"When you gaze upon beauty, purpose is sure to...
Not just any kind of beauty.
The author of beauty. The perfection of perfect. It’s in this place that we discover there’s a story being told with our life. A grand masterpiece of a story, given to us by our creator.
And its here that the weight of our call is felt. Our story isn’t finished. We have much to do.
But here’s the catch. As my dad has said, “If purpose comes first then our hearts...

Dear Future Husband,
I don’t want chocolates or giant stuffed bears or mushy cards. I don’t want you to blow a hundred bucks on the fanciest restaurant in town. I just want to spend time with you. I already know that you love me- you don’t have to give me a life-size stuffed bear holding a heart to prove it. Let’s go to our favorite hole-in-the-wall Chinese place and do random adventurous...

perspective.
Me (in a tizzy) : God, can I ask you something?
GOD: Sure.
Me: Promise you won't get mad?
GOD: I promise.
Me (frustrated): Why did you let so much stuff happen to me today?
GOD: What do you mean?
Me: Well I woke up late,
GOD: Yes.
Me: My car took forever to start,
GOD: Okay....
Me (growling): At lunch, they made my sandwich wrong and I had to wait
GOD: Hmmmm..
Me: On the way home, my phone went dead, just as I picked up a call
GOD: All right.
Me (loudly): And to top it all off, when I got home, I just wanted to soak my feet in my foot massager and relax, but it wouldn't work. Nothing went right today! Why did you do that?
GOD: Well let me see..... the death angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send one of the other angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that.
Me (humbled): Oh...
GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that might have hit you if you were on the road.
Me (ashamed): ............
GOD: The first person who made your sandwich today was sick and I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work.
Me (embarrassed): Oh.....
GOD: Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give a false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them so you would be covered.
Me (softly): I see God.
GOD: Oh and that foot massager, it had a short that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in the dark.
Me: I'm sorry God.
GOD: Don't be sorry, just learn to trust me.........in all things, the good and the bad
Me: I will trust you God.
GOD: And don't doubt that my plan for your day is always better than your plan
Me: I won't God. And let me just tell you God, thank you for everything today.
GOD: You're welcome child. It was just another day being your God and I love looking after my children.

HE says- "I want you. I want all of you. Forever....
Words
freedomfound:
I want words to mean more to me
I want to feel like You’re listening
Like You’re really here, listening
I get so caught up in useless words and all I want to do is hear You speak
I want Your words to mean more to me
