Not mine, but Your will be done.
1:50AM —As I sit here at my kitchen table studying for my last final exam, I can only think of how excited I am for what is to come after this semester comes to a close. Although I am not confident in how well I will do, I know I will be okay. I didn’t do too hot this semester but I’m not going to sweat it. —(whoa, breakthrough)— But why the sudden change in behavior?...

Lyrical Truth
“So underserving, only by Grace I have been saved.”

All I want to do is praise. James and I always think about walking into someone’s church just so we can praise, even if it’s a Monday. My gahhh. Cannot focus on school anymore. #givemeJesus

Growth
http://gloriayang.tumblr.com/post/39374338565/turning-pages-the-new-year I wrote this entry this past December 31st, 2012: my 20th birthday. I just read over it and I’m literally blown away right now at how much has been happening to me since then. I asked for answers, growth, God’s guidance — and here I am, in the midst of all of that being granted. Best birthday gift EVER. So far, 2013 has been...

Truly, truly:
I say to you that my God is able. He is love and I have Him. I have love in all it’s entirety. I need not say anything more. “…that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with the fullness of God.” ...

The Lord declares:
Just when I began to doubt myself and my major, plans of which will prosper me and could possibly be my future come rolling off the tongue of my kind & super helpful advisor, giving me a TON of hope. I realize that Jeremiah 29:11 happened in front of my face last Thursday. God is good. & He surely has a plan for me.

Footprints.
My mom and dad like to remind us how great a daughter my oldest sister Gao Nou was to them before she passed away: they tell us about how she would bend over backwards to take care of us kids and how she would prepare a meal for my parents to come home to after a long day at work. She would come home from school and begin to pick things up and clean before she even put her backpack down. She...

Turning Pages & the New Year.
I absolutely love that buzz that the new year brings; celebrating with the people we love most, counting down the minutes to the new year as the ball drops, and setting goals to become a better person so that we can continue to grow with every new year. It’s a huge deal for me especially, because every year, on [December 31st] the night of my birthday and on the Eve of a new year, I sit in...

“Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that...”
– I didn’t think this was possible, but I think I have finally found a quote that describes how James lives his life at least 90% accurate. It’s still not the perfect quote to describe him. I’m not sayin he’s not perfect..he’s just a ‘too-good-to-be-true’ type...

my family.
I’ve come to a conclusion that I have the best family ever. (: My parents are the most loving and supportive parents. They encourage us to further our education as much as we possibly can so that we can one day live at our happiest and without the burden of financial struggles as they have experienced. Whenever any of my brothers and sisters need anything, my parents give more to us than...

#Reasonswhyibelieve [series]
James and I are beginning a new photo series: Reasons Why I Believe. We have been taking photos for the past couple of years and through this have captured the things of this world that are taken for granted every single day: loved ones, seasons, nature, etc. The thing is..most of the time our pictures stay hidden. We decided to put our photos to use to remind us of how much we are blessed....

Spoken to:
I’m being heavily convicted lately to pray for my own relationship and for others’ to blossom into strong and faithful relationships. I couldn’t understand why at first, out of nowhere, God was introducing this subject to me and literally shoving it in my face— but as He opened my eyes and ears to the meaning of Agape Love, true love; I can see now. I can understand why...

Dear Crush,
Writing Challenge { Day 2 } “My Crush”
Dear Crush,
I contemplated on wether or not you exist because I think that what I feel for you is worth far more than the meaning of a ‘crush.’ But after thinking more about it, I realize that you are totally my crush because according to UrbanDictionary.com…. A Crush is:
1. the act of falling hard for someone even though it isn’t...

Anonymous asked: I could really relate to your post about brokenness, once we give all our worries to God, He will come through for us. Only when we understand this and do it, will we really be happy! So i was very happy reading your post thankyou! God bless!

Ready or Not; Brokenness is here.
For the past year I have battled this reality of being stuck on one. One place: which I quite like even though I know it benefits me none. One time: a never changing repetition of everyday life for more than a year now. One person: one that I can’t seem to kick to the curb even though I’ve worked so hard to build myself up to a better me. One setting: a switch that renders all of my...
