Meet Mrs. Dandelion
Revelifers meet our next writer Mrs. Dandelion. Please say hello!
Mrs. Dandelion, New York, NY
Age: 26
Occupation: Administration/HR aka Office Mom
About me: I grew up in Florida and have been attending church since I was born (My father and maternal grandfather are pastors). I accepted Jesus as my savior when I was very young but during those crazy teen years I struggled with my faith and lived a double-life- sweet, church girl by day and wild, crazy party girl at night.It wasn't until college I felt the freedom to decide whether Christianity was truly something I chose for myself or something my parents forced me to believe in. I went through a phase where I explored different beliefs but in the end I knew in my heart Christianity was for me because it wasn't about what I did or how much I could give to receive salvation but because God loved me and sacrificed his own Son to save me. No other God could even compare.
After this time of exploration, I experienced much growth in my faith during college and got heavily involved with a college ministry, missions and performing arts ministry. I met my best friends in college and my husband. We've been married for almost 3 years and look forward to starting a family one day soon.
Two years ago, we moved to NYC to fulfill our life-long dream of living in the big city. (doesn't that make me sound so country =P) I love city life but our transition here was one of the hardest things I've ever faced. However, I don't think I really understood how much God loved me until we moved up here. He has met every need and provided for us in such tangible ways. He has also stretched my faith and challenged me to live a life in obedience and honor to Him.
Random things I like: coke zero, arts and crafts, back scratches and flan
I hope Revelife will be a place where everyone feels welcome and comfortable in to share their faith and struggles. We want to encourage, edify and inspire through this site. God bless and thank you so much for your support!
two of my favorite places in the world- The Swamp in Gainesville, FL and New York City

So, can I just say...I love all your names! They're cute!
Ah, so in Natalia's Xanga poem, err rap...blue and orange does mean you're a gator. :) I was wondering about that!
Have a great day!
Ahh, welcome!! Welcome! And thank you for getting together, y'all for setting up Revelife. I really LOVE it!! Though I have to say there's a few conflicts. I have written total of 3 entries so far that have gotten lost.
Maybe it is just me. But I don't get it. Anyways, that's not what you're here for!! Welcome!! God bless.
@momma2babies34 - ah doh! one thing you can do is turn on backup: http://edit.revelife.com/editeditorsetting.aspx
