So I had a hilariously horrible day today. I spent the whole thing holding on by my fingernails to the message behind Psalm 30:5:  Weeping may last for a night, but joy comes in the morning. I thought to myself, “OK, time to choose to get up out of my bed of self-pity and watch the sun rise on that.” I figured I’d be able to make a decent blog post out of that metaphor. I was searching for an image to go along with it, and this popped up. “Awesome, I can connect it to how the Bible resonates even with angsty teenage pop-art.” (Which, being on tumblr, I have seen on ten thousand million bajillion different occasions, and that was just when I stopped counting.)Then I clicked on the link.

Which says to me, don’t lose sight of the Scriptural truths just to make a cool blog post, girl. Keep those hipster-painted fingernails holding on and pointing up.Brb, the sun is rising. I’ve got beautifully joyful colors to watch spread over the horizon.
