MUSHY GUSHY

Here are some quotes on love my class talked about. Some I agree others I dont. Just thought I would share since I am feeling very in love lately.


Who ever loved that loved not at first sight

love is but the discovery of ourselves in others and the delight in the recognition

Sympathy constitutes friendship but in love there is a sort of antipathy or opposing passion. each strives to be the other and both together make up one whole.

Friendship often ends in love- but love in friendship- never.

There is no remedy for love but to love more

Truly loving another means letting go of all expectations. It means full acceptance even celebration of anothers personhood

If you judge people, you have no time to love them

Everyone admits that love is wonderful and necessary yet no one agrees on just what it is.

Love is a friendship set to music! e joseph cossman

Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired. robert frost

The best kind of love is the kid that awakens the soul and makes us reach out for more; that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds

Testimony

Sunday!

One of my resolutions this year was to bare my testimony every Sunday, and I haven't missed a Sunday yet!! I usually do it to alex but he is sound asleep next to me, so i will write it here instead! I had this crazy realization this week and it has given me a new strength. The Lord is WITHIN ME...I mean I have always know this to be true, but in terms of Satan...I thoguht He can beat me up...He can beat my body up, but he cannot touch Jesus Christ...and then I realized that Jesus is inside of me, therefore he CANT touch ME either. I have been struggling for YEARS with a really bad anxiety. I decided this week that it can no longer control my life. I asked for prayer from a man at Wesley and I have been battling it all week. Do you ever notice that when Jesus really steps in Satan tries extra hard to tempt you or get to you. NO. I declare NO to that in the name of Jesus. Just the promise that the Lord is within me is enough to get over this thing I have been battling with for nearly 1o years now. Also I want to bare my testimony about the power of dreams. The Lord gave me a scary yet beautiful dream last night. In it, I had a converstion with my brother who has passed away. It was crazy because he was so real, and I knew he was dead, and He knew he was dead, but it was totally normal for us to be talking...And it was so wonderful in my dream. He was tellin me to be strong and i was talking about how i coudlnt handle something like that ever again...and he just looked so normal...not sick, but normal. The dream involved everything from my brother to death to snakes chasing me ...see a metaphor here? The lord is still revealing to me what I need to know, but I just love how he uses every aspect of our earthly bodies to reveal his glory. I am so happy that I have a God who knows ME and all my corkiness. I say this in the name of my best friend Jesus Christ. Amen!

Reedemer and Friend

Life is crazy sometimes...

I have so much to write about sweet little blog...and i promise I will get to you. Whenever the world stops spinning...

My best friend/soulmate/confidante/ and roommate amanda's, step-father, Al, passed away on Friday afternoon. After an unexpected stroke brought us all to our knees, the world just feels off center.

All I know is I am SO grateful for my one heavenly constant.
