Daily Grace

inquire here   "The smartest thing I've learned is that I don't have all the answers, just a little light to call my own." ~Emphasis, Sleeping At Last // Each day I'm washed anew by the Grace of God. Anything good in me is because of who He is and who He is making me to be. I'm Ashley. I'm learning that there are seasons in life, and that sometimes you have to put on your raincoat instead of ignoring the rain.

It’s kinda cool if you think about it. God let you fall, because he wanted to show you a different perspective. 

This is the most perfect thing I’ve ever read.

Are we wrong in our discouragement?

The job hunt is a draining thing. I almost feels like applying for college. I feel like it should be easier than that. But it’s been disheartening. All my colleges wanted me. But why don’t these employers? I have been considering what it means to be discouraged these past couple of days. In Philippians 4:8 it says, “Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” When we exist in a state of discouragement we choose to think about things that are not lovely and not good and not admirable. Do we not have something to be constantly rejoicing in? Do we not have a constant hope, a constant reason to be encouraged in Jesus? When we allow ourselves to be discouraged are we saying that are reason for discouragement is more powerful than The Lord Jesus Christ as our reason for encouragement? Perhaps I’m getting ahead of myself. It is easy for me to get discouraged because I’m often my own worst critic. But God is my biggest cheerleader. And when I choose to focus on that and Him instead of myself and my faults, I smile a lot more often. This is know to be true.

inspired by their album cover so I made fan art, you could say. Incredible band, incredible church, incredible new album.

I will eat the prettiest flowers
and drink only rose water
I will snack on dandelions
and count the calories
They say you are
what you eat
I just want to be
beautiful for once

I’M A PERFECTLY ABLE YOUNG WOMAN WITH A NICE PERSONALITY. WHY WON’T YOU LET ME WORK AT YOUR ESTABLISHMENT. WHY. HIRE ME.

"If you don’t pray often, you won’t gain a love for praying. Prayer is work, and therefore it is not very appealing to our natural sensibilities. But the simple rule for prayer is this: Begin praying and your taste for prayer will increase. The more you pray, the more you will acquire the desire for prayer, the energy for prayer, and the sense of purpose in prayer."
Leslie Ludy, Wrestling Prayer  (via its-iyanu)

“tyler, go stand over by that bike and think about something you like.”
“what? like what?”
“i don’t know, pizza and bikes?”
this was the result of that thought.
