Guide my eyes to You, oh Lord. Let me never forget the beauty of who You are; for I am a man of little memory, boasting in Your love one day, and wallowing in my despair the next. You are the hope I seek, You are the joy I long for, and You are the victory that I have been fighting for. You are love, and I was born for that love, so You have led me to the places where Your love is most known; let me never forget those lands, because I want to bring them with me. Conquer me daily, so that I may know of Your strength. Lead me constantly, so that I may memorize Your way. Speak to me in my pain, so that I may feel Your peace in the shadow lands. Let me love no other name above Your own, for You are the only thing that will truly love me back, and I long to be loved by He who is love. My joy will be found in You, God, because You are the homeland of joy. I am bound forever to Your goodness, teach me to bring others into this blessed place, so that we may understand why the worlds were created. Make known to our hearts why You tore the vail and departed the void, for we cannot comprehend Your eternal desire for us, but oh how we long for it none the less. You are so good, and my heart is Yours; forever and always.

When I am not diligent in spending time with God, tracing his reality in the details of my life, it isn’t that I have denounced my faith, but something much worse–I am not experiencing His fullness in my life, and naturally, it feels a lot like emptiness. Neglecting His relevance constructs an illusion of emptiness and ushers in the most conflicting emotions. Pressing my hands over my eyes, I ask why I can’t see him; pressing my hands to my ears, I ask why I can’t hear him; pushing my hands into my pockets, I ask why I can’t feel him. Ignoring him will cultivate ignorance, and ignorance will breed ambivalence. Why would I hesitate to run wild in the realm of His reality? He is my clarity, He is my sanity, He is my security. So why do I coax myself out of bed in the morning without feeling the weight of his beauty, without sifting through the details for his fingertips. without smelling the way His truth lingers on my cheeks, without listening for the comforting sound of His nearness? Why am I trying to believe that the idea of Him is enough when He has made himself available to me? This is as absurd as standing in the rain during winter and being content to think about a warm bath instead of walking inside, filling the tub, and getting in. Why do we choose narrative over reality? Why do we prefer the religious affiliation over the invasive presence of his love?

Call a boy a gentleman and watch his shoulders straighten. Call a girl a lady and watch her spirit turn graceful. Humanity was brought into existence by God speaking words into the void of the universe. We tend to become what we are called.

Just remember that sometimes, the way you think about a person isn’t the way they actually are.

Why am I discouraged? Why am I restless? I should trust you, Lord. I will praise you again because you help me, and you are my God.

Hello, darling, hope you doing fine. So, my mother told me that a "Christian guy" is not the same as a "man of God". I'd like to see what's your point of view, because I don't really know what's the difference.

Good night, beloved!

Well, your mother is completely right.

A Christian guy might say he loves you, but a Man of God will love God more than you. A Christian guy might text you Bible verses, or have a tattoo of them, but a Man of God will live out those verses and have them written on his heart. A Christian guy might go to church, but a Man of God will see that his highest calling is to give Christ glory. A Christian guy might “accidentally” compromise your virtue, but a Man of God will protect it above all else. A Christian guy might be super attractive, but a Man of God will have a beautiful heart, regardless of his looks. A Christian guy might take you out, but a Man of God will hold you up before God in his prayers.

And you, beloved, just be the woman of God who will attract a man like that. May The Lord bless you! ✨

I have more troubles than I can count. My sins are all around me, and I can’t find my way. My sins outnumber the hairs on my head, and I feel weak. Please show that you care and rescue me. Hurry and help me!

Don’t worry about everything around you. That’s my job.
