Who am I?


 I never tire of this view! This is a picture taken from our front porch. We have been very thankful for this beautiful place we call home for now! 

As we learn more about GOD the more we realize how small we are and how great a privilege we have to serve a wonderful loving Heavenly father! Knowing who we are in Christ is of utmost importance in order for us take our place beside JESUS, seated in the heavenly realms, that's what the Word of God says!  I'm no longer known as a sinner saved by grace, although it is clear that by grace I am saved, but more than that God has chosen me, He has seated me with JESUS, and Jesus is the ruler of all! For the time being we are living in this earthly tent but soon we will be swept up to live forever in GODS presence! For now the enemy is the ruler of this world, but JESUS has overcome this world, and we can too, abiding in JESUS the author and finisher of our faith! Connected to Jesus the true vine, we will bear much fruit!
