It was grace that taught my heart to fear.

Wanna know a secret? I’m sad we aren’t having that date either.

I’m always soft for you, that’s the problem. You could come knocking on my door five years from now and I would open my arms wider and say ‘come here, it’s been too long, it felt like home with you.

2015 was..

Crazy. I'm ending the year with my own house, a job that not only makes good money but I also enjoy, more mended relationships than broken ones and a new school. I am no where near where I thought I would be and for that I am so grateful. I have learned to stand up for myself and for the people I love. I've learned that change is good and heartbreak is okay. To love someone so much that it hurts when they're gone, that pain is rare and temporary. I've lost people who I thought would be in my life forever. I lost the person I thought I would spend the rest of my life with. God has taken my plans and showed me that they were wrong. Now I'm pretty much clueless about my life. Haha. But I'm confident in Jesus and his plan for my life. I'm saying goodbye to 2015. Saying goodbye to bitterness and sadness and a lot of heartbreak and laughter and late nights and stress. And I'm saying hello to new chances and risks a heck of a lot more joy.

Concept: I’m laying on your lap. You’re playing with my hair. Quilts and sweaters keep us warm. You’re happy. I’m not anxious or sad. Everything is okay.

Tonight

I'm surrounded by young and happy souls. So fun, and full of smiles, and ready to take on whatever the world throws at them. Full of laughter and love and over-all joy. I should be happy. But I don't feel happy. I hadn't realized that I really didn't even want to go until I got on the van this morning for the four hour trip here. I feel broken and all I really want is to feel whole again. I want peace and confidence in Jesus' timing. I want love--both to be shown it and to show it myself to people I encounter. I just need to figure out how to make that happen. Through prayer and through worship and some mentoring, that should be doable. I can't do it on my own. Once I decide to do things differently because my well being depends on it, things will change. I want things to change. I need them to.

If Christmas was really rough for you this year, or if today turned out to be hard and things didn’t go as planned, I just want you to know that I love you, support you, and I hope you finish this year strong.
