About Me

flowers layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com MyHotComments
HotFreeLayoutsI am blown by the way I've seen the Lord rip through my life. At the moment I'm in a place I never thought I'd be; this and all the other surprises have been the faithful work of the Lord in my life. I'm with Youth With a Mission and I desire wholeheartedly for people in my world to see the incredible pursuit of the Father towards them in their lives. No matter the time and place God desires to be in every facet of our lives and the world around us. He moves in magnificent ways, and I want people to know about it... not just know, but experience God. He speaks, he walks, he moves with and on behalf of His people. I've been blessed to be an example of humble beginnings and hardship being taken around the world.I'm up for anything at any given moment... lets be active and play ball, or sit and enjoy a movie. I'd say it doesn't matter what I do as long as I get to hang with one of the many wonderful ppl in my life, but I definitely horde my own "Rachel time" as well. I love being outside and enjoying all that life has to offer. I love people and everything they are and all that they're not. I know many people who love me despite who I am and more for who they see I can be. I have to be around people who are different from me and love the conversations that come out of a desire to learn something and someone new.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet anyone that enjoys a random in-depth convo as an unexpected blessing. I want to be around anyone that loves laughter, dancing, music, and going with the flow. At this point I'd like to be blessed with having another couple of hours (or even minutes) with some of the amazing people I've met already.

Music:

I can enjoy almost all types of music. I prefer not to listen to music that leaves you w/ a piercing headache, but if it's live and my friends are playing I will be the first in line to support and always dance and enjoy. . I'm southern born and bred, which makes an automatic heart for country new and old. Being from Memphis gives me a heart for the blues and all else that had it's start here in the dirty south. Acoustic sets of any kind are worthy of anyone's time.

Television:

ESPN SportsCenter, CSI, The Office, NCIS

Books:

Bible, Counte of Monte Cristo, Wild at Heart, Captivating, Safely Home, What's So Amazing about Grace? (both versions), Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, Blue Like Jazz, Searching for God Knows What, anything by C.S. Lewis,

Heroes:
