on my mind: easter & other thoughts.

hello friends! happy may!

i'm so happy it's finally feeling like spring :) i wanted to post for easter & then never did it so here are my late easter thoughts + more things i've been learning lately.

easter

find me a more perfect leader / a better source of hope / a better example of love / a better teacher / a better explanation of life / a better plan for goodness / a better judge / a better power to rely on / a better person to praise

john 6:66-69

to who shall we go? for You have the words of eternal life. we have believed & we have come to know that You are the Holy One of God.

Jesus isn’t just the cross. He died for us & overcame death & sin but He did so much more than that. He suffered everything possible so He would be the perfect leader, judge & friend. He made it possible to live again. life is only the beginning, it’s a gift but He overcame every part of it. every physical body will be healed perfectly, every soul mended, every heart loved. He will make everything right & beautiful & good. we don’t just worship because He suffered, He died, or because He saves. we worship because He is the reason there is more purpose, hope & goodness than despair.

everything else

all leaders are dealers in hope

ask yourself—why am i afraid?

or will everything change, like it tends to do

education is yours to obtain! no one else can gain it for you

the glory of God is intelligence

education is the difference of wishing you could help someone & being able to help them
