about my journey

I have gone to church all my life, but over the past few years I have felt a new awakening. I feel God's presence in my life like never before.

Before I felt I was just going through the motions ~ attending church, reciting creeds and prayers, singing familiar hymns...but I felt numb. Somewhere along the way, I had lost focus on God and it became only about me and my time.

Church became a chore.

But God never abandons, even when I do. He found a way to break me out of my safe routines and opened my eyes and heart to His Word and Deeds.

I feel renewed.

And excited.

And scared.

For so long, I have been walking in a daze. And now I have awoken. I am disheveled, imperfect and broken. But God is gently leading and I want to follow.

This blog reflects my journey and my quest to see God in my everyday life. I still have a long way to go...
