Walking, spending time with family and friends, reading, watching an inspirational movie, site seeing, traveling, bicycling, playing tennis, cooking, playing piano, going out to coffee, writing cards to people, hiking etc.

My relationship with Jesus, defines who I am. My faith is real, and active, not just attending church on Sunday. I became a Christian 9 years ago, and my goals are to continue to know, to love, obey and to serve my Savior.

Jesus Christ is completely sufficient for all matters of life and godliness, (2 Peter 1:3). “He is so pure that there is no blemish, sin, or defilement. He is so complete that there is no other God beside Him. He is the only begotten Son, and all treasures of wisdom and knowledge are in Him. He is the only Mediator between God and man, He is the Son that enlightens, the Physician that heal, the Wall of Fire that defends, the Friend that comforts, the Perl that enriches, the Ark that supports, and the Rock to sustain under the heaviest of pressures. Christ has no beginning and no end. He is the spotless lamb of God, who gave His life, in order to pay the debt for sin that we owed. He is our peace, hope, life, Living Word, Rock of Salvation and eternal Spirit. He is the Ancient of Days, Creator and Messiah and great I AM” If you don’t know Christ, taste and see that He is good. ps. 34:8.

I believe that marriage is a picture of God's relationship to the church and His love for us, so finding someone who has the same view is important.

In a relationship it’s important that the person

Ø be a strong believer.

Ø be able and willing to provide for his family.

Ø love sacrificially.

Ø be honest.

Ø strive for the qualities of a spiritual leader. (See Acts 6:3, 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:6-9).

During my quiet time I am reading through the book of James and to go deeper I am reading John Macarthur’s Commentary. I like to journal and write my thoughts down, and that helps me to remember and meditate on the truths that I read. I am also reading through the Old testament, I am currently in 1 Samuel.

I also love to read through Valley of Vision, it is a collection of puritan prayers.

I have a small accountability group that I go to, and we are going through the book “Peace Makers” and I also attend a Bible study.

I went to the Master’s College http://masters.edu/

and I attend Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, CA where John MacArthur is the pastor http://www.gracechurch.org/.

I am so blessed with solid Biblical teaching of the word of God. Some of my favorite pastors/authors are Jerry Bridges, Steve Lawson, John MacArthur, Charles Spurgeon, Jonathan Edwards and others. Check out www.gty.org and www.biblebb.com you’ll find some really great resources.

I am serious, soft, sweet, and sound in mind. I am genuine, kind at heart, understanding, and love spiritual conversations.

Three things I am most thankful for is Christ, and the new life in Him.

I am thankful for my sacrificial, loving and amazing family.

And I am thankful for work and challenging opprotunites to grow and see God's grace and glory.

I am looking for someone who loves and glorifies Christ, and is walking by the Spirit and lives out in his life the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-24). I want to meet someone who would challenge me, and I would hope that we would build each other up in Christ. Someone who is honest, humble, loving, supportive, has some sense of humor, provides for the family and will be my best friend to enjoy simple moments of life.

My favorite Scripture verses for now are:

Romans 11:33 -36.

Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways. For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who became His counselor? Or who has first given to Him that it might be paid back to Him again? For from Him, and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen!

Galatians 2: 16

A man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even when we have believed in Christ Jesus, we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified.

2 Thessalonians 3:5

May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the steadfastness of Christ.

Ephesians 5: 15, “Therefore be careful how you walk, now as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil.”

Proverbs 4:23

Watch over your heart with all diligence, for from it flow the springs of life.

Psalm 139:3

God is intimately acquainted with all our ways.

“Eve was not taken out of Adam’s head to top him, neither out of his feet to be trampled by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected by him, and near his heart to be loved by him.” –Matthew Henry

I am a math teacher at a middle school. I've been teaching for 4 years, and I enjoy it more and more. I like educating and inspiring our future generation. I like helping students and to see them learn and grow. As an educator you are a role model to instill in them character traits and values. Even though it is one of the hardest jobs, it is the most rewarding.

I would like to become a Biblical counselor, so I can help and encourage people to respond and to live out Biblical principles.

I was born in Armenia, lived in Russia for some time, and I love living in America. We are beyond blessed here in US in so many ways. Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
