Tractor.

The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.”

Romans 8:15

Romans 8 is probably my most favorite chapter in the Bible. It is highlighted and underlined over and over again in my Bible. Each verse carries so much truth. This morning, I was thankful to read this verse. I let things of this world stress me out far too easily. Yesterday I was worrying over the most insignificant things. When I read this I was reminded that I am a child of God. He loves me perfectly no matter what. I have been adopted as His child out of pure grace. What a wonderful thing! 

Posing with a tractor. How editorial of me. It's a nice change of scenery though. These photos were taken at my family's horse farm like my last post. Lately we have been spending a lot of time out there, well into the night. I've been sitting in my eno and gazing at the stars. It's been very nice.

A Little Like Jordan Baker.

"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."

Hebrews 11:1

This chapter in Hebrews is all about the people of the Bible who lived by faith. It was very convicting to see all of these people who risked it all for Jesus. They gave up everything. They had faith. 

This shirt reminds me of something Jordan Baker would wear on the golf course. So feminine yet perfect for the women of that day, blurring the lines.

Adventures in Savannah.

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 

Galatians 6:9

This is a delayed post from my adventures in Savannah last week. We had a blast. I can tell because of my lack of photos. Please enjoy. I have an outfit post coming at you tomorrow so get ready. Have a great day. 

A Little Bit of Bonnaroo.

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us..."

Ephesians 3:20 

He can do IMMEASURABLY MORE. Let that sink in for a minute. I don't think I believe this most of the time. My mind is so small, yet I think I've got it all figured out. I truly have no idea what He can do. I've got to stop limiting His work in my life.

Here are some photos I took on the way to Bonnaroo and on the first day. Most of my days were filled with music and fun so I didn't take too many pictures. Enjoy!

Music Tuesday: Rayland Baxter.

In their hearts humans plan their course,
    but the Lord establishes their steps.
Proverbs 16:9
I loved reading this verse this morning. I'm pretty sure I had it taped to my mirror freshman year in college. I saw it almost every day, but today I saw something new. I see the Lord building a staircase. He ESTABLISHES our steps. We cannot take a step He hasn't established. How comforting is that? He goes before us. He paves the way. We might think we are planning our lives, we might know what we want to do with this time on earth, but we cannot take a step He hasn't created. And He knows what's best for us, He created us!

So I have returned from Bonnaroo. It was such an awesome experience. I saw so many incredible musicians. I also had some of the best people-watching in my life.
One of the musicians I heard (thanks to Taylor for telling me about him) is this guy, Rayland Baxter. He is so talented and has such beautiful lyrics. Please check him out!

Have a wonderful day!

"Surely God is my salvation;

    I will trust and not be afraid.

The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense;

    he has become my salvation.”

Isaiah 12:2

Trust, trust, trust, trust. It's like He's drilling it into my head. But my head is made of steel. Amazing how He's right there and I still don't trust. I've always been a do-it-myself kind of person. I can handle it, don't worry God. I got this. It took me a while to realize I really don't. Lately, every single morning this is what He has been saying to me. I think it's because He knows it can be my biggest struggle. And from trusting in Him comes everything else. Lord, teach me to trust you. 

My sister and I took these photos in the rain. It was just a drizzle but as soon as we were done the bottom fell out. I think it made the light absolutely perfect, though. I wore this to my internship yesterday. Perks of working at an art gallery.

Summertime.

“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” 

1 Peter 2:24

This is the Gospel. He is the only thing worth living for. He is the only One worth our time, our lives. I know this in my head, but it's so much harder to let this transform my heart. 

 So I've been gone quite a while. Sorry about that. The month of May was much more eventful than I could have imagined. I hope to be more consistent this month. I'm home now, interning at a fantastic company. Learning tons. And I get to wear awesome outfits to work. I hope I will get to share them with you. Anyways, I wore this to the mall the other night.
