float

Okay, let's do this


Turn it up so I can feel it
Turn it up so I can be near it
Baby says she's got that feeling
Moonwalking on the ceiling



It's alright
It's alright

Turn it up so I can feel it
Loud enough so I can get near it
Baby's in that slow emotion
Moonwalking on the ocean



It's how we float, yeah
Feet ain't even touching ground
It's how we float, yeah
Flying at the speed of sound
I'm in orbit like a jet pilot
Ain't no gravity to try to fight it
It's how we float, yeah
We ain't never coming down




Don't you need someone to lean on?
Don't you need that taste of freedom?
It don't take no education
All you need's an invitation

It's alright



It's how we float, yeah
Feet ain't even touching ground
It's how we float, yeah
Flying at the speed of sound
I'm in orbit like a jet pilot
Ain't no gravity to try to fight it
It's how we float, yeah
We ain't never coming down


Away from the crowds where you realize
The herd's insecure or the free mind
So don't let em tell you what to feel like
They can't bring me down, can't bring me down, yeah
Money gonna run away hardest
Money gonna leave you broken-hearted
But money can't finish what we started
It can't bring me down, can't bring me down, yeah



It's how we float, yeah
Feet ain't even touching ground
It's how we float, yeah
Flying at the speed of sound
I'm in orbit like a jet pilot
Ain't no gravity to try to fight it
It's how we float, yeah
We ain't never coming down









feet ain't never coming down

4.10.2016


Today I went to a park with a new friend from work. And made three new friends. We had such a great time outdoors enjoy sunshine, laughter and rest. Jesus is so good, so good. I'm learning to let go of so many expectations I put on myself and just live the life of whatever he brings. 

Life may turn out differently then what we had imagined when we were young. But if our hearts are in the right place, no matter what, it'll be good. 

So enjoy these iPhone, bad quality photos. Because it's the moments that matter.

3.11.2016

The moments, days, weeks, months, life screams by me and I stand with a loss of words to write down. I'm always searching for ways to express my soul, grasping at quotes and lyrics and scriptures that glimpse of ways He whispers daily to me. It often blurs together and I look back and... it's already March? When did that happen?

Life as an adult is an interesting thing. It's full of surprises, but somehow I don't mind at all.
I love the gifts that years give back to you. It's definitely a give and take.

Time and years, they mature, heal, slow.
Even through the flying by.

I don't even know what I am trying to say here. But what I am trying to say is God is good, and I know that from first hand experience. Even if the years aren't turning into what we always thought or imagined they would look like, when I rest in giving my lives and future to God, whatever comes my way is a beautiful thing.

It doesn't always look beautiful in the moment - oh, ask me how I know this.
I've had my fair share of crappy days, headaches, and anger, and wanting to just let go because life really does stink sometimes.
But looking back... He's weaving a beautiful fabric of stories. Of stories that are alive, with feeling.
Flushes of love and excitement, and hearts that burn with anger and very real questions of why did this happen. Little joys, laughter, darkness and doubt, they're woven in too. True followers of Jesus don't hide their scars, they bring them to the light. Because by His stripes we are healed. His wounds, his bruises, the very real weight He carried on His shoulders as He hung on the cross.
The cross is the climax of the gospel, not something we should hide and shove under the rug.
The crosses in our lives are testimonies, are living breathes of moments that we can speak and share without shame and say, "See this? This is what God did through brokeness."

Years bring beauty.
Good, bad, joy, pain.
All combined, can I just say, it's a wonderful life.

2016

It's so hard to believe it's already a new year once again. Crazy how time flies. 
Some of my "New Years resolutions" would be...

Blog more. (I think I only posted two times on the blog this year.)
Photograph more. 
Exercise more. 
Enjoy anything and everything that God brings into life this year. 
Get to know Jesus more.
