For the Sake of the Call

...A small glimpse into the life of a girl who adores her Savior, Christ, and finds her delight in serving Him.

I'm the eldest of five children in my family and love them all dearly. :) I've been a Christian since the age of five and have served in church ministry alongside my family for the past fifteen years. I love to sing and enjoy playing violin, piano, and harp, among other instruments. I've worked in the worship ministries of this area since the age of seven. I think I've found one of my life works in composing music; the Lord has sent many songs to me, and I'm trying to be faithful to share them with those for whom they were meant. I teach music lessons several days a week and have realized what a joy it is to influence so many children and others for good. Soon, I'll be opening a music store, Hearts' Home Acoustics, in Boerne, Texas with some precious friends. We'll specialize in exellent instruments and will have a music school, too. I've just graduated from Louisiana Baptist University with a major in Christian Education, a major in Music, and a minor in Bible Studies and Theology. What a blessing to have completed that chapter in my life! Last, but certainly not least, I'm now engaged and soon will be marrying my best friend. How abundant is God's goodness...

Hello, sweet friends! I realize it's far too late for me to be sitting here, enjoying the pleasures of conversation with you all, but I simply can't help myself. :) In just a few fleeting hours, I'll be boarding a flight bound for Luhansk, Ukraine. What wonders hath God wrought! While there, I will be greeted by two weeks' evangelism missions and music ministry. I'm entralled with the provision of such rich opportunities for the advancement of my beloved Lord's kingdom, and I can't wait to see all that He will do in the coming days. More than all else, I'm praying that this endeavor will bring great glory to His name; it's the highest calling I could ever hold--to bring Him pleasure and honor... God be with you, my dear friends! Lord willing, I'll hope to be soon rejoining you here. :)

Shalom!

Hello, my dear ones! I have been fair-weathering and have long since left you here. I am very sorry, loves... I always pray that none in my circle of influence judge my Father God too harshly by looking at me; it could never be fair. When I have forsaken, He remains faithful. When I have forgotten, He remembers. When I am failing, then is He victorious. All that is good in me is solely birthed of Him; all that is bad is simply a reflection of my failure to embrace His presence in my soul. So look on, my friend, and mark the measure of a man in looking at me, but know ever that my faults are mine alone to bear and that my merits are solely Christ's. I pray that my life may be lived in such a manner as to be worthy of His high calling; I desire that honor only would be brought to this Name most beloved by my heart... Good night, my dear ones... and thank you for continuing to stand beside me. All my love...
