Colson

-
Today I just wanted to pay homage to Charles (Chuck) Colson. I am sending Colson my first book that I ever read by him and he is going to sign it. LOVE IT!!! Nathan and I recently went to the Goodwill bookstore, it is near P.F. Changs at Ridgeway and Park and I added about 3 more books to my Colson section, which brings it to about 7 or 8!

His secretary told me that his new book, The Faith, is one that is a culmination of his life work. Personally I have given my copy away and bought another for someone else. I actually need to buy another copy! He truly has an honesty about him that is unique.

He is helping head up something called the Manhattan Declaration and if you guys haven't checked it out you should!

Love you guys,

Jess

Something bad has happened. I was angry. Still am sort of. It is more like I have spurts of sadness and then anger. Didn't know that when this happened it would hurt this bad. You grew in my life but I wasn't as honest with you as I thought. I didn't say things because I didn't want to push you away. Well that back fired.

You don't realize how much I wish I wrote this song so it would really come from my heart. But God did so I don't have to. Addison Road's I Am Sticking With You Come on, it's me you're talking to There's something going on inside of you Don't have to say it, but I wish you would Cause it would be much easier You always hide behind yourself You walk a lonely road with no one's help I hate to break the news You're headed for a fall And if I have to jump Then I...

Update for 2020

Man! This blog is SUPS old. Today, in between prepping for going back to school, I read over this blog I made in College and in my first couple months of marriage. All my friends were doing it, so why not me. I loved reading over how faithful God has been in my life. I forgot that I was so in LOVE with him. Revelation 2:4, "Yet I hold this against you; You have forsaken the love you had at first." My sweet Jesus, how that has happened over the years. Thank you for your forgiveness and sacrifice. I ended my last post with a confession. I hate myself. Unbeknownst to me at the time, I had anxiety and depression. I should say I HAVE. I have been on medication for almost a year, and been seeing a counselor for two. This may seem like God has been absent in my life, but He has been so FAITHFUL! Reading over this blog has reminded me how He has shaped my life, but it has also shown me how much I have changed and become more like Jesus. Thank you Father for the grace to be on this jo...
