I want to love God, above all else.
He teaches me to be patient, slow to anger, gentle spirited, humble, sacrificing
all things I struggle with. I love because You first loved me (:

live curiously
I really don’t want to show the world how religious I am, but to show how in love I am with You, my God.
I love you. I love you. I love you.
thank You for loving me first, before I even knew You<3
Why there is no such thing as being TOO nice.
Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear what they fear; do not be frightened.” But in you hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But to do this with gentleness and respect, keep a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. It is better, if it is God’s will, to suffer for doing good than evil.
- 1 Peter 3:13-17
i’d rather be thought of as fake than not be the things that Jesus calls me to be;
to be kind, gentle, sacrificing, giving, loving.
i just know that the world needs a lot more love<3
“If you’re looking to fill the emptiness, Jesus is what you are looking for. Not drugs, not parties, not alcohol, not sex, or hate.”
And you shall seek Me, and find Me,when you shall search for Me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13)

this is adorable! THIS is how i feel about God, about Jesus<3
I, so desperately wanted to feel and experience love, true love. Someone that can complete me, that will accept me for me, that will love me no matter the circumstances. Someone that won’t leave me and will fight for me despite my insecurities and flaws.
& I found Him on November 14th 2010, His love has never failed me (:

My dearest future children,
“…acknowledge the God of your father and serve Him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the Lord searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will reject you forever.”
- 1 Chronicles 28:9
1) I truly do want a husband that is completely and devoted to God first. Someone that can lead me and our family into faithful and joyful obedience to God. Where my children and I will be delighted to be submissive and follow because he is so loving and sacrificing as was Christ was for His bride, the Church. We will love, because God first loved us.
2) May my children love God with their entire hearts, minds, bodies, souls, and strength; with a wholehearted devotion. Where out of their love for God, they are more than happy to worship Him in every action, every thought, and words that they say. Not because my husband or I say so, nor because that is what christians simply do. I pray that our family’s hearts will be willing and delighted to be a family of servants. That we will have a loving and encouraging environment where questions are welcomed and their own pursuit of God will be supported through our words and actions.
3) But, I also will not sugar coat things. The choice to be a christian is black and white; to live for God or not. I do not want my children to proclaim themselves as christians until they truly believe that Christ is their Savior & their lives are to be laid down everyday for God and others. If they choose to follow Christ, It will be their choice on their own accord; not mine, not my husband’s, not the Church, or anyone else.
4) I know my children will never be perfect or their faith. But I pray that God will help me unconditionally love them through every step and every season of their lives; all day and everyday, no matter what.
love. love. love.

may i focus on what really matters.
on the person that gave His everything for me<3
“This is love: not that we loved God,
but that He loves us
and sent His son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins”
- John 4:10
There is nothing more attractive in the opposite sex, than seeing that person so in love with God.

if Jesus is my standard, I really am not that very nice. I’d rather be kind and be seen as fake than be mean or even apathetic. Everyone is struggling through something and I wholeheartedly believe that the world could use a little bit more love. Love is kind, love is patient.
{even though I know I can never be exactly like Christ, that should not discourage me from being like Him. much like how i know i can never be like Martin Luther King Jr. in his revolutionary thinking and actions, but he inspires me with his faith and courage to stand up against the status quo}
i have my flaws and i’m definitely not perfect. thanks for accepting me and letting me be me. friendships should transcend differences, circumstances, and feelings. your beauty amazes me and your passion inspires me. thanks love (:
i am so much more touchy-feely than you.. sorry. HAHAHA and no worries, i won’t stop. be you, i wouldn’t want you to be anyone else.
i love ya for a reason, you know?
Love
