Hello dear friends!

I haven’t been on tumblr in a long time but i haven’t forgotten. I am working on a lot of things in my faith life right now and could definitely be doing a lot better. But thanks be to God He is always there and is constantly pulling my heart. I am so grateful for many things today. It is a beautiful day where I am and I just feel very at peace and content. I have been very confused and conflicted lately so I am just letting it be today. I opened up the Bible again and a lot of verses spoke to my heart so here we go!:

“You have seen all that the Lord your God has done to all these nations for your sake, for it is the Lord your God who has fought for you.”

- Joshua 22: 3

ok I am off to take a little nap and go for a jog but i will be back soon! :) P.S I am taking a photography course this semester so soon i will be able to use many of my my own photographs! YAY!

” Only be careful to observe the commandment and the law that Moses, the servant of the Lord commanded you, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commandments, and to cling to Him and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul.”

-Joshua 22:5

” My strength now is as my strength was then.”

-Joshua 14: 11

My posts have been few and far between. One reason for this is because I have reached a milestone in my scripture reflection. yay! Joshua is a book of the Bible that I have never read before. I have no notes on it’s pages, no verses highlighted. It is allowing me to really dive deeper into my daily reading. This verse stood out to me tonight because when I read it, I began to think about my faith throughout my lifetime. When I was a child, I was fearless, bold and strong in my faith, no doubt, no timidness. I don’t know if I am truly able to say that my strength in my faith is as it was then, but I am praying about it and working on it every single day.

On another note, about a week a go a post popped up on the radar that i have been trying to find again ever since. It was a photograph of a couple sitting on top of a bus. There were balloons on the side and i think it said something like “you were my happy ending” at the top. does anyone out there reading this know what i’m talking about? If you do pleasssseeee send me the link. thanks! :)

” So now O Israel, what does the Lord, your God require of you? Only to fear the Lord your God,to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and His decrees that I am commanding you today for your own well being.”

-Deuteronomy 10: 12

I think that the most important words in this verse is “for your own well being.” Sometimes it is easy to look at everything that we can’t do as Christians, when God is really doing what is best for his children.

-Deuteronomy 7:6

I know that at least for me, at this stage in my life (the college years) it has been quite a challenge and a struggle to put God first. This verse really speaks to me because it reminds me what an honor and a blessing it really is to be chosen to serve
