I think mother is trying to fatten me up for christmas dinner. That, or exams have made her food abnormally more enticing than it already is. She even said “Enjoy your food!” She never says that. Hmmm.. curious!
This is why I come to church.
Its remembering His love
When we’ve forgotten what He’s done
Its sharing stories
About how he rescued us
About how he reunited us
About how he brought us
Back to our creator.
To know Him.
To experience Him.
To follow Him.
I can’t deny the love that lives inside of me.
And I can’t deny that I want this love to live inside of you, too.
This is why I come to...

“‘Look here; isn’t one going to be allowed to go on painting?’
‘Looking comes first.’

Me: If I could sum up the last 4.5 years of university, it'd be that I learned everything about my hobbies and nothing about what I was to learn in school.
Cat: hahaha..
Me: You're laughing, but its tragically true...

Quiet time
Its the best when you come to God in prayer and He reminds you of a verse(s) you really need to hear in those moments. The past couple days its been the following:
“I took you from the ends of the earth,
from its farther corners I called you.
I said, ‘You are my servant’;
I have chosen you and have not rejected you.
