Last name: ever, first name: greatest

TODAY IS A GOOD DAY. I just dominated (hopefully) my Biology test, Drake (yes, Jimmy from Degrassi...aka one of my most favorite shows) is coming to FU tonight, and my toes will be in the sand in less than 24 hours.

I honestly am not sure where this blog will take me. It'll be a journey.

Lately I've been thinking about God's grace. It truly is amazing. I don't deserve it, but He gives it freely. I am completely covered, saturated in His mercy. It brings healing, peace, cleansing, truth, trust. And all I have to do is ask for it. How awesome is that? He opens His arms and allows me to run into them, no matter where I am running from. And, as soon as I ask for His forgiveness, all that I have seen and done is gone. Life is full of temptations and traps. He knows. He experienced it. That's another awesome thing. Jesus was tempted by Satan, exactly like I am. He rose above it and told Satan to get behind Him. He gets it. Because of Him, my chains are gone. I've been set free. My God, my Savior has ransomed me. And that is SO cool.


A friend of mine retweeted this quote the other day:

"We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures." - Thornton Wilder

I love my dear, sweet friends. I am not ready to be without them. Y'all are so much more than wonderful :)
