Hey, this is my new update of me! ha Ok...so more than anything, my goal is to honor God in the best way i can. Now it's hard for me to write that... here's why. That is my goal (to honor Jesus in the best way i can possibly do), but I stand here knowing i'm incapable of saying I'm anything great. I'm scared to say that "i'm striving to be like Christ" when i fall so much. But the one thing in me that i can say is great is my Lord. And the Lord within me makes me something better than my flesh. When I think of who I am... i get so disgusted and ashamed. My faults seem to never leave my mind, and my emotion follows. But, i try. Try to forget the unnecessary baggage and look at the new 'me' that God has designed and reformed. Of course...the baggage is a reminder of who I'm not anymore... it still haunts my soul. Doesn't it you? But hope is what consumes my thoughts when i realize that i'm not going anywhere exciting in life without my Lord.
So this is me. Unworthy, passionate, hurting, happy, joyful, loving, crazy excited, compassionate, God fearing. I'm nothing great, but if you ever wanted to talk to me about something that is... lets talk about the redemption our Lord has for everyone who loves him and chooses to be with Him forever in paradise. Thats my Lord...and he is who makes me anything special.
I have an AMAZING family! 2 brothers...a sister...and the most incredible parents ever. I don't know what i'd do without them. They mean the world to me.
I love music. I write, sing, record, and do graphic design! :)
I really just love life!
