So things to know about me….. I’m originally born in Colombia and raised in the sunshine state of Florida.
My favorite colors are orange and yellow. I think they are the colors that best describe me. I am bright and you can’t miss when I’m around 🙂 .
I enjoy meeting new people and I do believe that strangers are simply friends I haven’t met yet!
My passion is people, traveling, and our wonderful God!
My mission to discover the wonders of the world while giving back the love and care that God has given me.
The Lord says “For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV) Within his great plan for me, was the opportunity to pursue my college degree. I’m a hospitality management Graduate from the University of Central Florida.
I wanted you guys to know a little bit more about me from a different perspective =)I was inspired by a fellow racer to have my wonderful friends write a bit on who I am. Here goes …..
” Ana Maria is a woman who has a great zeal for the Lord, very bold, and courageous.”
“She is.. A lion. Brave and strong and armored with the sword of righteousness from the one who created us. She fights evil in this world with the burning desire to heal the broken. She is an inspiration for all those walking with Our Savior.”
“Ana in so many ways is so many things. This strong, beautiful, driven woman is relentless and determined. One to constantly challenge perspectives, to encourage, to love fully, and submerge herself passionately, Ana is this ever growing flower, radiant with God’s love. She speaks life, and seeks truth. One to have that ever-bright spark in her eye, natural to shine Christ’s love to everyone around her in the aim of digging deeper, my dear sister in Christ, is an adventure-prayer warrior, who day after day places the armor of God on herself to make an impactful difference at every opportunity. She truly is an inspiration, and I know, God has big plans for this one!”
“She is like a joyful box of chocolates. Full of wisdom and words that are sometimes hidden like nuts in a chocolate. Very good but you have to pay close attention to find them.”
” I see natural beauty and the authenticity of Jesus in her.”
“She is one of the most kind, courageous, and beautiful human beings I had the pleasure to meet. She is dedicated in following God’s word and actually contribute for something much bigger than herself. There are many things I could say about her but it all sums up to how an amazing friend and person she is.”
“This girl… She is a passionate, one of a kind, lover of the Lord and you will know it when you see her! There is a contagious and infectious light that beams out of her in every conversation and moment of her day. What I love most about her is that she yields to the Spirit in all she does, even before taking medicine she prays. She truly wants to rely on the Lord and be satisfied in Him. What a beautiful thing.”
“Ana Maria is like a little girl that wants to be a superhero when she grows up, except unlike the little kids that grow into adults, change their minds and “grow up”- she actually does become the superhero. If Ana sets her mind on any idea, the world better watch out because she is by far the most unstoppable person I have ever met and, I can confidently add, that I ever will meet. Ana sets out to make a difference in the world and it is simply inspiring how much she achieves. These past few years that I have had the absolute pleasure of watching her find herself in this world and I have also learned things about myself. And reflecting on that is when I realize that Ana has the power to show any person their true potential. She has such a beautifully selfless heart that all she wants is to know you, teach you and help you in any way she can. She is a true superhero.”
I am always amazed to hear the things my friends say, they truly inspire me and keep me going with my walk with Christ. I hope you feel like you know me a little better =)
My desire is that through this blog, you can join me in exploring the world from a different set of lenses and support me in changing the world one day at a time.
Xoxo,
Ana Maria Soto
