My story with God
I grew up in a Christian family. I accepted the Lord a number of times due to childish fears but I know God honored one of those prayers of sincere plea for His salvation and forgiveness. I used to think little of my testimony because it wasn't dramatic and exciting but through the years, I realize the amazing mercy and protection God has shown in that He protected me from my propensity to make stupid choices and from serious regrets that could have resulted from my rebellious ways. My life is a miracle. He has given me eternal security and a meaningful life to live. I find life fulfillling knowing who and what I live for -- and that I can have a perpective that has eternal value and purpose, full of hope and love.
Other stuff about me:
It was never in my plans but I have become involved in politics. It stemmed from the fights I waged against government control -- for the right to be left alone in raising the children that God gave and entrusted to me and my husband. I'm now growing to understand the importance of everybody being active about civic issues as we promote Kingdom principles. I never realized that we can't care about our community without impacting other institutions that shape our culture and society. It gives more meaning to being salt and light.

    FUN! So great to see you here! I am taking calls right now for FOF and saw a tiny little picture pop up on one of my screens that looked MUCH LIKE my great friends... and it WAS! Look forward to catching up with what is happening with your family - hope you can upload some more family pictures. I've been working OT this mo. and haven't had time to do that. Did you see Karen and Bill's pictures here? Karen was able to add quite a few - can't even recognize all these MKs anymore - your's included! J and K still talk about your girls and how they miss them. Jenna is on here - maybe the girls will be able to connect! Blessings to you all and hugs to the kids! Wendy

    It gives you instructions for how to do this. Keep in mind you need to add exisiting members as friends before you can send them a message. You can also invite other friends to become members of TheNET from your email address books too.

    By the way, I saw your article in the Focus on the Family magazine a couple months ago. How cool! I know someone famous. Greetings to Mark and the girls!

    Greg and I were able to volunteer at the Truth Project training when FOF had the last training here in the Springs, so we got to go for free! Nice! We've been so busy doing Firm Foundations with our home group that we've not taught it yet. May be starting it soon, however. It IS a great program! Hope yours goes well!! Will send you an email.
