The Man I Pray For Is...

I Pray for the Man that prays before meals. I Pray for the Man that puts others first . I Pray for the Man that loves relentlessly and forgives graciously.

The Man I Pray For Is...

As a young girl in college, like many others my thoughts are constantly consumed with who I'm going to spend forever with. The best thing I can do now is pray for not only my future, but His.

I Pray for the Man that...

1. Prays before meals.

2. Selflessly puts others before himself.

3. People always associate Jesus with.

4. Seeks Jesus during hard times.

5. Loves the least of these.

6. Fearlessly goes after His dreams.

7. Wants 15 kids (just kidding!!!)

8. Is always down for a good coffee date

9. Loves his family relentlessly

10. Never stops me from adopting dogs

11. Prays not only for me, but with me.

And although he may not always execute these things perfectly, because no one can, I pray that he will always seek the Lord, His forgiveness, and His mercy in all His ways.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
