Behind the Name

When I first created this blog in June of 2010, I was in the midst of my parents' divorce.  I had fallen into depression and had been abandoned by many of my friends.  I felt betrayed and alone.  I had left who I was in order to cope with all that was going on.  But, I came back to who God claims as His.  He claims me as a beautiful child of His.  He created me for something great and glorious to honor and glorify His name.  It was then that I realized the need to reclaim my existence in Him.  To allow Him to renew my life as He salvaged me from the trash I had become.  Although the first name I came up with, "Salvage Stories," emphasized that rescuing grace that God has for each of us, it didn't quite seem to capture exactly what I had felt.  It was more than just a rescue.  It was God reclaiming me as His own.  As a beloved child of His that had come back to her Daddy.  I want to be the creation that He intended for me.  I want to glorify His name because He is God!  He is our Creator.  And He has claimed me as HIS OWN!!!

Thus, this is my journey as He salvages who I was created to be in my Reclaimed Existence!

PS - You should also know that God is beyond gender.  SO - while I may use He, I might as well use She too.  :)
