LORD you have my heart, and I will search for Yours.

About Me

"I marvel at the mystery that God chases us down, the God who spoke creation, the God who knows us better than we do."- Beth Moore.First of all, I am completely in love with my Savior Jesus! (He is the one responsible for ANY good in me) The Lord has captured my heart, and continues to! I love it. I am currently attending Eastern Illinois University finishing up a degree in Sociology/Psychology. I am ALMOST done- wahoo! I'm not really sure what I am going to do in the future, but as my friend Yvette says (and is so true) "God's plans are greater then our wildest dreams." Beth Moore also put it well when she said, " God surpasses our dreams when we reach past our personal plans and agendas to grab the hand of Christ and walk the path that He choose for us. He is obligated to keep us dissatisified until we come to Him and His plans for complete satisfaction." God doesn't frown on our dreams, he simply longs to surpass them! How great is our God? So I am just setting my focus on the LORD, trusting Him, attempting to live my life for an audience of One and trying to glorify Him by it fully! This summer I am moving to NE Alabama to do an internship at Big Oak's Ranch. I am very excited for that! Visit bigoak.org to learn more about it! : ) God has blessed my life so much! Sometimes I can't handle it!
