nothing's ever clear. nothing's ever what you thought it would be, what you expected. it's wrong, not what you wished for, it's twisted... but if you're lucky.. it's just right, it's more than you could imagine, it's beautiful.
for me life is like walking in the dark. but to be completely honest, this has nothing to do with me. i plan everything everyday.. im learning something, though.. it's that something has found a way to pervade my plans, my passions, my affections, my thoughts.. something has given me reason to be obsessed, to be in love, and to live.. . . He, Christ Jesus, is walking with me everyday. He's leading me by my hand in darkness i have created. i would have never planned it this way, but now it is unmistakably outside of myself a reason to give him glory for a story I could have never written.

scribbles in the sand

Lord let your voice be the only voice i hear
And your will the only thing I desire


my sister and i had our quiet time on the beach this morning. i love being outside and with my sister-- she's my favorite person in the world. my verse today was isaiah 52:7.. "how beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news".. this verse was given to me when i was at frontier ranch last summer ( the most amazing place on the earth!! ).. but anyways as i was reading my bible i ran across this verse..it so reminds me that this is all we are here to do.. to proclaim God's great love. today my prayer is " let your voice be the only voice i hear ".. i have so many mixed emotions right now. i am moving into the university of alabama in two days.. i could not be more excited, but at the same time i just know that i can be so easily pulled in so many directions... there's so many distractions everywhere, but there's one thing i cling to. 1 cor 2:2 "for i resolved to know nothing when i was with you except christ jesus and him crucified. " that verse right there will be what i crave this year. ......


i am leaving charleston tomorrow and i am dont wanna go! today we ended it off with a carriage ride and amazing dinner followed by yet another leonardo dicaprio movie, shutter island, to follow last night's inception(which is unbelievable)....i'm making my to do list because there's two days till i move in.. what????! hhaha i am so unprepared.. way too much to do  but i could not be more excited about living with the three best girls ever.. holla at 113 !
