About Me

"The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death." -Isaiah 57:1-2

Name's Emily.

I make a lot of mistakes.
I'm far from perfect.
I'm learning to become okay with that.

My friends mean everything to me.
They're are my second family.

I live my life for Christ and Christ only.
Not for myself or anyone else.
God is love and love is amazing.

♥ Emily

"I would rather write her a song, because songs don't wait to resolve, and because songs mean so much to her. Stories wait for endings, but songs are brave things bold enough to sing when all they know is darkness. These words, like most words, will be written next to midnight, between hurricane and harbor, as both claim to save her."
