Poems flowed from my pen shortly after I was born again. The local paper published many of them and I was encouraged to continue writing.
Depression and its bitterness prevented me from being able to clearly hear God's creative songs hidden in my heart.
Many, many years would pass until God would empower me to completely overcome depressions grip.

Jesus? Stubbornness kept me from completely yielding to Christ long ago. Though born-again Fall 1978, I demanded God fulfill my desires not understanding that what I believed I needed was for God to fulfill my twisted lusts (unmet needs, my way). Eventually I would learn God cannot fulfill our unment needs our way. Neither will He force His ways upon us.
In all fairness, my emotional development was arrested by the lack of necessary nurturing and affirmation of who I truly was. It would take years of a dear 'spiritual mother's' standing in Christ's place for me to grow up and out of the place in which I was stunted emotionally.
I had also to learn to re-parent myself.
Knowing I have not yet arrived, I continue to seek to KNOW God intimately, for that is the way I have received most healing.
fitly joined echoes through my soul almost continually these days. Understanding that before the foundation of the worlds, God already fitly joined those of us who claim to be His children saved by grace, I look forward eagerly to meeting and connecting with those with whom I am already 'fitly joined' for His purposes.
Named CarolAnn by my parents, I was indoctrinated into the Roman Catholic Faith, but would much later discover much of that churches doctrines were of man, not of God. Therefore, I had much to be 'cleansed of' and much renewing of my mind to do.
Since April 2006, God has healed, cleansed, renewed my faith, taught me mighty warfare prayers and methods (though it's alwasy critical to listen to Holy Spirit), and holds me close.
My journey through depression's mucky, murky pits was like walking through hell itself. I thank my God that that is all behind me and I am completely healed.
Seeking His Face is my greatest delight and joy.

MY NEWS
God has called me to begin a new journey of faith and to follow Him into a whole new world for me. Beginning as soon as it can be coordinated, I will teach skin care beauty enhancement classes to women in local shelters and job retraining classes.
I can already see the excitement in faces as I share my testimony of how God transfromed me from someone without a face (literally) to someone who sees her face reflected in HIS eyes.
The excitement is so fresh and new I can hardly wait to begin! I never in my wildest imaginings dreamed of being is such a position.
