Who I Am

Today I felt led to just tell you a little bit about who I am. If you take time to read my simple blog, then you deserve to know who is writing those words and the heart that is creating those words.

I am not perfect and don't believe I am or ever will be. I have not always sought the LORD and even while proclaiming to be a Christian I acted as non-Christian as they come. I have been a bad wife, daughter, friend, and sister as a result of a lifestyle that consisted of living until the next party or weekend. I was selfish. I was rude. I was malicious. People love details of a past life, but I do not wish to glorify the world by showing you the ends and outs of my wrongs. Just know there are plenty of people that don't believe a heart like mine could change. The negative impact I had on them breaks my heart and I will forever regret those choices. Many of those people will remember a girl that did not act like a lady at all and was lumped into a category that I care not to name.

But, I am saved by Grace. In spite of the choices that nearly ruined the gift of life God gave me, He came down and rescued me from my whirlwind and chaos. He cleansed the layers and layers of dirt that caked my skin, that was under my nails, and in the crevices of my heart. He washed me white as snow.

He took a wild child and made her into a Child of God. I would have never believed that I could be or should be a mother-to-be or seeking to be a Godly wife.

God does the unthinkable. He's in the business of shocking.

I still like my tattoos, though. The number is above 3 and under 10, but that could change ;)
