“

How did a man born of Eastern descent, a man who called himself the Prince of Peace, a man whom the sacred writings describe as eating with prostitutes and providing wine at weddings and healing the sick and ignoring any political plot, a man who wants us to turn the other cheek and give all our possessions if we are sued, become associated with—no, become the poster boy for—a Western moral and financial agenda communicated through the rhetoric of war and ignorant of the damage it is causing to a world living in poverty?

My only answer is that Satan is crafty indeed.

We had an infusion of the Holy Spirit late last night over at Newman to celebrate Pentacost. I couldn’t stop laughing I was so full of love and joy. I ended up leaving for a minute so I wouldn’t bother those praying around me. I still can’t stop smiling. I hope this feeling continues for a while.

God is great, and I know things are a happening in my future.

“

I once woke up at four am,
grabbed a piece of paper,
and an old pen,
and wrote,
“from what I have learned from love,
and life, and the hardships we face,
I think we breathe through photosynthesis”
and I woke up the next morning,
and I am still trying to figure out what I meant.

I met a girl my freshman year,
and the first thing she said to me was,
“I think you would still love me regardless,
but I think I am bisexual”
and in history class one day,
my closest guy friend passed me a note,
“I don’t know what to do. I messed up. I need help”
and he told me the biggest secret of his life,
he said he felt that I could be trusted.

I once knew someone who every single night,
before they went to bed,
they would call every friend they had just to tell them goodnight.
She was afraid that she wouldn’t wake up the next day, and they wouldn’t know where they stood with her.
So, I took up telling everyone I loved them, anytime I met them,
because, I, too, don’t want to wake up one day and have people questioning whether they were loved or not.

and I can’t stop thinking about those words I wrote at four in the morning,
if I keep telling people that I love them,
if I keep telling them it will be okay,
can I keep them breathing?
can I keep their heart beating?

”

“From the end of the earth I will cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I”

- Psalm 61:2

“We all get overwhelmed at times. Life is big, stuff happens, our hearts get too full. To build muscle, you need to lift weights. When lifting weights your muscles get little tears. They fuse back together and heal stronger than they were before. Our heart is the same. We need to live lives that feel, that have experiences, to know pure joy and deep heartache. Maturity comes in facing the entirety of life, not in hiding away your heart so it never feels. Our hearts need to stretch, to lift weight… You are stronger than you know. The goal is to look to Jesus in all things. When life gets too full, bring it to the God whose capacity to carry our lives has no limit. Live in the height of his strength, wisdom and ways… Not in the shallows of humanity or hidden away. When your heart gets overwhelmed bring it to Jesus who is strong, good, full of hope, whose ways are higher than ours, whose wisdom is not of this world… the only one who has the capacity to lift us from the miry clay and set out feet on solid rock no matter what it is we have done or are facing.”

**these words are not my own, but are words that are helping my heart in big ways.

Actually bawling over the office finale.
Partially because of the show’s end, but more because I also see myself, and how I’ve grown, mirrored in these characters. So many times could I identify with different people at different times, or escaped in an episode. And not it is all over, in a beautifully ended episode. It was just tied together beautifully, and I still can’t believe I won’t be able to tune in next week.

How can this show give me so many feels? Just, argh. With Jim and Pam, but also Dwight, and his end quote, and everything.
This is one episode that will not be deleted from DVR till the end of time.

And that’s the most frustrating thing about depression. It isn’t always something you can fight back against with hope. It isn’t even something — it’s nothing. And you can’t combat nothing. You can’t fill it up. You can’t cover it. It’s just there, pulling the meaning out of everything. That being the case, all the hopeful, proactive solutions start to sound completely insane in contrast to the scope of the problem.

It would be like having a bunch of dead fish, but no one around you will acknowledge that the fish are dead. Instead, they offer to help you look for the fish or try to help you figure out why they disappeared.
