“joy and suffering in birth pains,” -adam griffin via 1 Peter 1.

“blessed,” so this isn’t awkward? at all. it is however, intriguing for those inclined to overanalyze the subjective. brain workout or brain drain? both make room for growth.

it’s been this way for over a year. I’m so tired of crying. the only time I didn’t cry was when I was on tranquilizers which chemically stopped my tear ducts from being able to produce liquid. those were probably the best few months of my life. I could…

grace extendo.

i didnt realize how much i didnt realize.

just trust God.

forgiveness. love. and grace. ….because you need it too.

you know how in natural breed relationships ppl just know how to love each other then in others you have to “tell” people how to love you? & when they do it feels in-genuine & irritating bc u know they’re just doing it bc they *have* to? Is that how God feels when we’re all works based & not heart laced? Bc this feeling is really freaking annoying. Happy Monday :-)

lessons on lessons on lessons: confession, mercy, forgiveness, dont talk and drive, think or breathe prolly either.. while driving, tho i do it well, with the exception of potholes, prayer, oh and the struggle is real. its real. its really really real.

so random. so this was kinda fun. editing is hard. i have a new appreciation for the quality found in digital media, so that’s nice. i also have a new appreciation for the quality found in unconditional love, so that’s Life. HE HAS RISEN …Xo :-)

the ‘already but not yet’ concept is complicated bc multiple truths can exist simultaneously. ….trying to be too wise? why destroy yourself? duly noted domm.

tax season brings out a lot. I’m always reminded of the chunks I’m automatically ineligible as well as the chunks taken out as a personal “thank you” for being single & childless. anyways. yesterday when it came to the assets section.. i knew what was coming.. i get the same speech every year. when futures/ option trading & the importance of diversifying my portfolio I freaked out. I’ll take risk w my life (sky diving) but not my money. neither of which is mine btw. this is also directly correlated to my faith walk… faith is super risky, but the difference is the outcome is secure… tho the waiting period for your return is unpredictable and may show loss, significant loss, but if you can see it with your eyes it probably isnt real. that being said. there are a lot of idols here I guess. theres also prolly a really good lesson to be gleaned from the parable about talents but more importantly, theres more grace and grace smashes idols any day.

i dont know. oh yeah… love fearlessly? lovelovelove. more than a word… learning in progress.

some feel the hedge of thorns placed around our idols by God is painful because of the thing it keeps us from. I’ve found the hedge placed around the pleasure you get from things you already have or are given, to be far more painful. you can’t miss what you never had but you can certainly feel emptiness in a space that was once filled. maybe the goodness of abstinence transcends the suffering in that it makes room to taste a far greater palette. with flawlessly pleasurable satisfaction which overwhelms the senses. only pleasure created by the Creator of pleasure can legit offer such things.
