what I don't want to forget will not make sense to anyone who reads this, but please, feel free to try
I don't want to forget
buying "hire me" pants and calling it an investment
Gotta spend money to make money, my friendsI'm parking - Ok, I'll be making bad decisions in Dillards
Barnes and Noble AFTERNOONS
Grande Caramel Frappachino and Unforgettablely named oreo desert
at 3 PM? Yes and Yes
Maria Loewen = BESTIES FO DA RESTIES
Reading 146 pages "Sold" ---
Talking and getting ready for downtown Saturday nights with Ellen!
Pumphouse -- I remember this time.
No need for Honey Wheat
Lesson learned
Got yo wings on yo coat durr, Captain!
Sam's light up gangsta watch - it's like his own portable dance party
That time we ran into ERRRYYBODDAYYY
Sonic doesn't open until 9 a.m. - and Sunday school doesn't start until 9:30
So Wendy's chicken butter biscuit it is!
Absolutely no regrets.
My Sunday School Sistas
GET INTO MUHH ARMSSSS
Hugs never loved a reunion more.
Pop Rock Israeli Chocolate
Allow me to begin your addiction to BUENO BARS! HEYO!
Camel riding videos
I planked here but this is why you should know more about
Where I went.
But here's where I am going.
?
Not any specific location, just
God's calling.
When people make you feel like you have to apologize
for the passionate change you want to make in this world --
DON'T.
Pray instead.
Tears come with words.
6 pairs of hands
5 souls
Repeat after me -
"I, ____________ (state your name)
promise to never marry a man with a mullet and I
promise to follow my dreams."There will be people, she says,
who don't understand why you are passionate
about something they are blinded to believe as pointless.
But promise me, you five souls, promise me --
you will pursue God's calling
chase after it
sprint - (Usain Bolt style)
turn a deaf ear to the doubters
turn your heart to change
believe the one who is alive inside you
wants to make a difference in your own heart
and in the hearts of those around you.
5 souls promise.
So soul sister prays for big sister
That God will provide her calling
Eat buffet pizzaAnd big sister has never believed more
in the power of prayer -
cannot comprehend its sincerity when the mature
young lady prays.
Brings the big sister's soul to its knees.
So then she continues
To drop off these promises
one by one.
Around the small, gracious town.
Hugging goodbye
Promising pet stores and
I love you's---
Until the last one, the far west side
cannot reply
and driver will later know why -
Later, when not driving, the driver reads
words that have been written by tiny hands
but an articulate heart --
You have helped us get closer to the Lord, because of how close you are to Him.
Oh the tears
casade like Bridal Veil falls in Portland, Oregon
Relentless and tall and full of beauty and gratefulness -
Oh, how they have not stopped.
To write a story with the tears
How young ladies's words have the power to ploug over a woman's fear and replace it with
childlike faith.
So she pulls over and prays.
Walks down a gravel road
Remembers the sermon of the day
Gifts
Abilities
Passion(s)
The Spirit is moving - do not swaddle him now
Walking with genuine friend - reminds me about control.
Does this feel like the end of a chapter?
This chapter?
Who knew 5 years ago
I drove the same road
Telling my family I would like to go back -
So I did.
How did I know?
Where did the peace come from?
Will it revisit me again?
Oh, to trust the God who led me northbound on 13 mile road
To the blinking intersection of smallt-town D street
parking at community
dropping me off at change -
The unfamiliarity of return.
Oh, Hillsboro, you will always feel like home.
But I can see the sunset from this back porch, fading
Giving way to another world's sunrise.
This change. This peace. They are shaking hands -
Saying,
What a beautiful, needed partnership of time, of transformation
But now the story must progress.
Hopefully God will lead you where He is calling you,she writes -
and have fun marrying Tim Tebow.
And I, leaving tears on 1-35,
cannot handle how God's gracious and love, manifested in and through others -
it has brought me to my knees with tears today.
Oh to remember this day, this weekend, this moment, this lesson - and to remember the faces that filled the frame of sweet time and transformation.
Your faith, my 5 souls, give me courage to trust in mine.
