Em- Not ashamed to be a disciple of Christ

Dear Father, Am I who I'm supposed to be yet? You are the Potter, I am the clay.

About Me

I'm a veterinary technician that is blessed to work with a great bunch of people. I'm a youth leader at church and love every minute of it. I thank God for the chance to be there for the youth when they are confused and facing life. They need someone to love them no matter what! I am driven to love everyone as the Bible instructs. Sometimes Christians are their own worst enemies when they make a stand. We CAN NOT condone someone's sinful activities... but loving the person as Christ tells us to is the only way. Don't bomb abortion clinics or throw out hateful slurs. He loves them (John 3:16)... so we should too. The goal should be to live your life so they see the difference of Christ in you. Without Christ those trapped by the devil's lies have no hope and are destined for an eternity in hell. Don't you love them enough to let them see the way out?
Don't lose sight of the fact that every single person is born a sinner. I was. You were. So why do Christians seem to avoid sinners? I know for a fact that someone didn't give up on me when I was trapped in so many aspects of sin.
God has also blessed me with some really great Christian friends. Though they are more like family and comrades in this thing we call life. God has a call on my life... it's up to me listen to it... I don't think I'll be in WI forever. "Be still and know that I am God". God, I'm listening.....
..

My Interests

In the Message? Want questions answered?? .

Watch Shelley in the video below speak to men and share her powerful testimony and the truth about porn.

I'd like to meet:

How do I know if I haven't met them yet. There could be someone out there that's really awesome. But I won't know it until I meet them. I would like to meet people around my age in this area that love their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, with ALL of their heart.
Why is it that Christians put in their profile that they want to meet Jesus? If they are a Christian shouldn't they have met Him already??

Great lyrics from Todd Agnew

Which Jesus do you follow?
Which Jesus do you serve?
If Ephesians says to imitate Christ
Then why do you look so much like the world?

Cause my Jesus bled and died
He spent His time with thieves and liars
He loved the poor and accosted the arrogant
So which one do you want to be?

Blessed are the poor in spirit
Or do we pray to be blessed with the wealth of this land
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness
Or do we ache for another taste of this world of shifting
sand

Cause my Jesus bled and died for my sins
He spent His time with thieves and sluts and liars
He loved the poor and accosted the rich
So which one do you want to be?

Who is this that you follow
This picture of the American dream
If Jesus was here would you walk right by on the other
side or fall down and worship at His holy feet

Pretty blue eyes and curly brown hair and a clear complexion
Is how you see Him as He dies for Your sins
But the Word says He was battered and scarred
Or did you miss that part
Sometimes I doubt we'd recognize Him

Cause my Jesus bled and died
He spent His time with thieves and the least of these
He loved the poor and accosted the comfortable
So which one do you want to be?

Cause my Jesus would never be accepted in my church
The blood and dirt on His feet would stain the carpet
But He reaches for the hurting and despised the proud
I think He'd prefer Beale St. to the stained glass crowd
And I know that He can hear me if I cry out loud

I want to be like my Jesus!
I want to be like my Jesus!

Not a posterchild for American prosperity,
but like my Jesus
You see I'm tired of living for success and popularity
I want to be like my Jesus but I'm not sure what that
means to be like You Jesus
Cause You said to live like You, love like You but then
You died for me
Can I be like You Jesus?
I want to be like my Jesus

Television:


You Have A Type B+ Personality
You're a pro at going with the flow
You love to kick back and take in everything life has to offer
A total joy to be around, people crave your stability.

While you're totally laid back, you can have bouts of hyperactivity.
Get into a project you love, and you won't stop until it's done
You're passionate - just selective about your passions Do You Have a Type A Personality?

Books:

"Blue like Jazz", "Captivating", "Man in Black" and daily-- The Bible-- read it... you might like it :-D

Heroes:

Jesus Christ...He's the only one to ever give His life for me! He is also God... if you believe it or not... He is still the One and Only God.
