It’s not that great, but it sure was fun :)

This song means a lot to me in a way that’s different from human romance. When I hear this song I totally bring it back to Jesus and my relationship with Him :)

Don’t get me wrong, I’m a hopeless sap of a romantic, but the reason I love human relationships themselves has a lot to do with how I see God.

I’m trying to find a balance between being patient for the things God has for me but being in haste to spread the Word.

I don’t think I express my faith enough on here.

Yeah sure, I reblog typical “Christian girl” things, but obviously if no one has questioned me about my faith or even tried to start an argument with me, I must be missing something.

May

An affable night in spring

almost but not quite dark

I hear a call, a bird looking for his beloved

Along with the crickets that came to visit.

I rest my head on my hand

and hear from my own hear a beating,

ticking interworkings of my being.

I breathe a sigh, and close my eyes

I hope the passerbys can see that I’m alive.

But even more my hopes are in you,

as you accompany me this evening.

Basking, lending my ear to this singing,

love songs reminding me of my longings

of being joined on this warm and charming night.

Slowly I hear the arrival of a train

as well as the passing of a plane,

both of which scared the fowl lover away.

However, I’m not alone.

The night was quite kind

and if you don’t mind,

maybe we’ll meet again some other day.

Every emotion ever

I’m hungry, but have no appetite
Because food will never satisfy.

Nothing sounds appealing.
Not art, not music, not poetry. 


The things that do sound appealing I’m afraid will go away.
Friends, people I’m fond of, simple joys. 


Because I know that these things can never last.
Only God will last. And only God will satisfy.

I made this.

Merry Christmas, Here’s to Many More :)

I love this song so much.

Late night thoughts of love and romanticism

I may or may not regret this at a later time.

Hi. I wish I were in love. However, I am not. Some days I want this desire to go away, because my life has meaning and I don’t need to be married or in love with someone to make it anymore meaningful. Then there are days that I indulge in every romantic idea that my imagination could come up with (and then force myself away from it). I talked to a fellow hopeless romantic who has faced similar predicaments in the past and is now living the lovely romantic life she’s dreamed of. She was familiar with what I spoke of, the light hearted warm fuzzies, day dreaming, the whole 9-yards. She suggested that maybe I evaluate the media I take in. Looking back, I don’t read sappy books, I rarely watch sappy movies or sappy television programs, and yet, here I am, a complete sap. A sap in denial.

Before anyone grows concerned with the thought of my running off with just anyone, (to put it in the least vein or narcissistic terms) I actually don’t think I have to worry about becoming desperate because I can’t find someone who loves me. God loves me, and I’m reminded of that fact every time a thought questions if a human would ever find me the least bit endearing. Indeed, I am not desperate. I am loved by God, and I believe God finds every one of my quirks lovely and delightful and amusing. Because of this, that is my perception of myself.

Anyways, back to being a sap. I try to avoid exposure to the world’s perception of love, but yet everywhere I go, butterflies inhabit my stomach. This desire won’t elude me. I hear a melody, or wise words, see a beautiful illustration or a moment captured, or a completely platonic story, and my heart is just a mess. I should probably shift this affection towards the origin of these things. Infatuation wants to consume, but love wants to give and even more sacrifice. I’m not sure where I’m at. I just kind of want someone to do life with. Isn’t that part of who we are?

Oh man, oh man, oh man. Boys follow my blog. I’ve gotta stop being a sap. I must, I must, I must. I hate how many “I”s are in this post. 

Man,

I’m having one of those “I suck at everything” days.

Thankfully, despite my own futile desire to be perfect, I don’t have to be. Which is good, considering I can’t. God is good.
