i want to fall in love with you, Jesus.
so that's been my little theme lately - early mornings, late nights and all. can i just say falling in love isn't easy?? the crazy thing is that he is worthy of it, right? but at the same time, i have to get to know God to fall in love with him. in order to truly be devoted and in love, i have to decide to. i have to pursue the knowledge of him, who he is. and can i just say again that that is not easy at 7:45am!!! AND i have to keep in mind that i cannot love God or live for him out of my own self and strength. i can only love him because he loves me! i get so frustrated with myself sometimes - all these ideals and desires, but i feel as though i don't live them all out. but what i do know i love - i just ask for increased grace as i learn to live out of that love!
i finished my camp application on sunday!! i'm really excited to work at camp - i know to some it sounds crazy, cuz i won't make a lot of money....but i really want to do this. i LOVE being outside, and it gives me one more month in the city and i get to work with kids all summer!!!! oh school. please be over soon!

I pray for that extra measure of grace...I'm so in the same space...God is working...and you know what you are a captivating and beautifully crafted masterpiece...and I pray He gives you a heart that swells beyond capacity for him :)
Lovin' ain't easy, livin' gets in the way, but trust that the love He has for you isn't contingent on what you do!
I hear you Marcia. It seems to be a cry that is resonating in the hearts of so many people - it is sometimes painful and mostly frustrating but also so good. At least, I am holdin gout that hte results of this will be good.
thank you Jesus for these girls!!
i love each of you!
