illusions

when God writes your love story feels like it is pulling on my every heart string.

Julian was a lot of fun yesterday. Candance, Dan, and Lauren were perfect company. it was a bit colder than i expected it to be, but it was a great way to complete the day.

i bought myself a little book a few weeks ago called Promises for a Jesus Freak that i now cannot leave behind. i keep it in my purse because it comes in handy more than i thought it would be. since i let my heart get caught up in recent happenings, i didn't really know what the best book of the Bible would be to read... but what i love about Promises is that there's sections throughout the entire book where there are Bible verses for just the right time. and there's one section for dealing with a broken heart simply titled Emotional Healing. my favorite two are:

My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.
Psalm 73:26

&&

You can throw the whole weight of your anxieties upon him, for you are his personal concern.
1 Peter 5:7

i like having that little book... with scripture that's easy access for whatever the reason may be.
and Promises couldn't have been titled any better than it has been.

i want to go on another trip to Julian.
and i want to go on a drive up the coast...
would anyone like to join me?
