Happy New Year!

I like simple things, books, being alone, or with somebody who understands.

bringing people to Christianity

God placed this on my heart so I want to share:

When I was younger I first became a Christian because I didn't want to go to hell. My faith was purely based on not wanting to go to hell so I would try hard not to sin that way I would go to heaven. However, that is such a watered-down version of why we should have faith. As I grew older I felt God was calling me to reexamine my faith and become close to Him. Over the past 2ish years I have grown so much because instead of being Christian simply to not go to hell my faith was built on my relationship with God. He is the friend, parent, and just love that I have always searched for and wanted. He is the true embodiment of love. If you are wondering why you should be a Christian it is because at your lowest moments, where you feel most broken, underserving, lost, etc. the answer is Christ. HE LOVES YOU, not in a cheesy way but in a way where he died for you to save you from yourself. He wants to show you His love, and he provides peace. It is in a relationship with Him that even though I worry, and feel burdened, I can still have peace because of his presence in my life.

I just pray that anyone reading this accepts Jesus Lord and seeks a relationship with Him. I pray they do not get caught up in the "aesthetics" and try to be "that Christian girl" or the perfect person so that they don't go to hell, but instead I pray they seek you so that they can feel your love so that they can feel your breath of life into their own lungs. I pray that all who read this find you, so that they can encounter the peace, and love I have in following and getting closer to you. Jesus is what you have been seeking. Amen.

The greatest illusion that books made us believe is that when you suffer, struggle, or are in pain someone will notice. There is nothing more tragic than realizing you are not the character of anyone's story. You're alone, and the only person who will eventually notice is yourself. Nobody will come and save you, no plot twist is granted to happen and change the odds, and it's the greatest lie literature has ever told. Someone will care, others will not, but ultimately you're the only one who has to save themselves, the plot twist happens because you want it to, and that's what makes you the main character of your own story.
