A Word From Jenn...

     Hello All!  I don't know if anyone still visits this website--I don't think I've updated it in a couple of years now!  I'm sorry, but I actually forgot my password & login, and I no longer use the email address that the website had everything under previously...anyway!  It's nice to be back! 

     I am the proud mother of two beautiful girls who keep me going non-stop!  I also attend college full-time, but I will graduate this spring.  I am homeschooling my preschooler right now & most days she loves it--especially the songs! 

     I have been doing more writing again (thank the LORD!), and so I hope to add not only poetry, but some of my creative nonfiction to this website.  God bless you all!

 
      Wow...it's been a long time since I wrote on here 
so I thought it might be time for an update.  I am now 
happily married, my last name has changed to Martens. 
We have a cute little house that we completely 
remodeled ourselves.  We were married on August 16, 2003 
and I was finally able to take the trip to P.E. Island for our 
honeymoon.  I thank the Lord for Steven.  Hopefully, 
I'll be able to add some wedding pics on here after a while. 
I'm giong to IUS for graphic design, so perhaps my 
website will become more advanced after I learn a little more! 
Lord bless you all!

 
Hi Everyone.  I was going to put a little of my own 
testimony on this page, but after the past couple years, I'm 
going to dedicate it to my father, especiallys since he loved 
 the computer so much.
He passed away September 8, 2000, after a long, hard 
battle with cancer.  I sometimes wonder if he knew all along 
how it would end up, but yet he still kept fighting, and still
 kept testifying about the Lord.  He was 59 when he left us, 
far too young, yet he did live a good life.  He worked harder 
and longer hours than most people I know...infact more than anyone
 I know.  We will greatly miss him, and we now have such compassion
 for those going through the same heartache.  Nothing is worse 
than watching a loved one go through that, except if you don't 
know where they were going afterwards.  We knew where my dad was 
going, and we look forward to someday being there, too.
      I prayed through everything, read the Bible, listened 
to tapes, and I know this is how it must be.  I learned that 
no matter what, the Lord knows best.  Sometimes it's hard to 
see...to understand...and you really do have to know, you cannot
fully understand God at any point.  You have to walk by faith,
 not by sight, or else you are defeated before you even begin. 
 I know I've disappointed Him a lot lately...and I mean A LOT, 
but there is love beyond compare, and forgiveness.  You have to
 accept His forgiveness and trust in Him...live for Him.  He 
died for me, so surely I can live for Him.
Just keep on looking forward to that blessed day when 
we shall see our loved ones in heaven...I get so tired of this 
life, but we must finish God's purpose for us here first.
