I want to marry the kind of man whose sole confidence is in the Lord.
I want a man with a strong name.
I want to marry a strong man. With opinions and convictions.
One who loves intensely, and shares his heart well.
One who treasures me and writes music for me.
The man I marry will live an adventure with me. And treat it that way.
Iron will sharpen iron. I'm excited for that season, ever far off as it may be.

Re-Up
Many people have encouraged me to start blogging more regularly. And because I always (*cough*) listen to everybody, here we are. I anticipate thoughts on my Bible reading, perhaps photography, other clips of beauty, and probably just general reflections on life and the Lord. So we’ll just see what comes out….
I’ve got to admit, though, blogging has always seemed kind of weird to me. I WISH it flowed effortlessly all the time.. when in reality it is only that way a fraction of the time. It’s like my journal in that I could never figure out who I was talking to. Whoever my audience-of-the-moment was, deep down I wondered if I wasn’t just talking to myself. So if that’s true, here’s to you, compadre.

songs are playing
O feelings. Why are you so abundant.
And why is it that I feel like I learn little lessons from Grey's Anatomy? - a TV show I am only slightly addicted to, in this 3rd consecutive week of watching a minimum of 3 episodes a day.
I cry.
Things stir me. Fragile moments on screen spill my emotional cup. This is a new me.
My emotions are alive again.
I know it sounds crazy, but I'm learning to feel things all over again.
I feel sadness. And I feel pain. And reality. And I feel the struggle of life, and the life that was put inside me. And the Holy Spirit all around me.
And joy. And..... alive.
I feel a lot of things.
For the first times, in a long time.
I've had things eating away at me for months. And other things for years, and still other things for over a decade. Finally roots are being dug up and exposed.
God moves in my life on a daily basis.
