First Hellos

Hello. Maybe I need an introduction. Maybe I don't. Here goes.

I am a girl who believes that life is worth living. I believe that God created us for so much more than all that we have settled for. To me, life is exciting. It hasn't always been. Before I began my relationship with Jesus Christ when I was 15 years old, I wished for death, and found pleasure and hope in nothing. To describe my life before I met Jesus, I was listless and hopeless, and literally felt like I was drowning in a dark black hole, and it was swallowing me up. These last five years have been a journey. I look back and can see how much I've changed and grown. How my identity has slowly formed into who I am and who I'm becoming. I see how much I still need to change and grow. Life is about growing. Life is about living.
 
I am creating this space because I need to. I jump for joy because of Jesus. I writhe in pain because of the struggles that still haunt me. Maybe if I write what I am going through, what I am feeling, and my experiences and hopes for the future, someone will benefit. If no one else, at least myself.

Anyways. This is me. Just a girl, living her life, grasping at the fuller things, and struggling to overcome the ghosts of who I once was. A girl who believes life is beautiful, and is passionate about serving her Creator. Living the life she was believes she was created to live.
