I'm so excited to get this going! Thanks for checking this out, it really means so much to me. I'm so grateful you came. Hope that you will relax and rest easy here. Settle yourself and take it all in, as I share my passion for writing about my experiences, and how, no matter what, God's love is very present every single time. Always with me, in all my struggles and adventures not of my own choosing. With me in the big stuff and the small stuff.

The most recent example of this: He was with me as I worked so hard to get this site looking at least neat and organized, even if not super inviting. Yes, this was a sad thing to behold - very untechy me trying to get this going. Like really trying. Watching YouTube tutorials where the guy went way too fast for me and I had to back up and watch over and over, and the icons he was clicking on for some reason weren't in the same places on this site I was working to create, (of course) but I didn't want to give up. Until I did. Thankfully, I had a couple of fabulous girlfriends with abundant expertise who stepped in to rescue me from my technically challenged self. You know who you are, and I'm so very glad God blessed me with you!

I can be incredibly stubborn at times trying to swim on my own where it's over my head, but I knew that this was important enough to admit defeat and throw up my hands in frustration and surrender.

Why is this so important? Because I long to share, need to share, what I'm learning, how I'm growing, how I'm just an ordinary person chosen by God to share my experiences. I want to show y'all my dance moves forward and backward in my life dance, and hopefully, you can benefit from what God is teaching me all along the way. I want to encourage and affirm you. I want to uplift you in understanding that you aren't alone in whatever challenge you face. I want to show you how with God all things truly are possible.

So thanks for coming and buckle up, because while this space will hold some light moments, you will also see the messy and real and hard. One thing I have learned over a very long time is that God loves to take messy and real and hard and make it beautiful, and its even better when shared with others who can be impacted by it.

Let's go!
