give me a break

December 11th. 

FINALLY

A collective sigh of relief sweeps over the entire campus of the Word of Life Bible Institute as we are hereby released from the cramped quarters of our dorm rooms and welcomed back into our homes, a land flowing with milk and honey, a bountiful blessing, a place of rest.

Rest? What's that? Is that allowed? Does it hurt?

I may or may not have compiled a list of about 130,000 things that I want to do when I get home, including, but not limited to: write and record music // pen my novel // take photographs // make Christmas cards // watch the Lizzie McGuire movie // eat cheese.

Seriously, though, I've never been this excited for break. I never thought Bible college would be this hard. And I'm more than a *tiny* bit done with learning about my sin. Today, I choose to live in the freedom and joy that grace provides. Love has come, Love has won, and Love will sanctify me through and through. So I'm not worrying about it. 

"Home is where one starts from." ~ T. S. Eliot

>> I, too, have no idea what this picture of me with a pine cone has to do with the announcement of Break, glorious, glorious Break, but it's one of the only ones I had, don't judge. #pineconeface #natureisfun #takemebacktothetrail
