she. is. my. favorite.
this week
not only did i feel a little bit of the pang they feel every single day,
i felt just how lucky i am.
on my way home after school, i got so excited for my apple i usually have every day.
then i remembered i couldn’t.
then i remembered they can’t either. ever.
little things like gum, OJ at breakfast, some chocolate at night to wake me up.
couldn’t have it. & they probably...
today is a lovely day for a walk.
i Will Come Away With You.
You made the decision many years ago to die for me.
i made the decision a few years ago to live for You.
i can’t fathom that exchange,
i can’t comprehend how Your love could free so completely,

so that in some other moment
i can go away with You too.
thank you
jesus paid it all
all to him i owe
sin had left a crimson stain
he washed it white as snow
oh praise the one
who paid my debt
and raised this life
up from the dead
your love for us is unfathomable.
astounding and powerful.

maybe make a change
get back on our feet again
maybe make...”
so sometimes i dip my pb&j in my milk because it tastes good.
i find it amazing

God is weird.
a good break it was.
when you feel the world
is crashing all around your feet
come running headlong into my arms
breathless
i’ll never judge you
i can only love you
come now, running headlong
into my arms
breathless
