Taking the plunge!

So, after much consideration, I've decided to jump into the world of blogging! This should be interesting!


I've decided to blog because I have a sense that God is up to something pretty cool in my life and I want to document it. What better way than through a blog? Right?!?! I want to invite others along on the journey that is my life...as random and crazy as it usually can be!


Let me introduce you to my life currently. If I started at the beginning, well...let's just say none of us are ready to dig into all that history just yet! I am currently jumping head first into ministry and I. ABSOLUTELY. LOVE.IT! I'm talking big puffy heart love it! It's exhausting and draining, but beyond fulfilling! I have no doubts that this is what God has called me to do. What it's going to look like in 6 months is anyone's guess, but for right now it's glorious!


Let me tell you about a few roles I play in my life  that I cherish! First and foremost a Christ-follower. I'm in a passionate love affair with my Savior! I thought I loved Him when I was younger, but I didn't have a clue! He's simply amazing! I'm never ceased to be left speechless by my Maker! He's pretty much the best part of my life! Okay...no pretty much...He's it!


I'm a sister! I have the distinct honor of being the older sister to the coolest little brother anyone could ever ask for! EVER! I hit the jackpot when I got him for a brother! He's not only my brother, he's one of my best friends! He's amazing! He's getting married in a few weeks, and I couldn't be happier for him! He did good in picking my future sister! 

I'm a daughter, cousin, niece, and granddaughter. These are roles I enjoy, and are roles that are constantly changing! Becoming a "claunt"....just a fun name for the role of cousin/aunt to my cousin's girls has been delightful! We didn't have little people in our family for a very long time. I now have 6 little ones in my life. They are so, so much fun! Who knew they would develop such fun personalities!

My cousin and dear friend Lisa and I

Reese

Me and Riley Lynn...my birthday girl!

Lastly, friend. It's such a lovely word! That someone chooses to have you in their daily life...wow! I mean your family, you're kinda stuck with them...of course in a good way, but friends, you choose one another! What a simply lovely thought! I have several of them. All of which had such flavor to my world! All are gifts straight from God!

Well, that's all I'm going to post for now. I want to keep you coming back for more...you know, play a little hard to get! Oh wait, I should probably explain the name of my blog! My name is Amber Faith. Faith is my mother's middle name. She got it after my Grandma had 3 boys. She said it took a lot of faith to have a girl. So then when Mom gave birth to me, she passed on that Faith! I love it! And I love the role "faith" has played in my life!


Okay, seriously I'm done for now!
