#bible verse #reminder
<3, kristi.
I like to think i can fly & I never color inside the lines.
Everyone is different. Some people find respite in the adrenaline of exercise. Others are reinvigorated through singing or dancing. and me? i feel refreshed by a reminder of old, friendly truth.
1 Peter 1:3-4
In His great mercy, He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you…
A verse that I’ve grown up hearing— a verse that shines with hope and gratitude. These words alone offer me respite and reinvigorate me in unspeakable ways. To me, it’s a wonder that despite all my mistakes, despite all my errors, despite everything I’ve done wrong, His perfect love still endures.
I’m honored.
@11 months ago with 2 notesJames 4:12
There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?
don’t judge a book by its cover.
for the first time in a while, these words have resonated with something deep within me. It’s made me realize that I do not want to be the person, quick to judge, unwilling to give chances, stubborn to really see.
because I also never want to be that person-
judged, rejected, and misunderstood.
@11 months ago with 3 notesCollege has been a tremendous change for everyone, new place, new people, new identity. When I started college, I embraced this new feeling, I welcomed it. But in some ways, I hated change.
I fear change because it’s foreign and unfamiliar. I don’t want to be caught unaware and vulnerable. I think a little part of each and every one of us is afraid of what could happen when we are completely relocated, and yes, I admit that even though college is a blank slate, a secret part of me was scared to know how things would play out.
To a certain degree, that fear has been assuaged. I have wonderful friends, a supportive family, and this fostering environment that calls for me to try harder and succeed. This first year has been a year of trials and tribulations, fleeting success and heartbreaking failures, but to enjoy one means to endure the other.
Everyday I have to remind myself that I’m not in this alone. Friends, family, and the Father. In the end that is all I need.
Psalm 55:22
“Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you;
He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.”
I am not alone.
