Heyyo! It’s me Sammie and welcome to my World Race blog!

I’m so excited to embark on this amazing journey God has called me to and I can’t wait to bring you along with me! 

Now before we get into the good stuff I’d love to tell you a little bit about myself through the eyes of the people who know me best! I reached out to several of my closest friends and asked them: ‘When you hear my name, what are some of the first thoughts that come to your mind. What makes Sammie, Sammie?’ 

Here’s how they responded.

Chris: When I think of Samantha, I think of someone who’s a smart and can-do girl– Shes always pursuing something, She cares deeply for her friends and family, and she loves a mental challenge. I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone more well-rounded than her.

Kara: Spunky, Ocean scenery, Woods, Loyalty Fearlessness, Grit, Softness, Openness, Creativity, Hard working, Dedicated, Sunshine (personality and imagery), Playfulness Goofball, Gentleness, A walking oxymoron of character traits, Encouragement, Words of affirmation, Jack of all trades, master of many more, Welcoming Home–Home as in, you can take literally any place or group of people and make it feel so secure and comforting that it can feel like home to complete strangers. You’re like a walking emotional home for people.

Kelly: Intelligent, sharp mind, can do girl, figures things out quickly and easily, knows how to do all types of things especially technology, Peaceful, very easy going, and easy to get along with, thoughtful, generous, sensitive to God and others, helpful, willing to serve, kind hearted, a pleasure to be around, a delightful person, woman of God, beloved by those that know her, capable, responsible, talented, gifted by God, teachable, a good and faithful friend, over comer, prayer warrior, sound minded and stable, Hard worker-good work ethic, Loyal, enjoys having fun and laughing and deeply loves.

Emily: When I think of Samantha, she has a heart to know and please her Heavenly Father. She’s got a heart to care for people and love them, and love em’ hard.

I love that she is aware of how her life can affect those who don’t know Jesus and all THIS SISTER wants to do is to pray with them and no doubt they encounter His love through her life. She’s got a smile that shows the joy and delight of our God.
She’s vulnerable, creative, she includes people and makes them feel like they belong and that they’re a part of what’s happening. These are just a few things that stand out. Samantha you’re a rare one! 
 
Wow, as I read these responses I can’t help but to think how blessed I am that God gave so many great traits. I can honestly say they hit home and summed me up to a T! It’s so crazy to think that we are all created unique and special. God is the potter and we are the clay. He made us all perfect having our own uniqueness. You were made for a purpose. God has a plan for everyone and we are all an individual member of the body of Christ. We are his masterpieces. As you grow more and more as a Christian you will truly see how special and unique God created you.
