Jesus>Erin

I'm Erin.

I am saved by the blood of Christ.  He gave me more grace then I will ever deserve.

God has taken me on a journey this far in my life.  He has shut doors in my face, turned my world upside down and though it all, He has taught me how to praise Him in the hallway while your waiting for that next door to open.  Sometimes the best worship and the most insight comes while you are stuck in that hallway.

I taught middle school for four years.  After spending those four years encouraging my students to follow their dreams, I decided to do it for myself.  I left the classroom behind, despite having a college degree in education, and looked for a job that allowed me to use my passion and talents.

God placed special needs adults and children on my heart six years ago and has now place the calling and desire in my heart to love and serve them.

I currently work with kiddos who have Autism, providing community living services.  It was a leap of faith to take this job, but its crazy how different life is when you look forward to going to a job you love each day.

In my spare time, I'm working on my Master's in Expectational Education.  At this time, I have no plans to enter back into the classroom full time.  But I plan to use this degree as away to open more doors for me in the special needs field.

My to-do lists are long, but I strive to be the hands and feet of Christ, and I want to know at the end of the day that I have conveyed the message that Jesus > Me.

This blog will be a collection of my thoughts, prayers and desires.  I hope to share a piece of my life with you, to show you how the grace of God saved my soul, His never-ending love, and how he has called me to love Him and His people.
