About Me

Hmm lets see.. I go to Cincinnati Christian University pursuing a degree in Communications. I love my school and the awsome people that have come into my life here. I love God and try to put Him first in everything I do. My future goals lie in His hand and wherever he would have me be. I have a vision that one day I will be a published author traveling and speaking. My heart lies with teenagers and the hurting. The many trials and heartaches I have experienced have only made me a stronger person and given me a chance to understand pain on a much deeper level. I try not to hide my struggles and disappoitments because I I like to keep it real. I try not to judge because I never know the other persons story. My heart is glad when I see, with my own eyes, the lost and hurting come to Jesus and choose freedom over defeat. Sometimes I feel too much with my heart before my head. I love pickles, peanut butter, sweet potatoes. I love my family and friends. I appreciate the relationships I have with my siblings and Love them a whole lot! I cherish good memories and grow from the bad ones. I thank God for the great people, mentors, and good influences He brought into my life. I treasure my friendships and I believe that one true friendship is better than 10 good ones. I want others to tell me the truth even when it hurts. I look for acountability, realness, and true people who I can trust. I love to laugh and have a good time. Sometimes I get my words mixed up and its hularious. Im by no means perfect and have great problems like anyone else. I hate that there is so much pain in the world. I love that Jesus died for our sins. One day I hope to travel to Africa and teach the children. I cant wait to get married and have a family (one day) I try to live my life, everyday, on purpose for a purpose.

Heroes:

There are many people I consider heroes of my life. First and most important God because He stayed by myside through my anger, pain, and unbelief. He continued to love me when I couldn't even love myself. Second, the Lopez and Holders. They opened up their home to me when I had no place to go. The Gomez's - I just love those Mexicans! Steph, Angie, Alexis and Saul helped me along the way by giving me a place to stay. Joe Mercurri who encouraged me to finish school and played a father figure in my life. My aunt, uncle and cuz. Others: Carolyn Miller, my grandma, pearl jones, my sister, ernie brown, peggy, and my best friend Jeanna. I love you all!div style="width: 480px; text-align: center;"These are a few that have won my heart. I would love to be a missionary in Africa at some point in my life.

A look in the rearview mirror

In the midst of the busy day I stopped and refected on my life. As if I were looking in the rearview mirror, I thought back to what led me to chapter twenty-two in my book of life. My rearview mirror...
