Music is a lifestyle. Laughing is a drug. Smiling makes life easy. Loving is the greatest commandment. Eating fills the stomach, worshiping fills the spirit. Blogging clears the mind. Living is a gift. Jesus Gives Me Purpose. |
Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. (Proverbs 4:23)
Joyce Meyer “Guard your Heart”

So my friend was told this by a classmate: “Just do it, Ryan. Go kill yourself. Make thousands happy.”
I bet him $10 that I could find him 1,000 people that want him to stay alive by the end of the school year; early June. Like or reblog this to help him, please.

…love is kind… 1 Corinthians 13:4, NIV.
One translation of today’s simple verse says that “love looks for a way to be constructive.” In other words, love looks for ways to improve someone else’s life. Love brings out the best in other people. Don’t just get up in the morning thinking about yourself or how you can make your own life better. Think about how you can make someone else’s life better. Ask yourself, “Who can I encourage today?” “Who can I build up?” You have something to offer those around you that no one else can give. Someone in your life needs your encouragement. Someone in your life needs to know that you believe in them. I believe God will hold us responsible for the people He’s put in our lives. He’s counting on us to bring out the best in our family and friends.
Are you improving the lives of those around you? Are you pouring confidence in them? Why don’t you ask the Lord to give you creative ways to bring out the best in others? As you sow into the lives of others, God will send people along your path that will build you up so that you can embrace every blessing He has in store for you.
Just what I needed. Even if He never finds a man to put it in, I’m totally content and satisfied with having it in His hands forever. <3

or should I say kayak? And, I’m without a paddle.
I need to get back to the island…but that’s kinda hard to do without a paddle.
I don’t particularly mind being in this kayak, but it’s been quite awhile, and I’m longing for being on that island.
I guess the first thing that would help me is that I acknowledge that I’m in fact in a boat, and my goal is the island. The mainland is nice too, but I’m not ready for it. In fact, one day in the future I realllllly hope that I’ll get to the mainland, but I don’t think I’m prepared for that quite yet.
God, please help me get back to the island. Even if that means jumping out of my boat and swimming ashore. JUST PLEASE HELP ME GET TO THE ISLAND!
(Disclaimer: this is an analogy I like to use when I’m trying to explain my “crush” situation.
Me in a boat = crushing
Island = singleness/being content with singleness
Mainland = Dating/in a relationship)
Can I have this instead? :D
