Introduction God is faithful even when I am lacking. When I was young, I accepted Christ as my Savior. Senior year I surrendered my life to Him, attended Pensacola Christian College, and graduated Elementary Ed, Dec 1997. I started teaching elementary computer at NFC In Tallahassee. Living far away from family was hard at times, but the Lord blessed me with people to encourage me. After 8 1/2 years in Florida the Lord moved me back to NC/VA to be close to family again. If you would have asked me when I was eighteen, "What do you want to do when you get out of college?" I would have told you, "I want to get married, start a family, and teach." Many times God surprises us by changing our plans. My life has been a growing experience. Each day God is teaching me to trust Him in new ways. I'm learning to love Jesus. I don't know what God has for me tomorrow, but today I will praise and serve Him here where He has placed me.
