    The end of the semester approaching, and it seems I have learned the most in this year than I have in my entire life. But then again, I say that every year. 😊 This post will likely appeal most to traditional academics, but do not miss the point: We are all scholars of Grace. ————————————— “I have learned to write through the wrestling, to savor the struggle, and to settle here in this messy scholarship of Grace.” ______________________________ Link in bio.
    to all Christian preteens and teenagers out there: There are those people that are going to be there every now and then, when it’s convenient, when you are funny, when your popularity is sky-high, when you are happy and lighthearted, when its all fun and life is easy. Don’t discount those people. They are human, and they need Jesus just like you do. Hang out with them. Give them a listening ear. Have fun with them. Tell them about our sweet Jesus. But realize that this type of relationship is not the Christian friendship the Bible talks about. Authentic Christian friendship is far beyond casual. It *is* fun and giggle-filled and memory-making and goofy. But all the smiles reflect the intimate, persistent, and firm ground the friendship stands on. Christian friends draw close you are at your most sad, your most shameful, your worst self. They do not run away from the nitty-gritty, they run straight into it. That’s what this one has been doing since we were 15, and here we are, seven years later and thriving. She loves me when it is fun and when it is not. I love her when it’s fun and when it is not. We talk about the fun stuff and the hard stuff. If someone had told me I would be best friends with this chemistry major, band nerd, sarcastic, smart cookie years ago I would not have believed them. We could not be more opposite in so many ways, but she loves me loyally in all my forms, and I love her loyally in all her forms. And now I cannot imagine life without this sweet child. All that to say: do not cheat yourself or others of true friendship. And do not be discouraged when friendships seem no where to be found— Ask Him. He loves for iron to sharpen iron, and He is good to deliver.
    today was a regular Sunday where we worshipped the Lord and the sun shined & these ladies that I call friends are so precious and valuable in their soul and skin that I had to share their beauty with you, sweet reader. There are hard days and celebrating days, and I am thankful for ladies to share them with, and God who gave us to each other.
    I’m not as funny as he is, but you wouldn’t know that from this picture. . #hesaidimfunny
    laughing because today is a very important day: . . . HAPPY BIRTHDAY TAYLOR SWIFT ! 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼 . (so thankful for the dude that’s been a friend for two years & after three months, still hasn’t run away from my Taylor Swift mania. KS- you’re one of a kind.)
    Need a last minute Christmas present? I am selling prints of hymns, quotes, poems, etc. for $4 each! 🌲 I love giving my friends these prints of their favorite hymns, and I know they love receiving them. 🌲 Just send me how many you want, what you want on it. ....... CLARIFICATION: I will be doing these as much as I can before Christmas! Please do not hesitate to DM me and ask if you are unsure if I can do it/get it to you. I will send it via snail mail if necessary! 😊
