passion for people

like i said, i've been asking God to give me a deeper passion for people...

and this girl blows me away. she is torn up when she sees people who refuse to know Jesus. i want to be like that...


"I need to just trust God and pray, but I just don’t want my friends to go to Hell. I want everyone to be in heaven with us. Someone asked me, 'why do you even care so much?? If you know where you’re going , why worry about where everyone else is going?' For some reason, I just cannot think like that."

Hey girl!! Thanks so much for the comment, you are soo encouraging! I cannot tell you enough how blessed I am to have you as a friend. I frequently wish you were here, at school, with me to help me when things are rough, but God had a different plan, lol. It's ok, I know God is using you amazingly where you are because you continue to touch my life from across the world, I cannot even imagine how you impact people's lives in Baton Rouge! One day, maybe, if it is Gods will, we can do some kind of missions work together, or even just to be able to hang out and get closer for a while. Like when I come back for college or something. I've never had a friend like you and no one could ever replace you, so I want to take advantage of having you as my friend. MEANING WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING REALLY AWESOME TOGETHER ONE DAY!!! Thank you again for everything! I love you soo much, Tori.
