Who am I?

Who am I? This is a question we all ponder during some point in our lives and we think we know who we are, but do we really? I know I started out as a daughter, sister, granddaughter, neice, and cousin then made friendships/co-worker and became a friend to many. Later on in life I then recieved the titles wife, in-law, and mom, mommy, mama, and an adopted mom to some kids in which I watch in my home while their parents work . I sit and wonder "WOW!!! I am one person with many names and titles but really who am I and what do people expect of me?" I think I finally figure it all out and then something or someone new comes into life and changes it all. The one thing for sure that I know now is that I am a child of the one True God, the daughter of the Most High, and He is the lover and keeper of my soul and everything beyond that shouldn't matter to much. It has taken me quite a few years to get where I am now and through this blog I hope to share more of my spriritual journeys and battles that I face on a regular basis with those of you who may be experiencing some of the same things in life and just need to know your not alone.

My name is Kristin and I am just your average small town girl living the crazy fun caotic life of a stay at home mom of three girls and for you that are stay at home moms you know this life is anything but easy but I wouldn't change a thing about it. I am not your typical "blogging" person either so bare with me through my english, spelling, grammar, and so on and I will do my best. I feel that God has been pulling on me little by little to open up and share experiences I have encountered in life that have brought me to where I am now. Even though all the experiences are not all good nor wise, they have in some way made me a stronger better person. I also don't pour my heart out to many (mainly in fear of being hurt or critisized) and through these blogs somethings may be very emotional and even heart wrentching for me to share so I ask that if your reading these to be sensitive to my emotions and know that I am NOT here to judge anyone, tell you how to live your life, and deffinately not here to say that the ways I choose do things in certain sitiuations is the best or only way to live a happy spiritual life full of joy. Only God can do those things for you and you NEED relationship with him!

I have been a Chriatian my whole life. One Sunday morning, when I was four, I was at the little old Baptist Church on the hill, here in Prosser, by the cemetary and I chose to ask Jesus into my heart. This is a day I will never forget. Even though I was young, I was choosing to follow Jesus and be a good girl so that someday I would get to go to heaven! My journey began here and was so simple. Our family was not your typical go to church EVERY Sunday family. We went off and on and ventured out to different churches often. As I got older and our family grew we seemed to go to church less often but I almost craved it and wanted to know more (and of coarse wanted be part of all the fun activities) so I began to find friends that went to church and attend with them and their families as well. I have to say I have probably been to just about every type of church possible. But my simple faith stayed just that, simple! I loved Jesus whole heartedly and knew I wanted to follow him but I still didn't understood the true meaning of Relationship vs Religion. I believe my main growth in my relationship with Christ began about a year ago when I fell very sick. This is where my story begins...
