omg, forever in my blog. FOREVER.
What.
Goodnight!
Wearing my sweet mouthguard to bed tonight for the first time. My dentist told me today that I grind my teeth because of stress. I have no idea what stress I am under. haha It’s a mystery.
But!! God is doing sweet things in my heart right now. I can just feel it and I know it. Things are becoming more clear and I just feel more at ease. Don’t know how long it will last though....

BAHHH I LOVE JESUS!!! :)
Scandal...
I’m cheating on Tumblr with WordPress… :O
It makes a person really uneasy when they feel like they can’t trust their best friend. It seems like she is always lying to me. :/ Maybe I am being unfair.
The sky was so beautiful this morning.
God is so beautiful!!!!
Yay.
I just go this email from Erik the flutemaker. MADE MY DAY.
“Hi Emily,
Linda, my wife and her best friend just heard your letter, which I read aloud.
They were impressed by your sweet spirit and maturity.
Truly you encouraged us with your kindness. Don’t stop being such a blessing.
Regards, Erik”
This is Erik. Such a sweet man. SUCH A CHARACTER....
Fine Arts.
I am in a class with ALL boys and they are trying to tape my mouth shut and won’t help me with our assignment. What a fun class… THE MOST ANNOYING ONE JUST GOT CALLED DOWN TO THE OFFICE. :D I’m sorry if this is mean. They keep calling me a heretic..
Dumb.
What a terrible decision..
Words With Friends
Been getting my butt kicked all night. haha I am pretty obsessed, though. My name is ekbanks if you wanna play! :D

Far.
Sometimes life is so easy. I just smile and laugh and nothing seems to have much depth to it. And then sometimes, life is hard. Life gets tough and full of questions that always seem too difficult to answer. All I want is a simple balance between each of these. I want to be happy and able to smile at little things, but I want to be able to think and discover things that make me fall to my face in...
Tough Tuesday.
Today was not the best. I started out the day super tired and had trouble staying awake in my classes. That put me in a grouchy mood and made people think I was mad at them or something. I wasn’t.. just needed an attitude check. Then the weather was gross. It was rainy and hot and humid and just Louisiana.. haha. I also got into a fight with my grandmother on the way home. It was over...

TEETH.
Jesus’ love is amazing. I just want to love Him back forever and not feel like I need anyone else. I don’t want to depend on anyone or anything but Him. I feel like these relationships that we make with people here on earth are good for a while, but you always end up getting hurt. You grow apart, fight, or someone just decides that they don’t care anymore. I have been hurt so...
Gungor - Cannot Keep You
They could not keep You in a tent They could not keep You in a temple or any of their idols, to see and understand
We cannot keep You in a church We cannot keep You in a Bible or it’s just another idol to box You in
They could not keep You in their box We cannot keep You in ours either You are so much greater
Who is like the Lord The maker of the Heavens Who dwells with the poor And He lifts...
Lisa Gungor is a lucky woman.
I love Michael Gungor and his music a little but more everyday. I hope God has someone like him for me. :)
Different.
I can’t help but laugh when I think about God and what He has done and is doing. Last night was one of the best nights that I have had in a long time. I can’t write much now, but I will tomorrow.
Love you guys.
Oh the weekend!
My english teacher, Kate (Ms. Boudreaux)haha, is leading leading worship tonight at her church. She asked me and a few of my friends to come. She is so gifted and I have a feeling that it’s going to be super intimate and good. I’m pretty stinking excited. HOLY SPIRIT MOVE!!!!
Hope you guys have a BLESSED! night. :)
Samantha!
My youth pastor, Brad, and his wife just had a baby girl tonight!!!! :))) I am extremely excited.

HELP!
If anyone is watching Passion Live right now, could you please explain to me what John Piper mean when he says that God will make much of you? He is blowing my mind and I am confused.
Have to get it out somewhere.
I feel sad. I figure it’s because I am tired of my life at the moment. Don’t get me wrong, I am fully aware of how fortunate and blessed that I am, and I am extremely happy 99% of the time, but I guess that it is just one of those days. I feel like I am boring and just average. I don’t feel special and I don’t feel important. I know that most of these things aren’t...

Music. I love it so much. Let’s make more of it.
This band is from down here in New Orleans, they call themselves Givers. I really like them.
This music.... oh my. →
