Today I realized how much truth Matthew 6 has. In all the struggles that I face, whether it be school, family, friends, or personal stuff, the chapter covers so many applicable principles and themes. The first subtitle is “Giving To The Needy.” Although it does specifically talk about it, I do think it refers to [...]
My feet are cold. I’ve realized that when I’m sitting in my room and my feet are cold, it’s more effective to warm them by actually taking my socks off. I’m not really sure how it works though, since supposedly adding layers would help keep the warmth in. I can only explain it in one [...]
It Is Well With My Soul
Verse 1:
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say,
“It is well, it is well with my soul.”

“Love, and do what thou wilt”
-St. Augustine
Translation of John Chang:
“Love God, and do whatever the hell you want. Just always keep in mind who you’re representing with your life.”
I hold onto all the withering branches. With every last hope, the point of every turn and saddle of every mountain deny any and everything beyond all transparency. I dare not look down to see what lies below. Perhaps it is merely solid ground inches below my feet, or possibly an ocean, waiting for my [...]
We are such a greedy generation. Everything is here and now. But, I’m done with Lit Honors and I’ve written enough essays about instant gratification and whatnot, so I really don’t want to write yet another essay about society’s superficial satisfaction. I mean, sure I could relate all the things the Bible teaches about materialism [...]
