Matthew 18:6 (ESV)
“But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.”
A verse that I need to live out more. …Holden Caulfield would like this.
Hey, it's my cousin's birthday today.
It’s my cousin’s birthday.
I sent her a birthday text at 3:40 PM after I finished classes. She told me that my brother won. He called her at 12:00 AM. Was I mad? No.
I texted him saying: Wooow way to make the rest of the family look bad by calling unni at 12 Am.. Wooooow
He texts me back saying: Sarah if there’s one thing you need to learn about your brother its this. i make...
Phone Call
My dad rarely calls me. Typically, I can expect his calls because he only calls after he receives my e-mails. However, today I was taken aback by our talk today. The conversation held many sighs and defeated silences.. I know he was holding back a lot of what he really wanted to tell me. He ended with an “I’m working on it.” I know he feels guilty, but there’s really...
"They Will All Know Me"
“‘No longer will a man teach his neighbor or a man his brother saying ‘know the LORD,’ because they will all know me, from the least to the greatest,’ declares the LORD.
‘For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.’ This is what the LORD says, He who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by...

“This is an excerpt from Rick Joyner’s “The Call”. Words in quotations are what Jesus spoke to Rick Joyner. The words not in quotations are Rick’s thoughts. It moved me so deeply I wanted to share:
‘When My Father moves His little finger, the whole universe trembles. To shake the nations with your words does not impress anyone who dwells here. But when even...
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
— Ephesians 4:29 (NIV)

Like many of you reading this, I still remember exactly where I was 10 years ago today. I was a wide-eyed, naive freshman at the University of Pennsylvania on my way to Astronomy 101 (don’t ask me why I took this class), eager to embark on a journey that I hoped would one day result in happiness,…
John 15:13
“Now, we have inscribed a new memory alongside those others. It’s a memory of tragedy and shock, of loss and mourning. But not only of loss and mourning. It’s also a memory of bravery and self-sacrifice, and the love that lays down its life for a friend–even a friend whose name it never knew. “ - President George W. Bush, December 11, 2001
Conversation From September 1st, 2010
“I saw a lot of Christians fall away in college as I was starting to know God. I think a lot of times, people who had expectations of how church should be like from their past experiences were so harsh on new church and new people. It wasn’t about God. It was all about “how nice people were” or “how welcoming pastors are” and wishing everyone was different from...
I’ve gotten less personal on tumblr. I think I’ve been cowardice over revealing myself lately. Not that I have a problem with opening up, as most know, but I’m sometimes afraid of becoming vulnerable whilst no one is there to care.
Seeing the past few entries that I’ve posted, I see that I’ve been straying from noting things that have been meaningful to me as I have...

One glance. Two glances. Another… …And another.
I was at the Youth night. My first Youth night. The Lord has specifically called me to this unlovable sector of the church to use my testimony as a weapon of mass salvation (through Him, not I). My testimony is marked with countless tears, many things lost and given away, and much learned and experienced. In my flesh, it...
