Welcome!

I am so glad that you are here! I just want to take a few minutes to tell you a little bit about me. I am wife to a wonderful husband who I have had the pleasure of being with for nearly 11 years! I am also a mother to two sweet boys…and we have another boy on the way! I am definitely outnumbered! Hahaha! Apparently, God created me to be a boy mom, and I truly wouldn’t have it any other way!

I actually never imagined starting a blog. I don’t consider myself to be a writer and I don’t feel like I have very much to say, but apparently God does because near the end of last year I felt God tugging on my heart to start a blog. He instructed me to name it just what I have named it, Faith in the Fire. Obviously, it’s taken me a while to actually step out in obedience. As you can see, I finally took the plunge (for a number of reasons), but mainly because lately God’s been showing me just how important obedience is to Him. I want to walk right in His will for my life, and if I truly want to do that then I have to be completely obedient to Him…even when He asks me to step outside of my comfort zones. Well, I guess, especially then…because that is when He tends to surprises us and use us in ways we could never imagine!

With this blog I hope to spur others on into a deeper and more passionate walk with the Lord. I firmly believe that the depths of God cannot ever be fully reached, but I want all that I can have! I hope that I can fully express through these keys the kind of passion I have for God! I hope that by reading my story God will encourage you through whatever trials that you may be facing, not because I have it all figured out or have all the answers, I certainly do not! But as I have walked through some fires in my life, I believe the Lord has birthed in my heart a compassion for others who are walking through the fire in their own lives and I very much wish to be a conduit of God’s love and encouragement to you!
