the righteous cry out and the LORD hears them, he delivers them from all their troubles. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious,  you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.  For it stands in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious, and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”

So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,” and “A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

1 Peter 2:4-10

decisions, decisions. there are seriously SO many decisions that need to be made in the near future and normally, i would be beyond freaking out and stressed. but i'm not at all, i have an overwhelming peace about it which is frankly amazing at this point. the Lord provides and he is in control and knows and wants whats best for me and the kingdom and that is what is comforting.

i just saw this on my little sister's blog and its so encouraging that she posted this.

If only…..thats what we whisper when we catch a glimpse of ourselves. If only my eyes were green. If only my nose wasn’t so big. If only i had less freckles. Why can’t i be like her. She’s got everything that i want. When you look in the mirror and see ugly and not good enough, your telling God he messed up. Yeah he only made the stars in the sky, the beautiful sunsets and the ever expanding universe, but he definitely messed up on you right? 

What is our problem? can’t we see God made us the way we are for a reason? he gave us all our strengths and our weaknesses. Nothing God does is wrong. It is always 100% perfect in every way. By us not choosing to see that we not only hurt ourselves but also hurt God. Its hard but honestly, you are who you are for a reason. so stop trying to change that. 

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. -Psalm 139:14

what a smarty little 16 year old.

man oh man, God's teachin me a lot lately. and i'll be honest, i feel pretty lost in it all but the fact that i havent (really) lost my head is better than usual. trust is a big thing, as always, and its not like you learn to trust God and then thats it, poof you never have to learn it again, no its a constant conscious choice allll the time to trust Him. and sometimes (like now) thats all i can do, is trust Him and cast my cares upon him and totally just admit that i cant do anyyythiiingnggggg on my own, i cant not mess everything up without him.
and also right now just knowing that he loves me, is huge.
and so yeah.
i doubt any of that made sense but right now, thats where i'm at.

humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him because he cares for you. 1 peter 5:6-7

on saturday we went to a show in SLO at the Brew and it was so wonderful. my favorite band was the Sassafrass Union. 

they're soo good and folky and fun and energetic, they had a violinist, a celloist (?) and the lead singer, ben, played guitar and banjo. plus they had a super super good electric guitar guy and zach's friend jaren was the drummer! it was a great show.

here's a video of them at the show (the song is a conversation between the devil and God and a person!)

this girl, i tell ya.

we have soo many laughy laughs all the time, i truly treasure her. she's got a huge beautiful free spirited heart.

soo much love.

am i a God at hand, declares the Lord, and not a God afar off? can a man hide himself in secret places so that i cannot see him? declares the Lord. do i not fill heaven and earth? declares the Lord. jeremiah 23:23-24

(62/365)

relationships are hard stuff man. its hard to not be selfish 100% of the time and its hard trying to put someone before yourself. i'm learning just how selfish i am and it really stinks and its really frustrating and most of the time i just want to ignore it and pass it by but i have to work on it. and working on things is also just hard!!!!!!!!! knowing that there are things wrong with you and that you'll never be able to work your way to being perfect is hard. life is hard. but God is 100% good and true and perfect and faithful and gracious. and because of that i don't have to be perfect. and that is both comforting and wonderful. but its darn hard trying not to be selfish, i tell ya.

thank God for jesus and the cross.

surely i am with you always, even to the end of the age. matthew 28:20
