lights will guide you home

I love this video. It's the summation of everything that I love about the RonxHermione pairing. I pray that God will give me a man like this some day. My own personal Ron Weasley....I thought I had it, I truly did. But it turns out God has other plans. Someday, I will find the person who is to be my Ron-- best friend first, true love after. God will bring him to me when the time is right. Still, I do love this video, and definitely had to share (:

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" ~Jeremiah 29:11

roar.

below is a poem that I just composed. Seeing as I'm not much of a poet, it isn't great, but I like the way it sounds read aloud. Kudos to Melissa for the idea:

I am woman.

Hear me roar.

Shake,

Tremble,

For you shall never cease to see my strength.

Run,

Hide,

For you shall never cease to feel my wrath.

Men fail. Love falls.

But I shall not die, for

I am woman.

Hear me roar.

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us." ~Hebrews 12:1

welcome

Welcome to victorious. Welcome to the ramblings of a college girl who is in love with Jesus, who is a complete nerd about superheroes and books, and who loves to write.

I'm not sure what the purpose of this blog is as of yet, but for now, it will probably be a sort of 'catch-all' for what I'm thinking, going through, and experiencing. It may be completely boring, or it may provide some sort of insight, or I might just post little drabbles of fiction that I've written or am thinking about writing (for those of you who know about fanfiction....some of that will probably be on here as well.)

But I do know this: every single one of my posts will have a verse at the end, a verse that is working in my life and that the Lord is using to mold me and shape me and love me. A reminder that He IS all that I seek and all that I need. HE is everything to me. HE is the Lord of all.

So welcome, and I hope you enjoy the ride. Praise be to God!

"I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge- that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." ~Ephesians 3:16-19
