routine

“What I know is not how things must be. What I know is often just a routine. So much of what we call knowledge is a habit of seeing.”

Interesting article.

Uncomfortable Grace

“There are moments in our lives when we are crying out for grace, not recognizing that we are getting it. We are not getting the grace of relief or the grace of release, because that is not the grace that we really need.

No, what we are getting is something we desperately need, the uncomfortable grace of personal growth and change. With the love of a Father, your Lord is prying open your hands so that you will let go of things that have come to rule your heart but will never satisfy you.”

-Paul David Tripp

This is my life right now.

Lost Generation by Jonathan Reed

I’m part of a lost generation

and I refuse to believe that

I can change the world

I realize this may be a shock, but

“Happiness comes from within”

is a lie, and

“Money will make me happy”

So in thirty years I’ll tell my children

They are not the most…

saw this on campus the other day. (:

I was at the TWLOHA meeting yesterday, and the girl said that she felt like she just really need to make these and put them around campus. Someone took a picture and put it on tumblr, and now people everywhere have seen it.

Made of awesomeness.

We should do this at Rice!

The girl who made this is my neighbor! One of the sweetest freshman I’ve ever met. I’m so encouraged by her. She’s such a great example of God’s love to all of us.
