God rocks

I don't have big, cool, awesome stories, but I do have little, cool, awesome mini-stories.

-All the rich of the earth will feast and worship;
all who go down to the dust will kneel before him—
those who cannot keep themselves alive.
~Psalm 22:29

How great it is that they who cannot save themselves are the ones who will be saved and will worship!

-The very same power who made the trees to quiver with life lives inside of me!

-I'm not working for perfection. I'm working to be faithful. If I'm faithful in following his call, and if being a scientist is what I'm supposed to do, he won't let me fail.

-Questions are valid. A faith that does not question is weak. Questions are valid--and here's the kicker: they're just as valid unanswered. Questions aren't validated because they get answered. They are valid because we can't know everything. It's trust. We are supposed to seek God, not necessarily answers. And in by seeking him, questions may be answered or changed or deemed unnecessary to know the answer to.


God, give us faith that is beyond what we think we can handle. Because faith we can handle isn't faith at all; it's twisted reasoning. Give us faith that dares to believe.
