About Me

The beloved of the LORD shall dwell in safety by him; and the LORD shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders. Deuteronomy 33:12 The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.Deuteronomy 31:8 So a bit about me, I grew up in a tiny Texas town, love Austin, love to sing, crazy about kids, and am currently running in circles. My number one goal in life is to do whatever the Lord God put me on this earth to do. »-(¯`v´¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯`v´¯)-«

My Interests

Jesus, singin', amazing girlfriends, contentment, travelling the world, discovering me and God, stayin up til all hours, writing the Great American Novel - if I can ever get past the 3rd page, becoming an advocate for the disenfranchised, disheartened, and generally depressed - Jesus says, come to me, all you who are weary and heavy-laden and I will give you rest.
