I'm Julianna Alexis Hendrix.
By the grace of God, I am 20 years and am what I am.

I'm a sinner who is hurting.

Oh, but there is a song. Sometimes it's loud and war-like with pulsing drums. And at others, it is slow and soft like a cello... But nevertheless it is strong and victorious. It moves from note to note in truth and in promise. Each melody holds that strong, steadiness of affirmation. Its tone rings of nothing but freedom, justice and honesty. 

And somehow, it all echos back in prefect and simple humility.

This is Love.

Despite the discouraging screams of Satan, I sing back louder to You in praise the precious song You sang to me. It will never be as sweet as your sound Jesus, but you are making my arms strong for the task.
