About Me

  • About Me: So born into a home of division it seemed, The truth is that much of it seems now a dream, For once what once was broken and torn down in two, Is whole and loved more than any human could pursue. Found in the depths of the darkness and scum, I had no vision of what I could become, But then came a river that would wash it all away, A river that flooded a life with what His love would say. Onto escape He took this hand and I saw He was dead, But soon He was risen, He is risen I said! He took it all, Jesus Christ is His name, This is new life, I will never be the same. Not ever to deny what love this is, This is the truth, this life is now His. So onto share this love even in weakness I stand, It is not by my might, but by His mighty hand.
