Stepping out

Welcome to the blog. As weird as it sounds, the ability to do this is an answered prayer (those who are close to me will know this to be true). I would love to tell you that I know what this blog is going to be about - but I don't. I do know I lay it down as a tool for Jesus Christ. Tears in my eyes even now-if I can point you to Him, encourage you in Him, and make you laugh & cry along the way - job done.
To tell you a little about me- I have two boys - whom I will refer to as man child 1 & man child 2 (for my own piece of mind- I tend to worry) and a wonderful husband who we will call Hunter Hubby (he'll hate it but so very true!) At the present time I teach in a high school so I get A LOT of time with teenagers. (Side note- pray for the ones you know. They so want to be loved and know they are valued). Just started writing some bible studies -only in house stuff- we will see where God takes that. It is His - He can go where He pleases with it.
Why call it "I choose"? Over the past few years that has been the overarching message God has put in my life. I choose who I will follow, how I will follow, what I will do. I choose who is Lord in my life. I choose, for I am chosen (1 Peter 2:4).
So I am glad you are along for the journey. It will be exciting- life with Christ always is. Thanks for checking in.

Wow, this is great! Choosing to follow Christ isn't always easy, but oh so sweet when you are walking in His will. I'm blown away on a regular basis as God is working in my life and revealing just some of what He has planned for me. I will be praying for you. Love your cousin - De
