My first published blog post was The Stone. Almost exactly two years later, I read it again and tear up. I wrote: We fall on Jesus, into His “everlasting arms”; we lean on Him, depend on Him to hold us up. And He does. But sometimes we’ll be broken. Sometimes our...

Home where we’ll all be together again, Home where our praise to the Lamb would never end; I am going home, where we’ll walk the streets of gold and never see a tear again, I am going home, where I’ll cast my crown before the King of Kings and Lord...

Luke 23:39-43 See, Father, I have brought with Me This trophy rare; We both were hanging on a tree–I heard his prayer; And since for sinners there I bled, For him the crimson stream was shed. I heard that cry–“Remember me!” My soul it stung....

I changed my laptop wallpaper to this the day I heard my friend’s aunt had died. To me, it’s a message, a reminder. It’s dark in the picture. Sad. Heavy. Hurting. She’s holding her hands out, pleading, waiting, hoping. But there is light. And...

Thus saith the Lord; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate… The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise...
Hi, I'm Julie, a 16 year-old lover of books, music, and Jesus. I'm a sophomore in high school (Abeka Academy), and am starting my second year of violin lessons. I also co-publish a digital magazine called Priceless geared toward teen girls.
