Love, is a marathon. That's why you get so tired so fast of everyone. Slow down and face yourself. Cause when it's good, it's is a long, open road. You're exhausted, always comming down, trying to come up for air, trying to act like you just don't care. Love is a marathon...

The Past Is Only The Future With The Lights On.

Cause these are the days worth living, these are the years worth giving, these are the moments--these are the times, let's make the best out of our lives...


How many times in a period of say a year do we hear the question, "Are you sure?". Furthermore, when we give our answer to the very question--how many more times do we hear in response, "But how do you know?". That's just it--how do we know anything? How are we assured in our decisions when life remains to be a question?

Faith.
The assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things we cannot see.
Hebrews 11:1


Simply it is the belief that although we cannot answer every question in life fully or correctly, that we can find assurance and hope because faith assures of what we cannot see, nor touch--nor prove. It is a beautiful thing because faith itself does not require proof by sight nor science--it's knowing something is real without even having to see it, question it or understand it.

Are you sure?

Yes.

How do you know?

Because I have faith--even though I know I cannot answer everything, or know every possible outcome of every decision, I have faith that God has amazing plans for my life and if I follow him, I can be sure.

Thanks girl! Tell Sean though that you don't need any "body modification experiences" to be anymore gorgeous--you are already a lil' hottie!

Nessie:
Way to make me tear up when reading my blog comments! Ness: 1 Alex: 0. Thanks so much for everything for being someone I look up to and of course my best friend! Love you!

Tim-Bomb:
Next week works for me perfectly as long as it's after six because that's when my lab ends. Wings and beer to end the year sounds great--I'm going to miss you guys! And wow factor sounds pretty good to me!

Rachel:
There's a next piercing!? Back up here, this one hurt enough--I think I'm too chicken to go any further haha. On another note, I am so glad that you're finally home (and sober!!), I'll see you in a couple hours for lunch!

Jordy:
I'll give you a call tonight--can't wait to hear how your missions trip was! Julie-Anne has already told me little bits and pieces! So excited for you!
