Hi everyone, I'm a Kiwi (hence the username) who's been in Australia for four a half years. I'm 21, work part time as a pharmacy assistant and I'm in my first year of a Bachelor of Science (Biotechnology).
I've been a Christian for most of my life. About a year and a half ago, I was at a low in my relationship with God - I was always planning on reading my Bible more, finding a good church, praying more, etc etc - but it never happened! I'd been praying for quite a while for motivation and inspiration to be a better Christian and to do all those things I mentioned, and my prayers were answered when I met my now-boyfriend. He's a Christian as well and he has been a big source of inspiration and strength for me and I am much closer to God now.
I'm now really wanting to work on making God the absolute centre of my life and putting him first, others second and myself last. I'm particularly interested in learning more of the Bible and finding those areas that God wants me to be, where I can be an ambassador for Christ and help to bring others closer to him as well! I'm definitely looking for more of what the mission statement of this forum says - Christian fellowship, encouragement, inspiration and strength - that will help me to entrust myself to God fully and do His works. Hopefully I can also be a source of inspiration to people and participate well in this particular Christian family! I'm looking forward to getting to know people!
