http://annamariej.blogspot.com/2014/07/on-subject-of-social-media.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2014. On the subject of social media. I've never seen a teen blog about social media in this sort of way. I don't see many teens blog, period. Actually, this is a pretty popular topic amongst parents. Your child should not have a better phone than you. If you own a flip phone while your teen is sporting the newest iPhone, then I suggest you trade phones. You should know how to use your child's phone, and know what's on it. You're evil. Grin. I know I feel that way with my parents. So be...

ANNA JOHNSON | BLOG: A Word for the Bride: God's Love vs. the world's love
http://annamariej.blogspot.com/2015/04/a-word-for-bride-gods-love-vs-worlds.html
Tuesday, April 21, 2015. A Word for the Bride: God's Love vs. the world's love. To the Church, the Body, the Bride of Christ:. Last week I visited my parent's small group. One of the members, a lady fittingly nicknamed "Rabbi", spoke something that has not since left my mind. I will paraphrase and add in my own thoughts on here, but it's the same idea:. Are we scared of people thinking we are forcing God into their lives? Justification from Paul the apostle. So that it builds. Think of Jesus when the peo...

ANNA JOHNSON | BLOG: The year I
http://annamariej.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-year-i.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2014. The year I traveled out of the country 4x. The year I drove for the first time. The year I started high school. The year I became a Compassion International advocate. The year we got one step closer towards adoption prep for Miss M! The year that consisted of court, court, and more court. The year I prayed more. The year I fell in love with classical music. And football games. The year I joined a discipleship group. The year Chipotle was brought into my life. The year I will...

Sunday, March 16, 2014. El Salvador 2014: Day 1. It has been a bumpy road, but I finally made it to the day I've been waiting for. I think it's safe to say I'm home again. I just can't wait to fulfill God's plans for this week! Isn't this place gorgeous? They performed plays and songs for us when we got there as a welcome! This is one of our sponsor kids, Milton. He's only 12, but he looks 15. All these kids are learning how to sew water bottle holders, towels, pillows, etc. Wednesday, March 5, 2014.

http://annamariej.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 7, 2014. I love homeschooling. I really do. 8230;it just isn't as easy as I thought it would be. I had such high hopes and expectations. I planned on getting ahead in my work. I planned on being so much smarter than I was in public school. I planned to keep on hanging out with my school friends. I planned on getting away from all the drama public school brought. Well, my plans fell through. Big time. Saturday, January 4, 2014. If there's anything I learned looking back on 2013, it's what...

ANNA JOHNSON | BLOG: Do it again.
http://annamariej.blogspot.com/2015/06/do-it-again.html
Friday, June 26, 2015. I'm social media fasting for a couple of days. Blogging doesn't count, does it? Because, this quote– I can't avert it:. Because children have abounding vitality,. Because they are in spirit fierce and free,. Therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, “Do it again”. And the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. I'm not so co...

ANNA JOHNSON | BLOG: Refuse to run
http://annamariej.blogspot.com/2015/07/refuse-to-run.html
Monday, July 27, 2015. 8230;what I've been asking for as long as I can remember. God, rid me of everything else but You. I want to live completely by Your will for me. I've been uncomfortable. Physically, spiritually and, emotionally. That can't be what I was implying, though, right? Do I take it all back? Was I kidding myself for wanting this? So people will think of me as important? The missionary. So wise beyond her years. God has something BIG in store for her. What about when they don't? Subscribe t...

ANNA JOHNSON | BLOG: Wonder
http://annamariej.blogspot.com/2015/05/wonder.html
Saturday, May 9, 2015. My grandparents moved from the house they'd lived in for as long as I've been alive. I was not particularly happy about it. I mean, that was their house. It's all I've known of theirs. I could not bring myself to imagine another family calling it home. It sounded weird. I mean, look. Sigh. You know when you're looking at something and you receive a feeling of… want. Like a sudden desire for something more has been born in you? The never-ending, mysterious universe beyond our own ga...
