About Me

My photo
By the age of 21, I was a single mother of two and feeling confident that there was no room for "religion" in my life. Christ humbled me and I came to know, love and depend on him as my personal savior. While growing in my faith, God opened my mind and my heart to a man who is now my husband, and a wonderful father to two! Through God's sovereignty, we are blended as one.

Why I Blog?

I am asking myself this very question as I try to set up my new blog. Several years ago, my friend Nicole asked me to create a blog so people could keep up with what was new in my life. She encouraged me to get a myspace account (we won't mention how that turned out) and then facebook. I wasn't sure if all 5 of my friends would be interested in reading about me and my family on my blog but I started one anyway.

After thinking about it and consulting my spiritual advisor, Amber:-) I realized that I might share something that can be helpful to someone else or to myself. I struggle with daily thoughts and actions that are definitely not glorifying God and I'm sure I'm not alone. So I guess I blog to share my struggles and triumphs with those who care to read about them.

Yay! I love reading people's blogs and seeing what's going on in their lives, what they're thinking about, etc. Even if no one reads my blog, I just wanted to do it...so I did! Amber is so right, you never know how sharing your own thoughts and experiences can help someone else.
