the way of the Lord is good...

"He knew her lack. He knew her vulnerability. He knew the ways Ruth had been hurt and the things she’d lost. And He provided her just what she needed at just the time she needed it. It may not have been the life she would have chosen, if she had her way. But it was the way of the Lord, and the way of the Lord is good..."

like the stars

// friends are like the stars, you can't always see them but you know that they're there // 

for my dad

He's always there for me. Always listens attentively to me. Holds me when I cry. Prays for me. Makes me laugh. Laughs at my jokes (however dumb they may be). Lets me break out in song when he's in the middle of a sentence. Does silly things with me. Lets me drive his car. Challenges me. Lets me take the first scoop out of the peanut butter jar. And always points me to Jesus. 

Papa, you're my favoritest dad in the whole wide world!  Love you.

Love,

Me

I'm so thankful for these people - they make my heart so happy and full 

leave it all behind, and come to the Well...

Leave it all behind, Leave it all behind, 

Leave it all behind, Leave it all behind,

I have what you need, But you keep on searchin, 

I've done all the work, But you keep on workin, 

When you're runnin on empty, And you can't find the remedy, 

Just come to the Well.

You can spend your whole life, Chasin what's missing, 

But that empty inside, It just ain't gonna listen.

When nothing can satisfy,And the world leaves you high and dry, 

Just come to the Well

And all who thirst will thirst no more, 

And all who search will find what their souls long for, 

The world will try, but it can never fill, 

So leave it all behind, and come to the Well

So bring me your heartNo matter how broken, 

Just come as you are, When your last prayer is spoken, 

Just rest in my arms a while, You'll feel the change my child, 

When you come to the Well
