Welcome to my blog! This blog was created as a way for me to write out what God has been teaching me in daily life. It's so awesome to look back and see how God has moved and changed my heart as time goes on. I thought a blog would be a great way for me to look back on what He's done and to share all that He is and has done with others!
Here's a little about me:
* I'm a follower of Christ
* I recently graduated from college with my degree in Elementary and Early Childhood Education
* I'm engaged to be married in May 2012
* God's blessed me by putting some truly amazing people in my life: I'm a friend, fiance, daughter, sister, camp counselor, teacher, and student
I'm just a sinner in need of His grace, longing to know Christ and bring Him glory in all I do. I'm journeying in a foreign land a girl sojourning through this world on my way to my eternal home. I'm in no way perfect, my life is messy, I'm clumsy and I stray away from the path of the cross daily but God always brings me back and lavishes His grace and mercy on me. God is refining me and molding me into the creature He purposed for me to be. I'm learning what it means to rest and rely on the Creator of the universe for all I need.
I'm just a regular girl trying to point to Christ along my whole journey. He's teaching me what it means to live for Him in a world that is constantly walking away from His truth. He's teaching me joy, love, and to rely on Him.
"There is nothing good, nothing holy, nothing beautiful, nothing joyous which He is not to His servants. No one need to be poor, because, if he chooses, he can have Jesus for his own property and possession. No one need to be downcast, for Jesus is the joy of heaven, and it is His joy to enter into sorrowful hearts. We can exaggerate about many things; but we can never exaggerate our obligation to Jesus or the compassionate abundance of the love of Jesus to us. All our lives long we might talk of Jesus, and yet we should never come to and of the sweet things that might be said of Him. Eternity will not be long enough to learn all He is, or to praise Him for all he has done, but then, that matters not; for we shall be always with Him, and we desire nothing more." - A.W. Tozer
"If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world." -C.S. Lewis
