truth in weakness

About me

Gender Female
Location NC, United States
Introduction My name is Tanya, and I'm on a journey of embracing the truth that God lovingly knit my weaknesses into my being as a constant invitation to cling to the cross. And while that may sound simplistic, coming to grips with my humanity is the hardest thing I've ever had to do. But as others have been open with me about their struggles, and the aches in their souls, it has given me "permission" to be human, too -- which ironically, is incredibly empowering! And so I want to give you the gift of sharing my struggles, my pain. Not for your sympathy, but as a loving reminder that you don't have to have it all together, either.
Interests Hiking, Healing (from the inside out), & a good Hallmark commercial (Come on, you know you love them, too.)
Favorite Movies Sense & Sensibility, The Four Feathers, Little Women (because it makes me think of my 3 sisters), The Time Traveller (no, not The Time Traveller's Wife -- haven't seen that one)
Favorite Music I like a decent variety, but mostly listen to contemporary Christian music. And I have a huge aversion to country music, which makes me fit in so well here in NC (*snicker*). My all-time favorite group is 4Him; I only wish they were still together. Oooh, and Selah, too -- Aren't they phenomenal??
Favorite Books Beyond the Masquerade by Dr. Julianna Slattery, Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer

How do you pronounce the 'g' in bologna?

More importantly, how do you pronounce "water" if you're from NJ? Or "roof" if you're from Chicago? Or "Appalachian" if you're from NC? . . .
