“Whenever a girl hits thirteen, I feel duty-bound to package up a box of tissues, a paper bag and a nail. Happy Birthday, friend — welcome. Grab a wad of tissues, hide in a paper bag and hang up your life while you waste a good chunk of your youth in torturous self-consciousness and hormonal takeover. Have fun!”

I don’t really want more time; I just want enough time. Time to breathe deep and time to see real and time to laugh long, time to give Him glory and rest deep and sing joy and just enough time in a day not to feel hounded, pressed, driven, or wild to get it all done- yesterday. - Ann Voskamp

A photo I took at the 2011 March.
Original post
Monday morning, 5:30am.
39 years after Roe v. Wade, the 39th annual March for Life is slated to make its way up Constitution Avenue later today. This will be my fifth year attending the March, and my third year live-blogging via iPhone. I’m about to get in my van with my father and...

Two blocks →
Jesus— you and I, sometimes we miss each other, two blocks apart, heading north and south. More likely, I miss you, half on purpose, afraid you won’t show up, leaving me in a corner café alone. Still more afraid you will come, God himself, and sit across from me, stale muffin crumbs scattered across the table.
Only, that is frightful honesty. All the rest of the week I think it’s accidental, you...

I have a lot of people telling me to chill out for the lost souls in the world. Maybe I need to. I don’t know. I need to pray first.
I just see the whole Christian community today, and wonder, “When was the last time you shared Jesus with someone? When was the last time you swallowed your fear,…

Beloved, I'm pleading
mikeclevenger:
Beloved, if you spend more time on tumblr than in the secret place it is an idol that you need to surrender over to God. Jesus is truly worthy of preeminence over every aspect of our lives, social networking included. Friend, I’m pleading with you to consider in light of eternity and the cross. In His presence is fullness of joy and all wisdom beyond our imagination. Beloved,...

CHINA: BIBLE EXHIBIT PROTESTED →
According to the essay, overseas organizations cooperating with the Three-Self have underestimated the potential consequences of working with them. “Consider this: If the Three-Self wins the support of the overseas mainline churches, and then, in the name of ‘orthodox Christianity,’ begins large-scale persecution of house churches, the harm to the work of the Gospel far exceeds the little bit of...
It’s this time →
It never used to be like this. Not when we were sixteen and overused exclamation points in everything.
We never used to have these stories, never used to be in the middle of them, or on the edge of them, but now we are. Us who are between seedling twenty and who-knows- what.
And I realize it’s not because I’ve become more sensitive that I can’t go through the names of my twenty closest friends...

Anyhoo… a Happy New Year to you all!!

I didn’t buy any Christmas gifts this year, save something for my mom and a package of socks for a friend, and you know what? I don’t regret it. I don’t regret not spending money to prove that I care about someone.
Instead, I think I’ll enjoy the presence of my family and most importantly…
remembering why we even celebrate today.
Jesus.
Cool! Reminds me of this: Who’s...

We’ve been studying Christianity for so long, perhaps it’s time to begin living like Christ?
