Testimony

A bit about me

I discovered my love for abstract art in high school. I love making slab pottery art, especially the kind with noses attached!

My testimony

My testimony does not have much to do with fudge or pottery. It has everything to do with a loving God who I have grown so much closer to over the last year and a half. I trust Him with my life because He has shown His goodness and sovereignty over and over again. I grew up in a very dysfunctional childhood surrounded by mental illness and drugs and the toxicity followed me into adulthood. Only recently have I discovered how much God loves me and has a plan to use all the bad for His good. This is His promise for those who put their faith in Jesus Christ. Enjoy some good scriptures from the Bible below for encouragement!

Romans 8:28

“We know that all things to work together for the good for those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose.”

Proverbs 3: 5-6

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding; acknowledge Him in all your ways and He will guide you on the right paths.”

Psalm 27: 1-4

“The Lord is my light and my salvation-whom should I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life-of whom should I be afraid? When evildoers come against me to devour my flesh, my foes and my enemies stumbled and fell. Though an army deploys against me, my heart is not afraid; though a war breaks out against me, still I am confident. I have asked one thing from the Lord; it is what I desire: to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, gazing on the beauty of the Lord and seeking Him in His Temple.”

Romans 12: 1-2

“Therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.”

2 Corinthians 12: 7-10

“Therefore, so that I would not exalt myself, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to torment me, so I would not exalt myself. Concerning this, I pleaded with the Lord three times to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness”. Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more about my weaknesses, insults, catastrophes, persecutions, and in pressures, because of Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong”.
