Aveline says
Hello, dear sisters in Christ! 🙂 I am Aveline from the Philippines, 28, and blessed to be single.
What I really love doing during my spare time is listening–listening to soothing Christian music, my recordings of unforgetable life events, friends telling me about their day and sharing with me their burdens, a loved one’s wise counsel, inspirational text or e-mail messages, the chirp of little birds and the rustle of leaves, and, of course, God’s still and sweet voice in the silence of my heart.
I praise and thank the Lord that though I may have lost my sight, He has allowed me to savor this gift not only of the capacity to hear, but more significantly, of the ability to listen.
Cindy says
Wow, Aveline! Praise God for you! It is so good to “meet” you. Thank you for being so open with us. I like listening to many of the same things you do. I am 56 years of age, and live in Wild, Wonderful, West Virginia, USA. God is so good to bless with this ability to “meet” people from so many different places. God bless you richly, sweet sister. Are you on Face book? If so, maybe we can become face book friends. On Face book, I am Cindy Bonner Fox. Love, Because of Jesus, Cindy.
