| Introduction | Wow...About ME? Wife to Shawn.Mother, Teacher, Nurse, Counselor, Cook, Maid, and Referee to Chelsea, Shannon, John-Daniel, Salome, Sean (Mikos), and Michael. Yep that's right SIX. But that's not really about ME is it? To some degree I am defined by what I do but the real ME can only be truly defined by who I belong to. I am His. I am favored in His Kingdom. I am the King's daughter. Despite my almost overwhelming desire to be liked, my tendency to yell, my lust for anything sweet, and my almost crippling problems with procrastination; He sees something in me worth enlarging. I love so many things more than I do Him. He knows me better than I know myself, yet He still is in love with me and longs to see my face and hear my voice. He keeps calling me. Daily He intrudes in the life of this oft times angry woman and I can't shake Him. I don't want to. I want to be His entire. I want to burn with lust for His presence, His will, His Words...His holiness. I want to obey Him without question. I want to know God. This is ME; an unremarkable and very imperfect person who has heard and answered the call to seek the only living God. I am not alone. |
| Interests | Writing. Working out so I won't be in my 40's, overweight, and out of shape anymore...my goodness I can't walk up a flight of stairs without getting breathless and when I run it feels like I'm carrying a ton of bricks, nothing fits and...oops I'm ranting. Sorry. |
| Favorite Movies | Anything like The Last Samurai, 300, Gladiator, Crouching Tiger, Wolverine, Glory, Matrix, etc...I like movies that stir up the fight in me. Also Up and Evan Almighty..God used these movies to really speak to me about His heart. |
| Favorite Music | Keith Green, Jason Upton, Heather Clark, Misty Edwards...prophetic music with a call to go back to the cross...to be willing to die to this life and embrace the eternal. |

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? Luke 6:46 (King James Version)
