It's hard for me to pinpoint the exact age I was since I grew up in a Christian home, but I think I was about 7 when I truly accepted Christ and knew I believed in and loved Him.

My walk with the Lord is strong-of course there is always room for improvement and forgiveness. My desire to love and serve the Lord is continuously growing as I trust in him as my faithful Father.

Knowing that it is from the outpouring of grace from God that I have been saved makes me deeply grateful and joyful for my salvation. Knowing that God chose me, a sinner, to be His is the most wonderful treasure I will ever have in life.

Understanding the doctrine of grace gives me comfort in the fact that it is not of works that I have done but only through Christ's shed blood that I have been saved. What a precious gift!

One of my passions is the pro-life movement. I volunteered for 1.5 years at a Christian Crisis Pregnancy Center as a counselor, and I pray that God will use me in some way in the fight to end abortion.

I love the Lord with all my heart and I long to see unbelievers turn to him and share his love with them.

O may my hand forget her skill, my tongue be silent, cold, and still, this bouding heart forget to beat, if I forget the mercy seat.-"From Every Stormy Wind that Blows"

Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." - Lamentations 3: 21-24

Psalm 103
