Wrap me in Your arms, Lord

About Me

"I was made to love you

I was made to find you

I was made just for you

Made to adore you

I was made to love

And be loved by you"
-I was made to Love, TobyMac

"And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I can’t."(Romans 7:18)

I am not a great person. I don't always have it all together. I make mistakes. I wander. But God loves me despite it all and he loves you too!

My Interests

"If your heart takes more pleasure in reading novels, or watching TV, or going to the movies, or talking to friends, rather than just sitting alone with God and embracing Him, sharing His cares and His burdens, weeping and rejoicing with Him, then how are you going to handle forever and ever in His presence...? You'd be bored to tears in heaven, if you're not ecstatic about God now!"
-Keith Green

Music:

"Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord"-Ephesians 5:19

Movies:

End of the Spear

This movie will rock your socks off

Books:

The B-I-B-L-E that's the book for me!
I heart anything by C.S. Lewis

"As the Ruin Falls"
All this is flashy rhetoric about loving you.
I never had a selfless thought since I was born.
I am mercenary and self-seeking through and through:
I want God, you, all friends, merely to serve my turn.

Peace, re-assurance, pleasure, are the goals I seek,
I cannot crawl one inch outside my proper skin:
I talk of love --a scholar's parrot may talk Greek--
But, self-imprisoned, always end where I begin.

Only that now you have taught me (but how late) my lack.
I see the chasm. And everything you are was making
My heart into a bridge by which I might get back
From exile, and grow man. And now the bridge is breaking.

For this I bless you as the ruin falls. The pains
You give me are more precious than all other gains.

C S Lewis

Not ashamed

The other night at work one of the managers made a comment about how I was a Christian, and the disgust in her voice was barely contained.  She was mocking the fact that I don't listen to "real" ...

Amazing Love, How can it be?

I can't understand it. A sacrificial love is so foreign, that even all these years later I just shake my head in wonder.  How can He love me like that? I'll never understand, but I do accept it.&...

New Book

I'm studying a new book, I hope that the words I get from it really help--it's a book about overcoming inferiority.  It's helping already! I'm so excited lately instead of feeling graditude ...

Why I run

The Devil is a liar.  He tries so hard to trick me, and I fall.  Often.  Hard.  The Devil tries to confuse me, make me think I'm following God and getting it right, only to flop o...

"Preparing Our Heart for Heaven in '07"

My walk with God has been really strained since school started.  I spend time in His Word, but my mind is so busy with work and school that I don't just relax and Be.

Slave to sin

Those who know me, know I how I struggle with my self-esteem.  I doubt my self-worth often.  I'm so angry at the devil.  He is trying to tempt me, so please pray.  I've been doubti...

Treasure in, Treasure out

"Garbage in, garbage out"; that phrase and discussion from John's sermon last week has stuck in my head all week.  I found myself agree more and more about how important it is to watch what you p...
