Encouragement
I’m having trouble finding the verse about encouragement, but I know God commands us to encourage one another.
But you know what’s cool? When I encourage others, and then they encourage me for encouraging them. And then I’m encourage to keep encouraging them! It’s just a big circle of encouragement! :D I love encouraging people. : )

First of all, a young woman may pursue a relationship with the opposite sex only after she has embraced adulthood and it’s responsibilities. You’re going to be looking for a woman that’s not just beautiful, because she might just have no character whatsoever, but someone who has embraced adulthood. Biblical adulthood, she doesn’t want to...

Codename: Project Dragon
I’m really good at coming up with codenames. So if you’re ever in the market for one, let me know.
Anyway, I’m been getting to know a new friend I met recently, and I’m super excited about it. He’s really great, and it’s awesome to click with someone. But the key word here is friend. Easier said than done. He expressed possible interest in the future which is...

a funny little picture.

well, not super funny; don’t get your hopes up.
I’ve just been longing to write, and my mental pictures have been few lately. This is the best I’ve got!
I’ve started running again. And oh, it is nice. But this time instead of running on my beautiful (and killer) roads of hills, I’ve been using my dear sister’s treadmill. How kind she is to let me use it! Anyway, if you know...

Gah. Feelings. So many feelings!
Sometimes I don't understand my mom.
A few weeks ago she called me and said that she was proud of me for only waiting to date a Christian. And today, she asked me if I would ever want to be in a relationship with Chris. I told her about my struggles and that I didn’t want to have any sort of relationship with him. I told her that our relationship was abusive (not physically), and she pretty much cut me off. It seemed like she...

So I’m feeling kind of gross right now. My stomach’s being funky, I didn’t get much sleep last night and my eyes hurt, and I’ve got a small headache. But I just turned on Ascend the Hill, and immediately I felt a little better. God is so cool. Praise Him!
Gaaaaah. Stomach ache. Boo.
Ate too many raviolis for dinner.

Did I mention that Mother Nature decided to visit today? And I still ran 4 miles? Yeah. What up?

WOD 2/23
I did 4 miles outside today, and they were fabulous! I ran through Carle Park. It’s crazy how there were no cars around, no people, no bustle. It was amazing to be outside and get away from all the sounds and business of campus. I loved the quiet and the rhythm. I really felt God’s presence during that mile and a half of the run. It was beautiful.
My average pace was 11:14, so...

Things That Make Me Go "Awwww".
I just got a text from one of the Axiom guys, Kaleb. And he said, “You looked really great tonight, just sayin. :)” Awwwwww!!! Made my night. Thank you, Kaleb!

It just started raining. -___-
I’m supposed to run 4 miles today. -____- I hate running in the rain. Oh well. This is still going to be an awesome run because I say so! I planned a sweet new map, and I’m pumped! Let’s get it!
WOD 2/22
Today’s plan is to do interval training for 20ish minutes and then do Nike’s 15 minute ab workout. Today’s supposed to be a rest day, but my outdoors runs have been sooooo slow lately (11-11:30/min pace). I need to start doing some more interval training to get used to running a little faster.

Modesty, Lust, And Emotional Rape.
The slow thud of pounding bass through my bedroom walls shook me half-awake. I kept my face in my pillow and wondered why it was necessary for music this loud to be played in our family’s home at 7am on Saturday mornings. I pulled my comforter back over...

Time to kill this 3 mi run.
I’m kind of nervous about it, though. Also, it’s 34 degrees outside. And not that that’s super dooper cold, but it’s certainly not warm. Oh well. Gunna kill it anyway!

Two Words
I just returned from Winter Retreat 2012. It was a whirlwind, like usual. My brain is going to explode from all the Truth I’ve been trying to soak in the past 48 hours. Unfortunately, I have a lot of homework, so I’m just going to share a little story, and I’ll debrief more completely at a later date.
During our final message this morning, I was sitting behind a girl named...
