I’ve been taking the past few days to reflect on my semester. I haven’t had time to think about the whole of 2011 yet, but that post will come tomorrow (technically still 2011 central time). This Fall ’11 was the best semester so far, I think. It was a time of growth and love and [...]

I’ve been going through a pretty difficult time. I don’t want to get into the details here, but feel free to call/email me if you don’t already know. Don’t expect a quick reply because I’m taking in those messages reeeeeeally slowly. This post won’t mean much if you don’t know anything, so spark notes version [...]
Above and Beyond

I am the sort of person who always wants to be there for others but is afraid/doesn’t want to impose this same need onto others. There have been some tough moments in the past 2 weeks that I don’t think I could have survived without my family. Not my genetic family that’s back home, but [...]

So it was mighty quick but God told me why He loves me so much. I was struggling with the wrong question. It’s not about me and how I’m so unworthy. It’s about His character. This song told me so and blessed me so. See, I told you not to worry about giving me encouragement [...]
This Moment

The lessons I’ve been learning since my birthday seem to have been preparing me for this moment. 1) Another day: For the first time I think, I didn’t really feel like I needed all the attention on my birthday. Usually I have to fight the urge to tell everyone that it’s my birthday, but this [...]

Cause You are the target. So my last post (No More Hiding) got just a few hits. The most clicks I’ve gotten in one day on my blog was 52 views and that was the day I emailed everyone I knew to check out my new blog. On October 31, 2011, 169 people clicked my link. [...]
No More Hiding

Everything I’ve been hiding about me is about to be written here for everyone I love, haven’t met, will meet, etc to read on this public blog right now. So two major things I’ve struggled with that I don’t tell anyone but have had a major heart change to tell everyone: I am a junior [...]
My Humble King

Hello world and all who inhabit it. (not sure where that’s from…) I finished reading The Supernatural Ways of Royalty by Kris Valloton and Bill Johnson (of Bethel Church). They summed it up pretty well in the subtitle: it was about discovering your rights and privileges of being a son or daughter of God. I’ve [...]

I don’t know if I’ve talked about it before in my blog, but I never had Christian community until I came to Tufts. At least not like this. I never had people my age who were followers of Christ, so TCF was definitely a different experience for me. I saw what it looked like to [...]
