Quote of the Day


"Spiritual transformation does not result from fixing our problems.  It results from turning to God in the midst of them and meeting God just as we are.  Turning to God is the core of prayer.  Turning to God, in our sin and shame is the heart of spiritual transformation"
-  David Benner, The Gift of Being Yourself, p67

my prayer warrior



Meet Rachel. I’ve known her since she was born. For the last two years, she has prayed for me every night. EVERY. NIGHT. She has not missed a single night praying for me! (Her dad prays with her so he knows for a fact.) She is my prayer warrior. I need a lot of prayers. I’ve never asked her to pray for me and I’ve never really given her specific prayer requests. Yet, she finds time to acknowledge my existence and present it before God. WOW. She is such an example to follow. She’s been doing this since she was 6yrs old. Brothers and sisters in Christ, we need to STEP. IT.UP. and be prayer warriors for one another.

a pretty boy...

we met. 
we talked. 
HE <-- asked if I wanted a picture. 

the whole story is better in person. 

I said yes. 

Dave Franco....will forever be known as "James Franco's little bro" 

so we're chill. 

and it was one of those few moments where I was totally dumbfounded, didnt know what to say... starstruck for the win. 

I happen to admire him a lot so I think that had to do a lot with it. 

did I mention we're dating.........not. he's the same height as me. 
one thing I did withhold from saying was "gosh, you look so much taller on screen"
