Never settle for yesterday's passion

About Me


If I could describe myself in one word, it would be passionate! I am first passionate about Christ! I have been a Christian now for 6 years, and love every minute of it! I could never go back to the way that I used to live. My goal in life is to always get to know God more. You can never know Him to much, and you can never have to much passion for Him! I am also passionate about sharing the love of my life, Jesus Christ! I love to travel around the world (especially asia). My first trip was to the Philippines, and I just fell in love with it! I have also been to Mexico, Hollywood, Panama, China, Vietnam, and India! I also went back to the Philippines, and I am planning on going back for long term after I graduate in Dec. My third passion is reaching the next generation. I want to do great things for God, but I want to see the next generation do even greater things for Him! Leave a Legacy! I am passionate about family! Not only am I passionate about my own family, but I am passionate about others! I believe there is power in family, and the Bible proves that! Lastly, I am passionate about life! My goal in life is to always live my life to the fullest, doing my best, being my best, for the Glory of Jesus!
