He wants you.

Why God will never stop loving or pursuing you

He wants you.

Your life until this point has been a journey. That journey has included great moments, tough times, and various other emotions correlated with events. Now, think about where you are at this moment, and how you got here. There is one big reason you are here, and this person has stood by you the entire way.



That is God.



From the second you were born, he had a plan for you. From the second you could walk, he had a plan for you to change lives. From the second you got your first car, he had a plan for you to go and spread the gospel. It is hard to grasp, but whether you grew up in a Christ centered home and went to church or you didn't hear the calling of the Lord until later in your life; he has always wanted you to be a part of his kingdom.



In your past you have done great things, you may have done some bad things, but He has always wanted you, and He knew what was set for you. He was setting the table for you, and the spot was always open, and His plan was always in motion no matter what was happening in your life. In the present, He has continued to work in your life and set you on the path you are on today. Whether you have believed in His teachings until this point or not, He is still in control and He wants nothing more than for you to glorify His name and to go out in the world and let others hear the glory of His name as well. In your future, He will continue to show you His presence in everything in your life. Your job, kids, spouse, cooking recipes, literally everything, God will always be there, whether you want Him to or not, because above all He still wants you, no matter your beliefs. You are His child, and He will always love you.



Run to Him if you haven't already, because He has the tools to equip you to win any battle, any war, any obstacle that stands in your way. Run to Him when it gets tough, but also when it is great in your life. Life won't always be that way so stay humble, be happy, but share your happiness with the Lord because He has brought you to where you are and He will always bring you to the highest of highs, and will be with you in the lowest of lows. The Lord will always love you, He will always have a way to show you the bright side of everything, and you just have to surrender it all to Him and acknowledge that He is the one in control. He wants to use you to make the world even better than your presence already makes it. You weren't born to work, go to school, pay bills, and then die. You were born to make a difference in this world that so desperately needs people to take a stand in the Lord and for Him. He has always had a purpose for you, and the people you meet. You were made to make a difference and He will be there for that and give you everything He can to ensure you are prepared and can do it to the best of your abilities. You are special to a plethora of other human beings in this world, and God has led you to those that think that of you to collectively spread love, joy, and peace through everything you do. You always have to look forward to what He will do in your life next.



Trust in His timing, it will never fail.

Trust in His word, it will never fall.

Trust in Him, he has a plan.

Trust in His desires, because the biggest one of those is you, and that is the biggest decree of love ever. He wants you to show others that He wants them too.



Let's go show the world love through the name of the Lord and change this world for better, shall we?

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
