This, too, will shape me.

Hi there :]
My name is Ruthie.
I am a realist who wishes
on shooting stars.
And GOD is writing
my life story.

“Faith, on the other hand, is the exact opposite of fear. Faith is trusting God: Trusting Him to pick me up when I fall, trusting Him to make my path clear, trusting Him to be bigger than my many shortcomings, trusting Him to shower me with His unfailing love, trusting Him—period.” ~Trena Reed

Lord, be that Someone.

Be the ONLY One.

To the people who love you, you are beautiful already. This is not because they’re blind to your shortcomings but because they so clearly see your soul. Your shortcomings then dim by comparison. The people who care about you are willing to let you be imperfect and beautiful, too.

I can’t see why.

Good thing we don’t put our faith in emotions.

“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” -Jer 17:9

To My Future Wife:

tomyfuturespouse:

Sometimes I want to slap you silly! Metaphorically of course. Why do you have so much fear? Fear is not a good friend to make. She will rob you of everything beautiful in the world. Let your hair down. Let joy be your companion. Let love melt your beat up heart. Let peace flood your most personal deep places.

Why do I feel like this was directly written at me? Hmm?

Our victory never comes from our emotions or our intellect. Our victory comes by refusing to judge by what our eyes see or our ears hear and by trusting that what God has promised will come to pass. We wlll never know Christ’s victory in its fullness until we stop reacting humanly to our circumstances.
