About Me

Would you like to get to know me? Some do, some do not, but if you are of the latter, come let's talk. Let's strike up a conversation on a windy day and talk as if we've known each other our whole lives. I know you could learn more about me in person than you ever could by reading a profile that i may have made months ago. so come, i am not hard to approach, and i will greet you with a warm smile and we will get to know each other.

My Interests

But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions-it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves,it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:4-10
