i should also make an effort to move my things into drawers and closet space a little more,
so i don’t feel completely like a vagabond during these transient months of being home.
dropped off a roll of film to be developed this evening,
and then i forgot that cvs closes at 8 on sundays.
the dim lights and locked door helped me recall this information.
so i guess i’ll have to pick up my photos in the morning.
—John 17— Jesus is talking to the Father.
(this is one of the most beautiful chapters of the Bible) So much of it is His heart for us… Which is a really special thing for us to know and have.
I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. Now they know that everything that...
the whirlwind —Lander Roark—
“First, this really just happened. It is not figurative, but literal.
So, I was sitting, having quiet time with the Lord. I heard the wind blowing hard toward my left, but didn’t feel it blowing much where I was. As I viewed what was happening, I saw that a little whirlwind was moving through the cow pasture on the other side of...

eastering:
Dear Creation, I realize just how much I’m falling in love with you again. I’ve been so hard on myself that it became easy to be cynical over you and your heart. It’s because I could so clearly see me in you. I wasn’t happy with that. I was unsatisfied. But understanding the joy of the Lord feels a lot like my insides coming out. His deeply seeded love for us breaks past every...
that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Colossians 2:2-3

and then, one time, my sister spent $1,000+ on me for my birthday.
i think she would have done it if it wasn’t my birthday, too.
she didn’t have much, and we never have,
but that’s the kind of living that we’ve come to know.
the kind that often doesn’t make sense,
but meets hearts and spirits where they’re at,
like a cup of water from a spring lifted to...

Joshua Bell—Song to the Moon from Rusalka
the morning’s so gentle you could cry.
i woke before the sun came up to a hundred thousand raindrops falling through all the trees huddled around my parents’ home and the audible illusion of many voices chattering and laughing somewhere out there in the dark. it must have been some way that the water was hitting other puddles of water that gave off tones rather than splatters. it...

i want to post every song on mewithoutYou’s It’s All Crazy! It’s All False! It’s All A Dream! It’s Alright and Ten Stories albums, they are making my heart and tummy and ears and spirit so so happy right now. man.
i’ve been so spread thin in my days and in my life. spread thin over relationships and expectations. over time and distances and more “deep relationships” and “best friends” than i can count on my fingers and toes. this can lead to shallow relationships and loneliness and a great deal of feeling like a failure—never being able to give one quite as much as they...
Anonymous asked: I am happy to see you finally post a song and not preface it with "this needs more work". It's a beautiful thing.
“I had a 2-mo old sleeping in a moby on my chest and needed the dish unloading to do my task as quietly as possible. It was tedious at first, but as I started to become frustrated with the lack of efficiency, I realized I’d happened upon (and was about to miss!) something so wonderful: Slowness.
I limited my hands to one dish each and quietly placed items in their proper home one by one....

internet musings have served so much as venues
for emotional hands reaching for emotional connection,
for misleading or misinterpreted expressions,
of which i have played the role of both hunter and prey.
i have grown so accustomed to learning things the hard and humbling way.
now the insatiable appetite for the...

Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from you.” Psalm 16:1-2
Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord, O my soul!
I will praise the Lord as long as I live;
I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
Put not your trust in princes,
in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.
When his breath...

when your professor hugs you after you thank him for caring enough to unintentionally help you understand that you should not be a journalism major.
when the mountain and the pit are next door neighbors —Lander Roark—
“I feel like I’m going crazy. the stress levels inside my soul are at least six percent higher than I think they should be. it hurts. the tension hurts. the friction hurts. I experience such heights, such intense revelation, such overwhelming peace and security. I get the one who knows everything...

Mikey and Me —as iron sharpens iron—
Mike and I, we’re polar opposites.
Mike is a loving skeptic, full of lighthearted sarcasm and good discernment.
And I am an embracive lover, full of sincerity and good intentions.
I spend a lot of my time taking life too seriously and feeling like I have to clean up after Mike’s sarcastic messes and make sure that people feel...
