Welcome! Thanks for visiting my personal blog, where I will be sharing posts about my new found salvation in the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! I will also be sharing my love of food in various recipes posts.
God's redemption of my life is inspiring me to share His message of salvation with the world, and give Him the glory, honor, and praise in the process!
Praise Him in the highest!
