One of Mimi's favorite quotes is:"Napoleon Bonaparte once said about Jesus:
"Well then, I will tell you. Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne and I myself have founded great empires; but upon what did these creations of our genius depend? Upon force. Jesus alone founded His empire upon love, and to this very day millions will die for Him. . . . I think I understand something of human nature; and I tell you, all these were men, and I am a man; none else is like Him: Jesus Christ was more than a man. . . . I have inspired multitudes with such an enthusiastic devotion that they would have died for me . . . but to do this is was necessary that I should be visibly present with the electric influence of my looks, my words, of my voice. When I saw men and spoke to them, I lightened up the flame of self-devotion in their hearts. . . . Christ alone has succeeded in so raising the mind of man toward the unseen, that it becomes insensible to the barriers of time and space. Across a chasm of eighteen hundred years, Jesus Christ makes a demand which is beyond all others difficult to satisfy; He asks for that which a philosopher may often seek in vain at the hands of his friends, or a father of his children, or a bride of her spouse, or a man of his brother. He asks for the human heart; He will have it entirely to Himself. He demands it unconditionally; and forthwith His demand is granted. Wonderful! In defiance of time and space, the soul of man, with all its powers and faculties, becomes an annexation to the empire of Christ. All who sincerely believe in Him, experience that remarkable, supernatural love toward Him. This phenomenon is unaccountable; it is altogether beyond the scope of man's creative powers. Time, the great destroyer, is powerless to extinguish this sacred flame; time can neither exhaust its strength nor put a limit to its range. This is it, wh...Expand for more
ich strikes me most; I have often thought of it. This it is which proves to me quite convincingly the Divinity of Jesus Christ."
And this is a beautiful poem written about me by my amazing husband Matthew. How God has blessed me to put a man in my life that loves me so much....
Noemi: Daisy love
In a garden of many,
My fingers brushed against
Petals of life and color,
Stirring up sweet scents
Of nature's essence.
Feeling the cool earth
Beneath my feet,
I looked upon and praised
All the beauty
That flourished before me.
A daisy.
So imperfect
So wonderful
So lovely
Took hold of me.
I wanted her,
In my life,
To love, to cherish
And to protect
From the coming storm.
Kneeling down
To feel her delicate petals
Upon my cheek,
I smelled her fragrance
And smiled.
I observed her,
Followed her stalk
To the fertile soil,
And begun to sweep
away the dirt.
I slowly pulled her up,
Revealing the beauty
Of her hidden roots
Naked and exposed,
I knew I was in love.
The wind blew
Trying to take her with him,
I held on
And shielded her,
Promising to never let go.
My life has reserved
A great and loving space,
Only for her,
To grow
And be loved.".
More about Mimi:"I am the wife of an amazing, Christian man, and the mother of two beautiful boys. My main purpose in this life is being a loving and supportive wife and shaping my children's hearts spiritually...molding them into men of great character and integrity. I feel so blessed to have them! We have a Christ centered home. I serve in the CIM (Careers-in-Motion) ministry at my church, and also in the children's ministry playing keyboards and singing; it has been such a gift. I love all children, and I look forward to each and every Sunday that I am leading them as it brings me joy to see these little faces light up as they praise our God in worship. I am amazed at how much I have learned by looking through the eyes of a child. Music is my passion- playing, singing, and writing when I can. As I have gotten older and experienced this thing called life, I have learned that things just don't matter...but it's time and experiences with people you love that bring you happiness. We live pretty simple these days. Would love to travel more, but hard with little ones. There will be a time and season for that...:)".
