Hi Come on in, get comfortable....I'm thrilled you are here :) I look forward to taking this journey with you. I just love writing, and although I love the written and spoken word, I am an amateur blogger extraordinaire! :) But, if you can stand it and you'd like to join me.....let's go!
If I may, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Gina, 43, married to the most wonderful man, mother of two kitrons, and a very blessed child of God. I'm sure as we go I will touch on all of these aspects of my life at some point and more.
I guess the most important thing that you could ever know about me is that I am a born again Christian. My Lord and Savior Jesus captured my heart at the age of 32, and set me free from a life of confusion, deception, bondage and real lack of any purpose. I am eternally grateful for all that He has done and although I certainly am not worthy of such lavish love and could never repay Him, I hope and pray that the rest of my remaining years will be a reflection of that gratitude. Because of Him, my life has drastically changed...beautifully and for the better.
It hasn't always been that way though....you see, as the title of my blog reflects, I can certainly relate to and identify with the woman at the well. I guess the down and dirty, nitty gritty details aren't really what is important here. The only person, the only thing that is important and that has made the only difference is Jesus Christ. He knows everything about me, even things I don't have the capability nor desire to truly know. But just as the woman at the well, He continues to lavishly quench my relentless thirst for truth, love, purpose, forgiveness and fulfillment. If you can envision....the last puzzle piece has clicked in and the deep, dark, echoing, cavernous hole in my heart has been continually filled. I have a long way to go in my journey with Him and I certainly don't have it all figured out yet. But I want to share with you....The most awesome part to have figured out is...even if there wasn't a Heaven (which please, let us make no mistake....there 100% is WOO HOO) all I've ever really needed is Him and His Word. And although I could die at this moment complete, I relish the fact and eagerly anticipate growing more in Him and getting to know Him, His will and His kingdom.
Come, my dear friends....join me at the well
Congratulations on your new blog! I'm looking forward to your posts. Have a great day.

Thank you Gina. I really enjoy your writing. I also have told people I relate to the woman from the well. I won't go into the details either. I am so grateful for His grace. The good news is because of this woman many believed, and many more believed when they heard Jesus. It encourages me that He can use us to bring news of the kingdom. Thanks for doing that today!
