Source: kushandwizdomI live. I am human. I am a teenager. I am a guy. I live for something greater. I struggle with the basics. I groan at the usual. But I keep living to do what has been asked of me.
You can call me Speedy.
I'm here to reach out to the ones I love and care for. Once in a while I'll get sentimental, or deep, and probably blog something like it.
My life has simple aims, and a difficult path to them. I deal with it the best I can.
I am Speedy. I am Christian, but do not fear me, for I will love you regardless. I guess this is the chance for anyone who cares, to see the depths of my mind, and everything it holds, dark or bright. Happy or sad.
Read my thoughts or leave them, they are yours to criticize.

"The core problem isn’t the fact that we’re lukewarm, halfhearted, or stagnant Christians. The crux of it all is why we are this way, and it is because we have an inaccurate view of God. We see Him as a benevolent Being who is satisfied when people manage to fit Him into their lives in some small way. We forget that God never had an identity crisis. He knows that He’s great and deserves to be the center of our lives."

"Isn’t God supposed to be good? Isn’t He supposed to love us? Does God want us to suffer? What if the answer to that question is yes? See, I’m not sure that God particularly wants us to be happy. I think He wants us to be able to love and be loved. He wants us to grow up. I suggest to you that it is because God loves us that He makes us the gift of suffering. To put it another way, pain is God’s megaphone to rouse a deaf world. You see, we are like blocks of stone out of which the sculptor carves the forms of men. The blows of His chisel, which hurt us so much are what make us perfect."

My sister just stormed downstairs demanding I turn on the T.V. and complaining about what a hard day she’s having.
(Let’s keep in mind she’s only 4)
Her: “I’m having a hard day.”
Me: “Oh really?”
Her: “Yeah because everybody is telling me to put the lids back on the markers and Mommy told me that and Daddy told me that and I didn’t want too and then Mommy threw away the black marker and that made me mad. So now I’m mad.”
Me: 0_0 “Sounds rough…”
She has quite the vocabulary for a four year old XD
That’s about as close to a direct quote I can get.
I’m kind of glad there’s a 12 year difference between me and her. I won’t have to be here when she hits puberty XDD
