My God is Holy

" And one cried to another and said. Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory."
Isaiah 6:3

This week I was reminded how Holy God really is, and how He is so much bigger then our circumstances. It's so easy to live our lives each day and not even really give God a thought or see His handiwork. How much easier it is to allow ourselves to get discouraged and not see His great power in the midst of each day. He is incredibly Sovereign, and sees everything, nothing goes past His sight. How comforting it is to know He sees it all, and even when we begin to wonder God where are you in this, never once has has He stepped away from our circumstances. Although there is darkness all around us, there is an even greater light with far more power.
He sees it all! He sheds the light on the darkness, he sheds light on my darkness.

Okay so this is random but the other day this guy came up to me and asked me if I was italian. It made me laugh and honestly I really felt honored that he thought I looked italaian. I said Romanian but really he was pretty close. I was having a bit of a stressful day so it made my day.
Romania is never far from my thoughts, and I can't wait to go one day and see my family and be reunited!
Anyways....thats it for now

Crooked Chair

How do I fit all the pieces together? No longer can they go back nicely in the box Stuffed back in, and ready for another day They can’t, they won’t. Neither do I want them to. Raw Unsettled Exposed Vulnerable  Layers of Emotions Swirling No beginning And yet no end. A  massive mixing pot. The mind and heart Battling fiercely to distinguish  How to put it back together? Where do I go from here? Shame? No longer welcome Yet the remnants remain Messages from the past  Powerful, foreboding  Dark. Familiar Am I broken? Cracked beyond repair? Will I ever be fully mended? Is that even obtainable? I strive desperately for healing Yet for what gain?  Only to be side swiped. Jolted Joy? What the hell is that? So close Yet miles and miles beyond reach. In the mixing pot My chair is BROKEN It’s uneven, and not like the rest. Can it fit at the table? Is there room for my crooked leg? I have a limp from years ago. Life has left lasting impact. My chair is TAINTED Its di...

Perfectionism Vs Authenticity

I 've been reading a book lately called " The Gifts of Imperfection" by Brene Brown. It challenges me on pretty much every level and makes me really think about how I am choosing to go through life and whether I am claiming shame or authenticity,  or living in love and belonging. She goes on to talk about how choosing a life of authenticity is a   choice   and in today's world- that can pose a threat to many as our society has become all about appearances, having it all together, striving to look like everything is working as it should be, while meanwhile feeling like you don't belong or aren't good enough.  To be honest I would think that more often than not I would say I live in the opposite of authenticity, and perfectionism is a real struggle. Yet I know I am not alone in this struggle. I desire to be authentic, but that means choosing to be real, genuine and open and not allowing shame to overide true feelings of love and belonging. As a Christian, I wou...

Romania- Bucharest

Here are a few pictures of me in Romania. My time in Bucharest Romania was an amazing time one in which I will cherish for the rest of my life. I was able to be reunited with my bioligical family and it was an amazing reunion. I have known all my life that I was loved and had a family in Romania who loved me immensly and gave me up for adopted because of their great love for me and I saw firsthand how much of a sacrifice it was to give me up because they love me immensely. M y family ( which included all of Marianna,s family, and my brother and sisters) ended up coming to church with me which I was totally amazed by and know that God is working in my family's life. Not only does He love me, but He loves them and desires that they would all come to know Him. Roman Orthodox religion is very strong in Romania,which is grounded by many rituals. The fact they wanted to come to church was so amazing to me and I never asked them to come and they had decided they wanted to come even before...
