The Butterfly

Since being diagnosed with type one diabetes at the age of seven, life has thrown me all sorts of highs and lows. Accepting Jesus back into my life was the best decision I have made. God has completely changed everything in my life. He has lead me to peace, and understanding, and love, like nothing else ever could or nothing else ever has. God knows me, every part of me, and loves me completely, just as He does everyone else. He has taken almost every part of my life and transformed it in ways that I never would have thought possible because I made the choice to let Him in my heart. I spent years of my life having strong faith until life got hard around my freshman year of college. I began to run away from God, but trying to explain Him away, is impossible.

God has fundamentally transformed my life and is still working in my life in ways that I have no knowledge of, as he is with everyone else. A relationship with God is possible for every person, you just have to draw near to Him and accept his everlasting love and He will draw near to you. Since moving back home to continue school I have seen Jesus work in my life in many ways. My faith is stronger than ever before and I found my passion in ministry.
