I love it when Tumblr folk find new ways to explore this wonderful site lol.
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and...”
– Philippians 4:6-7
Ah Scripture, beautiful and applicable, quenching thirst. Why is it so hard to lay it all down… My anxiety, my apathy. How do I let go of it all in faith… I want to be constantly thankful, at peace, in prayer…
“Change my heart oh God, make it ever new;...
Easter Hangover: The Day After, When Jesus Stops... →

Fresh from the grave, Jesus was the hottest thing since sliced manna.
Thomas fell over, Peter jumped in the water, Mary ran, random angels appeared. When the Bible says that some of the 500 who saw Jesus were “now asleep,” I’d imagine some of them died from plot-twist-embolism.
But the day after?

Context is key. Different quotations from different writings, etc. + knowledge that this man was a literary mastermind as well as a keen observer of human nature. Not that his word was or is law; simply that it’s...

Fervent patience
I like the seemingly oxymoronic. It’s really all about balance, isn’t it?
“We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade the presence of God. The world is...”

After reading this quote, I’m reminded of Jacob and how he wrestled with God until daybreak, so presumably all night—wow, and would not let go until he received God’s blessing (Genesis 32:22-32). Although Jacob didn’t know that the man was God until after he...

I know. I’m so mature. But it’s Pooh bear! Who doesn’t love ♪Pooh bear, Winnie the Pooh bear♬?
Plus, this is a current truism. These 2AM+ study hours… Nights-before-midterms at their finest. (But really, I need to work on my procrastination. Go go away -ay -ay...

If you’re repenting from sin, that’s all you’re doing: running from it.
Suddenly you have a lot of idle free time and you’re not sure what to do.
How about run back to that sin?
Because that’s what most people do. They don’t know what else to do.
I suppose we could create a Christian subculture ghetto marginalized to the fringes of the mainstream, complete...
THIS... True Accountability. →
neeesh:
WHAT IS ACCOUNTABILITY? Accountability is an active participation in giving and receiving from other believers. - Teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness - It’s the key to understanding your sin (especially pride)
BAD FORMS OF ACCOUNTABILITY
1. Eating together - Meeting up with each other and spending time together is not accountability. The little prayer before...
Soli Deo Gloria
Felt a sense of freedom and boldness after sharing the gospel with a brother in Christ (almost wrote ‘in arms’ haha) to an unbelieving senior at my university tonight.
God is so good.
It’s mind-blowing to think that He’s working even in the midst of my weaknesses-fear of man, fear of rejection, self-consciousness, insecurities, anxiety (oh this never-ending list)-no, that...
“Not being able to fully understand God is frustrating, but it is ridiculous for...”
– Francis Chan (via herdailyprocess)
So true… Must keep in mind at all times! As I’ve heard before, God doesn’t fit into the boxes we conceive for Him—and we can’t move these boxes around to justify our own means and ends. We aren’t able to understand God in all...
