.....and this is what it feels like to be alive

About Me



I pray that I can be broken more and more each day. That I could die to myself, that I may live for Christ. He died for me and for you after all. So why not live for Him!! The love that has taken over my life is incredible and I hope to show you that kind of love (the best that I can) along with the joy and hope that I have found in my Savior. I'd love to tell you more about him and his goodness.My life has been changed! And I want to change the world. But to do that I have to spread the love that pierced my heart. That is my goal!
