About Me





Hi! I'm Maria, of Italian background but born and brought up in the U.K (yes that rain filled place!)I'm 38 years old and counting (can you believe time goes by so quick?) I'm married to John and have been with him 12 years and we have a 9 year old daugter whom we love so much. I became a Christian some years ago and God is a huge part of my life. I won't force God on you but if you ask I WILL tell you because God is so amazing! Being a Christian doesn't mean I am boring and have no humour, not all Christians wear tweed suits and have no idea about people's needs. I do have a crazy , fun sense of humour and have been told that I'm mad (of course in a nice way, hmm I hope)but watch out for those bad moods once a month! I am so into keeping fit,after all we have to look after our health. I cycle miles and miles which I love. I like to think I would do any thing for anyone, I love to help and listen but don't take me for granted. If you are reading my profile and are not a Christian,please consider God in your life, after all there is more then just this life time to think about, you can't avoid death so at least have a good everlasting plan! Please feel free to stop by when ever you like...Let's be friends.

Faith goes up and down

Don't you just wish you could stabilize your faith, or is it just me? I go from being very emotional about God  and feeling very close to being indifferent and it's the indifference that disturbs...

Forgiveness is tough but so worth it

Today I found God telling me that it was time to forgive my dad. After years of not liking one another I took it on myself to be real mean to him the other day. Needless to say I have not been able to...
