About Me
Thanks for taking time to find out more about me!! I hope you find my website helpful and interesting for your family! I pray that God will use this site to give you a special blessing today.
I am a child of God, a wife, a mother, a daughter, a teacher. I am striving to put Jesus Christ first in my life. This is a daily challenge since, if I am honest, mostly I want to do it my way. And I don't know why, because Jesus' way is so much better than mine!
I believe that God loved us so much that he sent his only son, Jesus Christ to earth to die for our sins. As a result, if you "confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead" (Romans 10:9-10) then you will NOT go to Hell when you die, but you shall live in Heaven with the Lord for all eternity. I know that if I were to die tonight, I would go to Heaven.
Moreover, because I believe in Jesus and am grateful for all He has done for me, I want obey and serve Him. Although the fact that I am going to Heaven after death will not change, I must choose to serve God each day, rather than myself.

Favorite verse (out of many):
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile." -Jeremiah 29:11-14
