“If I were a water vessel, I imagine I’d be a little fishing boat that goes out just far enough for the passengers to catch the good stuff, but not so far away that I couldn’t deliver them home to a comfortable dinner. I confirm the fact–I have stayed close to the metaphorical shore for most of my life...” Read more about trusting God while sailing into the metaphorical horizon in my most recent blog post (link in bio)! I also talk about this lovely quote by C.S. Lewis, and also link to a song by @jjhellermusic that I think you should listen to! ❤️ 📷 @lifeisjustdandi . . . #cslewis #christianity #quotes #trust #anxiety #future #plans #god #trustinggod #christian #christianblogger #blogger #poem #poetry #books #reading #bookblogger #cslewisquotes

You know why I use bookmarks instead of random pieces of paper and other items? Because I find ones with quotes like this, and I can’t resist. 😊😍📚📖 . . . #books #reading #bookmarks #nathanielhawthorne #quotes #words #readingquotes #bookblogger #blogger #writing #blogging #journals #journaling #write #writer

Any one else have a special journal just to store quotes in?

I love going back through it sometimes and rediscovering treasures. This jewel is from Overcoming Fear, Worry, and Anxiety by Elyse Fitzpatrick. . This is why we can have faith as small as a mustard seed...because the God we have faith in is powerful. So it doesn’t depend on the greatness of our faith but on the greatness of his might. 🎉 . . . #books #reading #journals #quotes #quotejournal #christianity #faith #god #christianbooks #elysefitzpatrick #christianblogger #bookblogger
