Let us run with our eyes on Jesus.

…I long so much to make beautiful things. But beautiful things require effort — and disappointment and perseverance.

Vincent van Gogh,“Letter to Theo van Gogh,” 9 Sept. 1882  (via wordsnquotes)

Couldn't help but see Samwise Gamgee in this scene and thought of this quote.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. -Romans 15:13

For at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light - Ephesians 5:8

May have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. - Ephesians 3:18-19

What if the best medication started with the letter "P" but didn't end with "ill".

What if it involved a little bit of hurt/hERt and a lot more music/SONgs...

What if the best medication is actually found in a PERSON. 

I realized something today. I think everyone looks at me and sees a confident young person who's going to make a difference in the world. Or I'm that really quite one who's actually kind of smart. But I realized that what I really need, is for people to start seeing me for who I truly am... For them to look at me and see my crumpled mess that's just struggling to breathe, resting in my savior's protective arms as he stands tall and mighty, fighting off the enemy so that I can be that person that people think is me. Why is it they see this image of me, but not the man who holds me together?

As heartfelt as Frozen's climax was, the movie musical could have benefited from a brief reprise of the song "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" at a key moment. So one fan wrote the lyrics to a reprise and another gave it voice. Spoilers below.

This would have been a cool idea for the movie.
