nice surprises

every once in awhile, God blesses us with things, people, events, memories...

and every once in awhile, we're caught off guard. these things, people, events, and memories are given to us so quickly, when we least expect it. it's a nice surprise.

i thank God everyday for what i have.
i am loved...He loves me =D

a good reminder.

i had a really nice and long talk with a good friend today.

i was reminded about how i shouldn't take things for granted.
i am very happy, with what has been given to me and what i'm blessed with...and even what has been taken away from me!

appreciate everything and everyone that you have.
don't take things for granted, or you'll wake up one day and realize they're gone.

oh...and don't forget to tell people that you love them :)

On God I Rest

i've been listening to shane and shane for the last two weeks (on repeat), and i've grown to use one of their songs as a prayer everyday. reading the lyrics or listening to the song...reminds me of how amazing God is, and how I can use him as my rock - turning to Him when i need Him...He's always there for me.

take a moment to meditate on it...


Shane and Shane - Psalm 62

He’s the only one
Strong enough to lean
My heaviness against
The weight of all my sin
Falling on a rock
Leaning on a fortress
Oh the wall of God, Jesus
He won’t move

On God I rest
My salvation
My fortress
Shall not be shaken
My mighty rock
And my glorious
I lay my head upon His chest
On God I rest

Oh I am calling out
Oh my soul
Oh my stubborn soul
Won’t you wait on Him
Wait in the quiet
Even in your fear
Oh your God is here, to lean on!
He won’t move

He has spoken
Hear his voice
I have come for the broken
So all ye weary come and rest

a cherry popped.

i've been saying that i wanted to get a blogger for quite awhile now, but haven't gotten around to do it until now. of course, it's in the midst of my procrastinating that i find time to do something like this. but then again, it is while i am procrastinating that i think the most, about the most random and absurd things ever.

i'm sitting in the library on a friday night with some fellowship people. yea, we're real cool.

anyway, i've been thinking a lot lately about getting a therapist. not because i'm crazy - oh no, i'm actually quite sane and normal (according to myself at least). however, being the weird psych major that i am, i tend to get sucked into thinking a lot about what we learn, and trying to figure out if i have this or that disorder. having a therapist would just be amusing for me - i want to be analyzed by a professional and see how i fare.

that's all the randomness i can spit out for now. it's late on a friday night, high time i get out of this library.


peace out.
