About Me

I'm always changing, always learning always growing, and always hoping to never be a finished product. I love to listen, think, and ask questions as well as discuss anything from the latest episode of One Tree Hill to music to theology, controversial topics of faith and critiques on Christian teaching. My heart's passion is for teenagers and loving people as Christ has loved me. I struggle with figuring out life and how to live it. I don't have all the answers when I wish I did. All I can be is me. Sometimes I don't think that's good enough, but my friends do and they mean the world to me. I love to love, even when it hurts. One thing I've learned that has never changed but rather has become more and more indented into my mind and heart is this - there is nothing greater, nothing sweeter, nothing worth as much than knowing Christ and making Him known.

There’s only one thing left to do: Drop all I have and go with you

Oh my friends, I have seen that laziness is such a hindrance to growth. You cannot love Christ and stay the same; it takes work, whether you're motivated or not, to follow Him. As Matt Chandler once s...

Do you want me?

I don't believe that it's only me who struggles with the need to find approval in another's eyes, often one person in particular. I think that the most unhealthy way to live in a relationship is allo...

Finding a lost identity...

I'm a bit perturbed with school right now because it makes me so sick of writing, and when I have something I really feel a need to write about, I avoid sitting down and facing the blank white page in...

Another bit of my heart...

Sometimes I wish so desperately that I could control a person's heart and make them love the Lord with all that they have. I have been blessed so richly as to have my eyes opened to the kept promises...

Just a bit of my heart...

It's such a relief when you finally get a peace about any decision that has been weighing on your mind for quite some time. It's as if everything falls perfectly into place once you simply are able to...

What more can I do?

Has inadequacy ever been a struggle? I know for my life it is something I have felt so heavily over and over again. I feel sometimes as if I'm in a relentless cycle that I can never get out of. Someti...

Do you ever...

Do you ever look at a picture that you've probably seen 5 dozen times and wonder about who that person is that stares back at you, their eyes so happy and their smile so big and real? Do you ever won...
