So I’ve decided I love free airport internet. I think every airport should provide free internet at terminals. Since I have a little free time before I board, I thought I’d just ramble for a bit. San Diego was GORGEOUS!!!! yes it rained, yes I worked most of the time. but i still loved it! [...]

Genesis 32.22-32 God Wrestles with Jacob
A conversation with a friend last evening turned me towards this story. I read it. Then I read it again. It made sense, but at the same time it didn’t make sense. They wrestled, the man (God) touches Jacob’s hip and throws it out of socket, Jacob, although in pain, [...]
still going…
January 24, 2008
I’m still working on John. Last night picked up at 15:18 and read through the end of chapter 17.
“If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me before it hated you. If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. Because you do not belong to the world, [...]
Sacrifice Hurts
January 21, 2008
Following Christ is not safe. This isn’t the first time I’ve heard people say that. Even now, I say it with residual tones of bitterness. But also with a better understanding, I think, of the truth.

Beauty Like a Doe
January 15, 2008
“You see, beauty indwells every woman. Like a shy doe, it reveals itself for a moment, then fades back into cover. Usually it comes when she doesn’t know, when she isn’t trying to make it come.

i fear abandonment. i fear not being worth anything. i fear vulnerability (and, at the same time, lack of) even more. i dont [...]
fear.

I can see why proverbs 4.23 meant so much to my friend now, why she made such a big deal about it.
im afraid of appearances, i get spooked if a guy wants to hang out, one on one. they have the best of intentions, but people talk, and my heart… hurts. or has expectations… or [...]
