My Father Said To Me

God made a huge impact in my heart by reading these 4 words.
"...Fear not: believe only..."
(Luke 8:50)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Dear____________(insert your name!)

"I knew what I was getting into when I called you.
I knew what I was getting into when I said your name, but I said it just the same.
I knew what I was getting into and I still want you.
I knew what I was getting into.

And I am not shocked by your weakness.
And I am not shocked even by your sin.
And I am not shocked by your brokenness.

I knew what I was getting into and I still want you.
I knew what I was getting into and I still like you.
I knew what I was getting into and I still chose you.
Cuz only I can see the end from the beginning.
And only I can see where this is going.
And I see in you the seeds of love.
And I see in you strength when all you see is your failure and all you feel is ashamed.
I can see deeper than that.
I know you better than that.

I knew what I was getting into when I called you.
I knew what I was getting into when I said your name. I said it just the same.
I knew what getting into and I still want you.
I knew what I was getting into and I still like you.
Your only at the beginning.
You've only just begun and I know where you are going
And all you can see in the moment is that your hurting.
And all you can see in the moment is that your aching.

I knew what I was getting into when I called you.
I knew what I was getting into and I still want you.
I knew what I was getting into and I still like you.
I knew what I was getting into when I called you.
Just don't give up.
And don't give in.
If you don't quit. You’ll win, you’ll win!
Everything is in my hands.
It's going to be alright.
It's going to be okay.

And you don't have to pretend to be something or someone your not.
Cuz I know you better than that, even better, even better than that.
Listen my Beloved.

I knew what I was getting into when I called you.

I knew what I was getting into when I said your name. I said it just the same.

I knew what I was getting into and I still like you.

I knew what I was getting into and I still chose you."
Love - God ♥

Amazing Friend = Amazing Weekend!

A few weekends ago a very VERY wonderful friend came to spend the weekend! we had a BLAST! spending time together was long overdue, and greatly needed! it was an amazing weekend filled with laughter, long deep conversations, praying, horses, (riding, training, and learning) and so much more! we really made an effort to capture our memories with pictures! so enjoy some photos!

Highlights of the day!
* Trail Riding all day at Twin Rivers
* A really.... REALLY big bon fire (+smores!!)




(Dixie had a BLAST being with us on the trails at the park!)

My mom stood in amazement watching me pack the cooler, and exclaimed "surely you girls wont eat everything that you've just packed" but after a long day of riding we came home with an empty cooler! :D

so. Its just Bekah and I, and I forgot to bring the tripod! .. how were we supposed to get pictures of us on the horses!??? well the edge of the truck with a curry comb under the lense of my camera worked as a pretty decent "gerry-rigged" tripod!

yeah! I had to run pretty fast on this one to climb up and stand before the sutter clicked!

pretty tired after a 6 hours of riding!

then that night we had a huge of a bon fire!
