Well where do I start with these things??? Sure there’s always the basic info. For example I am 24 and graduating from college in less than 10 days!!!! WHOOOHOOO. But seriously getting back to the about me part. I am sure theirs things I would only like to say if someone would ask me. I haven’t always been the best with making myself sound like a super star. This about me requires me to define who am I?
For years I struggled with my identity. Trying to find a place in the world and looking for love in all the wrong places. I came from a broken home and had experienced abuse in multiple forms. I tried coping in negative ways including self harm and anorexia. I can honestly say I was lost. I was broken and living in darkness. I always knew about my savior but I ran from Him.
I grew up a church and always considered myself to be a child of God but my relationship with him was almost like a roller coaster. I had so many road blocks in my life but somehow God always called me back to him. No matter how far I ran from him, I always turned back because I knew I had a calling deep inside of me.
At 17 I was in Swaziland walking down a dirt road on a mission trip with Adventures in Missions when I heard God speak, “Prepare your heart for worse conditions”. This is when I knew I would one day be called to go on the World Race.
So here I am 7 years later. Redeemed and restored and ready to go out and let God use me and grow me into who he has called me to become. I am chosen and I am loved.
So back to the question who am I? Well I am simply me. Beautiful whirlwind and Gods chosen masterpiece. I am so excited for how God is going to grow me in helping build his kingdom for the nations.
My long term goal in life is to start a non-profit to help inner-city kids get out of gangs. I know that the world race is another stepping stone in my life to help get me closer to my goal.
