While We Wait

I have been asking God to work a miracle for almost a year now, and sometimes I honestly want to give up because I can't see him moving. Part of me is tempted to believe that if I just learn the thing he's trying to get me to learn, then God will finally do what … Continue reading While We Wait →

College Destroys Brain Cells

Okay, college doesn't actually destroy brain cells. It just sometimes feels like it.

Worship in Church

Worship services have been slightly awkward for me for a while. I have a joint problem, and standing for the whole of the singing during a church service injures me.

I have at least one nightmare basically every night. It's been occurring for so long that I don't remember when it started, and I seriously thought it was my new normal. Even though people act concerned or freaked out when I tell them that, I thought it was perfectly normal because I have a generalized … Continue reading Praying in Jesus’ Name →
