There was a raging storm...no seriously... and I was born and out popped a rainbow. No lie, you can ask my mom.
I wasn't supposed to be born anyways.  I was breech, and didn't have quite enough room to wiggle around, so Mom had to have a C-section, and there I was! Healthy as a baby.... well as a baby!
It made it special that I was alive, and perfectly healthy, and then a rainbow showed up.  :)

I was raised in a very Christian home with just my mom and I; and in a dynamic youth group.  My mom helped me to understand early on what it meant to have Jesus Christ come into my life, knowing Him personally as my Savior.  I was saved when I was six years old, and ever since then, I have done my absolute best as a human to serve Him to the best of my ability.  

When I was 10, I started going to an amazing Christian camp called Brookhill.  I met so many counselors there that were there to teach me more and more about what the love of God means, and how to show it to other people around me.  I knew then that I wanted to re-dedicate my life to the Lord, since I had a fuller, better understanding of what a follower of Christ was and is. 

I'm 22 now.  And am still trying to understand what being a follower of Christ is.  It's a constant struggle.  Between the this world and the eternal kingdom awaiting.  I've been through my fair share of rough patches. I've been through my fair share of uphill swings.

I'm the single one of the group.  I am in a season of "being alone".  Let's just say I absolutely despise it.  But, I can't even begin to explain how thankful I am for it.  The Daddy Daughter time I get with my Father is absolutely indescribable.  To have this time alone with my God... Wow..

He shows me so much on a daily basis that I never took the time to realize in the past because I was too involved in myself and my wants.  But, He stayed by my side.  Waiting patiently.  For me.  Because He LOVES me.  Because He sees me as WORTHY.

That's my God.  That's also YOUR God.  Take hold of everything He has given you.  No matter where you are at in life, no matter where you have come from, no matter what you are going through, He there's. Grab his hand.

In Him,
Beth
