Hi! Life! what an amazing journey... I jsut want to start by sharing a little about my journey..
I grew up in Corfu, Greece.. A beautiful island.. We moved to Australia when I was 9.. I didn't lose that feeling of 'being' lost for several years.. It led my to search for the truth of why am I here? is there a God?..
This journey lasted for almost 15 years! I travelled to other countries looking... I read whatever I could, did every course available, became a yoga and kung fu student for several years.. and the list really goes on and on!!! the emptiness in my soul, in my heart was getting bigger though! I had no peace! I had no joy! I was still very desperate to have fulfillment.. So I kept persuing the latest spiritual craze whatever it was then!
12 years ago, the God of the universe who had been calling me by my name became real to me! I responded to His message to me.. to what Jesus of Nazareth said.. "I am the way, the truth and the life".. noone comes to the Father but by Me..
Truth is, my life changed! from the iside out.. God began to transform me from the inside out.. the 'hole' in my heart started to fill with hope, peace and love.. My cup has been overflowing!
Today, I still seek Him! I still need to empty myself of 'self' and allow His life and love to fill my being.. the difference is now I have become 'alive'.. I heard once someone say, Jesus didn't come to make bad men good, He came to made dead men alive.. I totally get this today! I am alive from the depth of my being, excitied to be God's beloved and filled with hope for the future...
Looking forward to sharing my journey with you :-) xxx
