Confession: Tonight I kidnapped my roommate, shoved her into my big, creepy, white van, and (after getting stuck in the ice on the parking lot) took to her Taco Bell in the middle of the night. It was awesome! She yelled and complained the entire time! It was hysterical!
Truth: my number one goal in life is to make sure that all of my friends know that I love them based on the extreme amount of teasing that I give them! I think that I have had some major success in this goal over the past week.
Tonight, I read about Jacob’s last blessings to his sons. He takes the time to evaluate each one, and asks God about their futures. He knows his sons, and he blesses them accordingly.
In light of Jacob’s blessings, I thought that tonight would be a good opportunity to start something new. I want to start “blessing” my friends in a manner similar to what Jacob did. So…every once in a while, I will post a blessing or a thought about someone in my life.
As a person who is surrounded by magnificent people, I think that this will be a way for me to give them a place here, as Jacob’s blessing gave his family place in the Bible.
Teasing is not the only way to show love.
So to start off…
Katrina…
Katrina has magnificent eyes. She has been given the ability to see beauty that has been lost on others. She can stand in awe before things that all others pass by.
She knows the creative heart of her savior…and she is in love with it. She constantly seeks so catch another glimpse of him, and quite literally dances for joy when she does.
Her laugh captivates the heart of her father…she has understands the beauty of letting go, and of laughing without shame.
Sometimes she worries and sometimes she is unsure…but she is magnificent. She is eternally loved by her father and she truly has nothing to worry about.
