WHAT THE?

Do you think that Mary made Jesus brownies?

-my mom after my bro's pleading for that delicious brown gooey-ness through his onw interesting brand of logic

so i found this on my myspace wall from a guy i know...

Dani the girl is singing songs to me beneath the marquee of her soul, by the way i tried to say i'd be there waiting for.......

yeah... so what do you think?

we're headed up to grandma's ...for.... what i hope does not turn into a small version of WWIII, Hell, or some combination of the two. Anyway... that means internet will not be an option tomorrow and i already has this picked out. it's great... makes me think of a few people, but again.... anyway

    "Like the traveler, we have been running through that jungle, always imagining the angry face of the Judge who will sentence us. We inagine Him to be in league with Death, our Pursuer. 
    Yet it turns out that the Judge has been pursuing for love rather than vengeance. His face is compassionate rather than angry. And finally He pays the highest price imaginable so that He might provide that statement of justification that will allow restoration into His own family."
- David Jeremiah, Captured By Grace

long but definately worth it

Hermie Westerman died today.

We will all miss him (especially since most of you never got to meet him).

He was a good hermit crab.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn't make sense. NO CHEATING!



How do you feel today?
Love Changes Everything

so apparently i either felt 1/2 creative or daringly bitter.... (boys tend to do that to me)
but this is from a while ago... not real sure exactly when..te he he.. or who

Somewhere in between loving you and hating you

I lost my mind

Somewhere in between seeing what you want me to be and seeing what everyone else sees

You went blind

I may not be sent from Heaven, but I'm not your Hell

I'm just somewhere in between

o all-knowing jones soda bottle top, what is your life lesson for us today??

on another note!!!
i got fun new clothes!!! i wore em to church today!!

not sure i like that picture... anywho...

i don't do the song lyrics thing often... but its what i've been feeling lately. I hurt for the people of Israel and Lebanon and i know it won't get better til our Lord comes back for us and it won't really get better then. My heart just over flows out of this song excerpt.

"Who told us we'd be rescued?
What has changed and why should we be saved from nightmares?
We're asking why this happens to us who have died to live?
It's unfair. 

This is what it means to be held.
How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life and you survive.
This is what it is to be loved and to know that the promise was when everything fell we'd be held."

from Natalie Grant's Held 

Moms squirmed uncomfortably...

... in fact she almost died.

 To put it lightly...

she was NOT thrilled....

because well...

i have crabs.

brent gave them to me...

and they are really cute!!!

this is their home!

this is Shellie.

Come here Shellie! Isn't she so smart?

This is Hermie! He's so strong! See the pincher?
