Hello to everyone! My name is Melissa. This is my first blog and my first post ever! I am nervous, but super excited! Writing/journaling has been a passion of mine my whole life so I am eager to begin this new journey!
I will first share a little bit about myself with you. First & foremost, I am a Christian (as I’m sure you gathered from the title of my post). I was born & raised in a small town in MS by loving Christian parents & around lots of loving family. I am now 44yrs old & have a loving Christian husband whom I actually dated for 2yrs in HS. I have 3 beautiful daughters, 1 beautiful granddaughter & another beautiful granddaughter on the way. Yes, ALL GIRLS, lol!
We live on a family road by my husbands parents & my parents live 10 miles from us. We both having loving Christian parents that have been married for many years & have raised us & help shape us into what we are today. We all attend a Southern Baptist church close to our home & are very involved. I absolutely love my church family! I have so many brothers and sisters in Christ that I can fellowship with! So as you can see, I am EXTREMELY BLESSED!!!
I have a nursing degree & worked 8yrs in the field, but for the past 10yrs have been a stay-at-home wife & mom. I love my life, but don’t be fooled into thinking that my life is perfect just because everything I’ve shared with you so far seems like a fairytale. We all live in a sinful world inside of sinful flesh that is a battle daily just to survive. In my posts to come I will share some of my life’s struggles with you, as well as ways that I’ve learned to cope with them. I look forward to each & every post to come!
