Problem with the Church
We think that part of our problem is people shoving religion down everyone’s throats. That we are too passionate. Not loving or accepting enough.
Right now I’d like Satan to get out. Get out of the minds of the Church. To leave the Beloved alone. We have been promised victory through our Savior! We need to treat this victory as what it really is!
I would pose to you all that the...

I'm in love with God; God's in love with me. This...
What!? This song blew my mind. In all honesty, yesterday was our first day (we only had two sessions) here at IHOP. I’m so overwhelmed by God’s presence, God’s truth, and God’s freedom.
I don’t even know how to sort out all of the thoughts swirling around in my head right now. So many things have been taught that I’ve never felt in such a visceral way before....

Dear Tumblarite Friends
I will likely be sharing things in at least a week’s time (if not sooner) about the conference at IHOP(rayer). I’m pretty excited to see what God shows me there! I’m so excited to see how He works in the kids’ hearts! Be praying for us, you prayer warriors!! I know that especially once we get back, Satan wil try with all his might to try to defeat us. Pray that we will be...

Christmas Eve!
Hello! It seems it is Christmas Eve. My mom is in the kitchen making breakfast and everybody else is sleeping — with my grandparents and boyfriend on their way. I love Christmas Eve so much.
Also, side note, last night, I saw some 3D ultra sound pics of my little niece or nephew!! So exciting! I can’t wait to meet him (or her I guess, but I think it’s a boy) in May!

Youth group will be in Kansas City, MO in one week from now. And we will be almost to the point of no return. The point of going into a conference at the International House of Prayer and seeking more of Christ and less of us. AND I AM SO STOKED! Gah….
We’re finalizing everything right now, but I am so excited to see all that God is going to do in me and in my youth students. I...
I'm such a good girlfriend...
Trent comes home tomorrow so I’m saving him some bubble wrap to play with for a while… :) Yup. That’s unconditional love right there, folks.

Why must there be sex scenes in movies?
bryandrums:
I was watching Underworld 2, and there was stinkin 2 sex scenes! The movie was good enough without the mindless nudity. Kate Beckinsale is way pretty, but the sex scene kind of made her unpretty in a sense. Im just tired of it, what the hell kind of culture do we live in that sex has to be in every movie for it to be good? I don’t understand. We live in a fallen world for sure.
It would seem I have a few new followers!
Drop me a message :) I love getting to know people!

The Love Life of My 7 Year Old Cousin
Me: Hey, what happened to your old girlfriend?
Tripp: Oh, I broke up with her last week...
Me: What?! Why did you do that?
Tripp: Because she said that she didn't like Legos...
Me: Tripp! That's just the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
Tripp: I know! Who doesn't like Legos...?
Do you feel loved by God because you believe he makes much of you, or because...

Last night was....interesting.
I had the most ghetto youth group meeting EVER known to man kind. We had some major communication issues amongst the three of us. So I get a call from Ben last night right after I got home asking when we could meet up again before our big trip. (We had lots of things to figure out…) Wehn Tuesday didn’t quite work for him, and the 26th wasn’t looking promising for me… we met...

:( hang in there amiga
Trying. Really hard. Two and a half years is a long time — just to have to still wait a couple more years for, be 4 hours away from, never having time to hang out, and still have nobody get it. I’m just tired, Kevin… Plum tuckered out.
Sometimes I just want somebody to talk to...
Somebody to listen to me and to tell me it’s okay to cry sometimes when I’m frustrated. I want somebody physically here. And my first option is out of the question as he’s at school. I want my family to understand me and what I’m going through and doing. I don’t need a pity party. I just want understanding and a physical place of comfort. The only problem is the one...

WEAR ALL THE DRESSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kevin, I have NO dresses to wear out on a fancy date. Zip. I need them. Otherwise we would be a huge step closer to being able to go out on fancy, classy dates. It makes me so sad.
I want a fancy, classy date...
Unfortunately, we have no money, and I have no dresses for such an event.

AH YOUR PICTURE IS DIFFERENT AND IT CONFUSED ME
Very good, Harper. Very good.
When Colds Kick Your Butt
I don’t feel like I have much of a cold (in the sense that I have very few sniffles and very infrequent sneezes), but my level of energy has been gone. Literally gone. I got almost 10 hours of sleep last night, took a 45 minute nap before work, and I’ve been exhausted since 9:30 or so tonight.
