it’s crazy how you can look at someone everyday, 
& never realize what you are looking at or what they mean to you. 
& then suddenly, in an abrupt fashion, you finally hear them or see them the way He intended. 
you feel awed in just sharing the moment. 
you don’t doubt it, but you see them where they belong and you are speechless. 
simply speechless. 
 may we all make someone speechless.

with her fingers, the sun paints bewitching, diagonal patterns of warmth across these brick walls. with her perceptive touch, she sends light skipping across this rough, wooden floor—perfectly highlighting the rustic texture of well weathered planks. it captivates my soul.

as if this delightful panorama tableau was not enough to give me an ebullient countenance, my enjoyment was further heightened by the subsequent peculiarity: a stout fellow with an ash three-piece suit & an upturned, waxed mustache brought into existence a flawless twelve-ounce latte for my consumption.

i love this lovely city, portland.

I’m but a stranger here,
heaven is my home;
earth is a desert drear,
heaven is my home;
danger and sorrow stand
round me on every hand;
heaven is my fatherland,
heaven is my home.

what though the tempest rage,
heaven is my home;
short is my pilgrimage,
heaven is my home;
and time’s wild wintry blast
soon shall be over-past;
i shall reach home at last,
heaven is my home.

conclamatum-est:

ladies, 
refuse to buy into our culture’s obsession with being physically beautiful and sexually alluring. grace will make you beautiful, and it will attract truly godly men to you. make godliness & inward beauty your priority.

i love my little brother.
