About Me

Well, I am twenty-three years old and I have grown up here most of my life (Springfield/Ozark). My junior year of high school I committed my life to Christ, which is the best decision I have ever made. Since then my life has been a crazy whirlwind; I wont bore you with all the details. I intern at my church, James River Assembly, with Pastor Debbie in the women's ministry. I also go to the School of Ministry, training to be a minister! I am passionate about the House of God and wouldn't want to be anywhere else on earth and I am passionate about teaching the Word of God. I also minister in an amazing ministry called God4Girls, which is a missions organization through AGWM. We minister to victims and potential victims of sex trafficking. God has given me an amazing opportunity to get involved in such a huge need. And for the first time, my writing is being published through a quarterly newsletter they send out around the world! I also enjoy movies, music, art, literature...basically I could spend hours in a book store or museum, not kidding. My escapes are: time with the Lord, reading, writing, horseback riding, driving, listening to church leaders talk about ministry, listening to music, and candle lit bubble baths (in that order). So there is the face of my life. I'm not very clever, so I don't have these random things to tell you. But anyway, I don't give a lot of rubbish and I am pretty much a straight forward person. I don't find myself talking unless I feel I have something of worth to say. And can I just say (if you didn't somehow catch that the Lord is everything to me), the Lord is everything to me! I can't even begin to tell you how much I love Him or where this love comes from. It's within the deepest reaches of my mind where my thoughts reside; in my heart where my emotions live; and in my soul where my dreams are born. Within every reach is my longing desire to know my King more: in a very intimate and beautiful way. I owe Him everything, and everyday I press on to deny myself and live completely and utterly for the Lord. His will be done, not my own. There is no other way to live but in the freedom of Christ!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet any great women from the Bible: Esther, Mary, Mary Magdalene, Ruth, the list goes on. I would like to meet David, a man after God's own heart. Oh, and Paul of course. Beth Moore, Joyce Meyer, Donna Crouch, Chris Caine, Bobbi Houston...women in ministry. And Mel Gibson and talk to him about religion in the film industry. There are also so many other people, but I could go on for a while. I could spend hours learning from people, really.

Question of Love

When you walk into a room, the question you shouldn't be asking yourself is, "Do these people love me?"  The question you should be asking yourself is, "Do these people know that I love them?" Re...

Are there any merchant ships in His house...

Ladies, I have a thought for you to ponder.  Proverbs 31 mentions ..."she is like the merchant ships..."  So what does that mean?  Many times I have read that tidbit of wisdom and haven...

Good Apple

Women are like apples on trees: the best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the...

When I Look At the Stars...

Earlier I read a question that asked if I still wish upon stars.  The fact is, I did as a child.  I remember thinking that perhaps those stars held within them my dreams.  I don't wish ...
