We are strangers on this earth, just passing through, but while we are here, we live and relate, we suffer and have joy, we impact others and others influence us. I have lived a long life already, experienced many things both good and bad. Born on a tropical island, I have lived and travelled in many parts of the world. I have worked, I have studied, I have homeschooled and have 7 children. But in all of this, I am still ME!! ;) No matter where I travel or what I do, I am still essentially the same person. One would hope, that we all grow up, mature and continue to evolve as a person into something better, someone worth knowing. What defines me, who I am, is it my job, my studies, where I have been, what I have accomplished? For me it is my relationship with the Creator that defines me, that gives me an identity, that determines who I am. No matter all the other stuff in my life, without God, I would not be who I am today. It is knowing Him, and His saving grace and love through sending Jesus to die for us that makes me a person worth knowing. I have been tested and tried as through water and fire. i have been refined and moulded through extreme difficulties and humbling experiences. The grace of God has kept me through it all, and He alone has created in me a personality that is joyful in all circumstances, loving and forgiving to all people, caring and compassionate. He has given me a heart of flesh and removed the heart of stone. I would have it no other way. I would not be ME if it weren't for HIM! This is my life, my testimony, and His grace!
