When you are in high school, you don't give much thought to what you can't do. For most people, that gets learned later, and for still fewer, gets unlearned for the rest of life.

We don't really make friends, they make us.

But the kind of love that God created and demonstrated is a costly one because it involves sacrifice and presence. It's a love that operates more like a sign language than being spoken outright.

That's one of the things about love. It doesn't recognize boundaries and never obeys the rules we try to give it.

Don't let not knowing how it'll end keep you from beginning. Uncertainty chases us out into the open where God is waiting.

I used to think that real love involved falling for someone; but now I think it usually involves standing for someone.

There are lots of things we're able to do, but I'd like to land on the one thing I was MADE to do.
