More than thankful that Herschel and I have changed so dramatically over the course of our relationship. Emotionally, of course. What? Have we changed physically or something? Weird. BAM. Oh, I see it. I just got hit in the face from one of my own cheeks in this photograph.

An intimate relationship with the Lord is all you...
How refreshing is it to know that God doesn’t require us to understand all of His complexities? God makes it simple or us. All that is required is to know that He loved us enough to send His only Son to pay the debt of our sins and we must then put our trust in Him. We do not need to be biblical scholars in order to intimately connect with the King of Kings, though the extra knowledge may...

movin' on up to 2012
I feel weird as I’m writing this. For one, I am not feeling eloquent in the least bit and for two, a lot has happened in the last year. I’m not so sure I am ready for another one… haha. I say that as if I had a choice.
On January 1st, 2011… I thought that 2010 was a rough year. Funny how life is… 2011 was no easier on me. It was by far one of the greatest...

Remembering.
it’s been so long since I’ve actually blogged on this thing. I was just reading my new year post from last year, which is considerably smaller than every year before that in the past.
