I can get lost here...thought I'd share! :)

diamond in the rough: I feel like who I am is always changing as I experience new things and God takes me through deep waters, the valley of death, mountain tops and beside still waters. I have a creative side that is constantly begging for attention. I'd rather craft than clean! I have three kiddos, 2 girls and 1 boy. My middle child has food allergies which is not just food but also intense skin care.I'm a country girl who is now living in the city, hopefully only for a season and not forever! I have dreams, high and lofty dreams. Like driving a Lamborghini, world travel and owning a hobby farm. I hurt for the hurting. One of those dreams is to have what I call a rainbow colored family. To give children a chance to be loved and to know who Jesus is. Most of all, my life goal is that Jesus will be seen in me. That I will decrease while He increases in my life. As one standing in sunlight, I am only a form, a shadow and the light of Jesus is what is most seen. I want my reactions and actions to be how Jesus acts and reacts. I have not yet arrived but I believe that greater is He that is me than He that is in the world. I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.
