Who am I?
I was an enemy of God, sinful and evil before Him. (Eph. 2:1-3) Yet He came to this world (John 1:14) and died on the cross, where the full measure of God's Holy Wrath was poured upon Him. (Isaiah 53) Then Jesus arose from the dead (Romans 14:9), and asended to Heaven (John 3:13), where He now sits at the right hand of God (Hebrews 10:12).
I am given a new life (Colossians 3:10) and a new hope (I Peter 1:3). A life in Him, to be lived for Him. I am free in Jesus Christ (Romans 8:1), sin no longer has a grip on me (Romans 6:14).
I am being made like my Saviour (I Peter 1:14-16), to shine for Him (Matthew 5:16).

I am being made like my Saviour (I Peter 1:14-16), to shine for Him (Matthew 5:16).
I am an overcomer of all the sin, evil, wrongdoing, lying, and every malice there is that exists against God. No matter the trials in life, nor my own pride and stumblings, no matter what happens, I am in Christ, and nothing can separate me from His beautiful, perfect, and glorious love!
Romans 8:35-39
"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written,
“For your sake we are being killed all the day long;
we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."
I enjoy theology, politics, geology, farm animals, and writing. I am also into riflemanship, music, fellowshiping with believers, and having a good time playing sports or games with friends and family.
Parts of this blog will be devoted to my pursuits in midwifery. I'm sure this will be explained in much better detail in following posts. ;-)
So, why am I blogging here?
So, why am I blogging here?
I'd like to write out the things that God is working in my life, maybe just to write them out for a record, maybe something might encourage you on your walk with the Lord, maybe this is to be a record of my life so that the world might see just one more example of a sinner who lay's her life in the Hands of her Maker and they might see that He is God.
My purpose here is not to convince you of anything, that's God's job and He doesn't need my help, my purpose is to make you think...because what you believe is from what you think. ;-)
Soli Deo Gloria,
