This is Love.

Was it love at first sight?
Did you dive right in and do everything together?
Did you talk late at night?
Write letters?

Im not quite sure what kind of love you're thinking about, but I am talking about the one true KING.
Did you just fall in love with the thought of him, what he did for you, do you talk to him, and read his love letters?

You've never glimpsed Love, until you've seen HIS kind of love.

There are no words I can say.
I hope the tears are pooring and you're broken.
He loved you THAT much.
He suffered.
He took all that pain for YOU.
Because he Loves.

If someone took a bullet for you, you'd do ANYthing to repay them and thank them.
Yet, our God took HELL from us, he Saved us from HELL and we dont care in the slightest nor do we even try to thank him.

This is christianity. The love of the Father, and our complete, daily surrender to him and his will for our lives.

And Even If;

Y'all. its been a while. Holy cow. I was talking with a friend this morning about life and this waiting game of a season that the Lord has me in right now. Waiting for graduation, waiting to know what the rest of my life is going to look like, waiting on contract updates and internship approvals, waiting on interviews, Creation studies to END (forever and ever amen), leases to run out, May to arrive and my next chapter to begin. The whole while I was sitting there discussing the frustration yet Hope that I had in this season I just kept replaying the lyrics to one of my favorite songs "Take courage my heart, stay steadfast my soul He's IN the waiting" He's there friends. He's with you. He's fighting for you, with you. Look next to you, allow yourself to sense His presence as He runs this race right beside you, pushing you on until the very end. Who am I to rush this season the Lord has purposed in my life for go...

We are Family.

All my brothers, sister and me.   A week after leaving my sweet family, they came to visit. Guess they missed me ;)   Their 24 hours here flew by but it was such a refresher and so nice after my first week back. And it makes the month before I see them again, not seem so crazy long.   My siblings and dad had never been to the campus, so we enjoyed touring around and even getting some fun filled hours at the Snowflex. The boys LOVED it. And I just loved them being here to do it with me for once. :)   It was the perfect family weekend.   Now back to those books..   Have a great week y'all! -Austyn

Plans for prosperity and hope..

This morning as Stephen and I listened to Bruno Mars' song "Marry you" and talked sweet talks of pure preciousness he drew my future family. As he drew me, blue as i'll ever be. and my sweet husband. and the bunk beds, treehouses and basements. the staircase leading to the sky and my huge house that really isnt needed.   he also drew two black kids. My Ethiopian babies! Oh how i dream of adopting from Ethiopia. And how precious that he drew them not even knowing i did want to adopt. Seriously, how precious are those little Ethiopian prince/ princess (s). Only two because "i dont want you to work too hard" Be still my heart.   -Austyn :)
