Remember.

I have only been posting on this site for a little while now.  I still have to sit down and think, Why did I start writing here?  What was my objective?  Did I have one? and the answer is simple.

I did start writing here with an objective.  I want to share my life in hopes that somewhere, somehow I can touch the lives of a hurting soul that can relate to me.  I want people who are broken, lost or lonely to find this, and feel some inkling of hope.  I believe that any encounter can be a positive one, and I want others to see that.

I also want to write about the love of Jesus.  The everlasting, unmeasurable love of Jesus, that I have been a living testament to.  I am not always good at putting that into words.  But I believe that for most of us, it is even more difficult to put that into actions.  I hope this site will help me, personally do both.

God has guided me through some tough times.  I have made it, sometimes a little roughed up, sometimes I made it just as I didn’t think I could take another step, but I have made it, and each experience has made me stronger, and I have learned more than I could ever hope to know.

When I look at myself in the mirror, I see stories, I see hope, I see Jesus.  There is no way I could have made it this far without him.  I have stories, CRAZY stories, and I will share them, in hopes of letting people have an encounter that they truly need.

Have you had an encounter that has truly changed your life?  Please share!
