So this is what it comes to
After my family & I took a month off everyday life to travel to California and the Philippines.
After seeing so many places, after seeing so many people and receiving a glimpse of their lives, and being in certain situations, and traveling to the Philippines and being wrapped by the way of life there, the culture there, and the way people are there, and tasting the difference between...

"because I love them"
heisjealousforme:
Alright, so I guess God wants me to write this now:) Haha. I pray He grants me the words as my brain is not even fully functioning right now.
I have been wrong about love, about choice, about anger, about God, about myself, about everything. I was in a very dark place before tonight. Legalism, self hatred, hatred in general…such a dark place.
Two weeks ago at youth group, I...

To live by faith.
I was extremely sick. For several days, I had a painful headache, a fever, and I felt like puking. To stack on top of that, I had been having a really awful time in the Philippines. It was scorching hot, there was a lot of bugs in the house I stayed in, it was dirty, and I continually felt exhausted every day when I barely did anything. And to stack on top of that even more, my grandma was giving...

The following was written by Ben Stein and recited...
flyingwithoutmywings:
My confession: I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejewelled trees, Christmas trees. I don’t feel threatened. I don’t feel discriminated against. That’s what they are, Christmas trees. It doesn’t bother me a bit when people say, ‘Merry Christmas’ to me. I don’t...

So I'll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
So I'll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours

CHRISTMAS.
For me, Christmas is less about partying, shopping, and presents. That’s a cliche statement, but I will clarify what I mean by that at the end of this post.
To me, Christmas is about 3 things. To me, Christmas is a time of:
Celebration
Remembrance
Thanksgiving
It is a time of celebration because we celebrate that we are saved from our sins, that we are free from all things related to...

Day 4: Your views on religion (I fell behind in...
tobemadenew:
I think religion is a terrible state of mind to slip into. I used to be so into religion but when I turned all to God and started working on giving Him it all, my perception of religion was stripped clean and my vision was cleared. Religion is of the people, not of God. I urge you to leave behind your ideas of religions and practices and instead, follow God and His Word. Religion...
