This is Me

I am only sure of a few things. Jesus saves. Kansas is my home. I am intoxicated by the beauty of the sun. Oh, and I love you.

Oh, how sweet it is to trust in Jesus.


"I think God's people are at their strongest when they are broken, because God can use them to do incredible things when they say, 'All I can do is rely on God.'" - Mark Stuart


I am continually amazed by how God uses broken people. 
How He takes messed up lives and makes beautiful creations. 
How He uses shame and mistakes to lead sinners to the Cross. 
How He turns fear and trembling into unshaken faith. 

He is indescribable, yet there are so many ways to name Him. 

He is Father.
Counselor.
Strong-tower.
Awesome.
Unfathomable.
Son.
Redeemer.
Jehovah Jirah.
Messiah.
Unbreakable.
Lamb of God.
Able.
Jesus Christ.
Unchangeable.
Faithful.
I AM. 
Saviour.
Forgiver.
Love.
King of Kings.
Kind.


and so so SO much more! The part that gets me the most though, He was made sin for us. The perfect One, was made sin FOR US! Doesn't that just grip you? Doesn't that just make you want to adore Him all the more? It does for me, oh, how it does for me! The love He has for all of us sinners drives me to want to love as much as He does. I want that for you too.

Why I love Summer.

I love summer because it brings people together. Everyone is better friends in the summer. I love to go to baseball games with friends on summer nights. I love to hang out at Sonic and laugh a lot, listening to the crickets sing. I love playing volleyball in the sand. I love driving in the car with the windows rolled down. I love staying in the pool all day. I love eating Popsicles for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I love summer group Sunday school class. I love summer sunsets. I love VBS. I love summer nights on the radio, singing as loud as I can. I love church on the lawn. 

That's why I love summer.
