out of the wreck i rise.

i try my best to read oswald chamber's 'my utmost for his highest' every day. the language and vernacular is, at times, hard to get through, but for the most part it is incredibly encouraging and thought provoking. i keep going back to the entry from the nineteenth of may.


God's love is bigger than our own understanding.

"Either Jesus Christ is a deceiver and Paul is deluded, or some extraordinary thing happens to a man who holds on to the love of God when the odds are all against God's character. Logic is silenced in the face of every one of these things. Only one thing can account for it - the love of God in Christ Jesus. "Out of the wreck I rise" every time."

what a beautiful statement. that it's not about us. not even close. and His grace, his wonderful grace, we get it, no thanks to our merit, but luckily, because He is just so great and full of love.

what a relief.

summer is here. i want to ride my bike. but i need someone to ride with me. because im a little scared, traffic and such.

ok. i am taking a trip this summer. somewhere. i have no idea where yet. but im just going to do it. i'll let ya know.
