, as if He was filling the very spot He had just seared something out. And I’ve never been the same.”

— Pastor Kevin Tipps, his testimony
