The greatest love story ever told is between Jesus Christ and Kari. He loves just spending time listening and being with me. He loves everything about me. He is a romancer. Just look at the sunset and the flowers. I find hearts everywhere I go. He takes care of the little things like having the neighbor next door make a path in the snow to my door and clear my sidewalk. The neighbor also brings in my trash cans and reminds me when it is a day we can water our lawns. The littlest desires of our hearts He fulfills. He meets our greatest longings.

These are very real places. I have looked into the fires of hell and sobbed my eyes out. It is terrible to think of being separated from God.
I have also played in heaven and enjoyed the goodness and breathtaking scenery. Look for ways to share Jesus with the world. The good news is to good to not share and the bad new to horrible to ignore. God desires that everyone would be saved and spend eternity with Him.

God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. His goodness does not run out.

I asked God what His name for me was and He said "cupcake". "Cupcake?" I questioned. "You are sweet and oh so perfect with a cherry on top" He said.

This was our Daisy bible verse back when I was in Missionettes.

I remember a vision I had where God was behind a desk and when I walked up to Him He said "Let me read the story of Kari to you" I listened for awhile and then stopped Him "that is not true" I said. I was mean and ungrateful. He said "No, Kari this is the true story. This is the story I know".

This song means a lot to me because I feel like God is saying that I have only glimpsed His goodness and what He has in store for me.

I went hiking and while resting on a rock near a water fall I had a vision and God showed me how He had me hidden in a cave and I looked and there was a little bit of light coming through and He said that He was going to crack the cave open and I would see a whole new world.

When I was fourteen I started getting sick at first it was a flu that never went away.  I remember feeling like my arms and legs had weights attached. I was allergic to everything. I touched plastic and it burned me. I could not go to town, church, or family vacations. I had an oxygen mask. I wanted the nightmare to end and yet it got worse. I was allergic to everything. I was the bubble child and nobody knew how to help me.

On October 15, 2006 I encountered the God of breakthrough and my impossible became possible through the healing power of Jesus. I had been sick for a long time and while I believed God would heal me one day. I always put it off to the future. In our home church the Pastor read the story in John 9:1-7 where the disciples asked Jesus “who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answered, “neither...but that the works of God should be made manifest in him”. This story hit me because I felt that I had done something to be so sick and here was Jesus saying that He just wanted His glory made known. I started asking God why not now? I had up to that point believed He would heal me someday. I had had a vision and in the vision a baby was born named Josiah. He had red hair and God said that when Josiah was born I would be healed. I had also heard God say that one day I would walk into a store and be fine and while that seemed impossible I felt faith being planted in me. My friend had a baby and the baby was very colicky and my friend prayed commanded the colic to leave and it did that same week the baby had thrush and she prayed and then wiped the thrush out the of the babies mouth. I heard those stories and realized it was the raw power of God that healed the baby. The baby had done nothing wrong, he did not have mind over matter or think positive thoughts. I knew that if my friend prayed for me I would be healed too. Fast forward next Sunday prayer request time...I am to afraid to ask but my friend puts her hand on my shoulder and heat radiates down my body and a voice says  “you are healed”. One of the ladies in the group stops looks at me and says I feel like you are supposed to pray for a lady in the group. I get up and as I start to ask for healing for this lady I realize that what I am asking for has just happened to me and I started crying. I spent the rest of the day afraid that I would wake up and it would all be a dream but it wasn’t and I was 100% free. My friend said when she put her hand on me she saw a picture of me wrapped in chains and them falling off and then a picture of a missing piece of DNA being put in.

I had a spot near the creek on the property I grew up on. I would run down every day and would sit on my log overlooking the creek below and read my bible. I can always hear God there and to this day like to visit. He is a God of friendship and intimacy. I have a personal relationship with Him and He tells me His secrets.

I was ten years old when I decided I wanted to be filled with the Holy Spirit. I watched at church as Pastor prayed for a group of people and they began to pray in another language. I went home and asked my Mom about it and she gave me a tract to read. I asked Jesus to fill me with the Holy Spirit and began singing in tongues. I drove my siblings crazy with all my singing. I remember being so happy and in love with God.

I remember watching an alter call at church and thinking I need to ask Jesus into my heart. I had always known Jesus and followed Him but the realization of needing to say a prayer was new for me. That night I asked my Mom about it and she had the honor of leading me in the sinners prayer and asking Jesus into my heart. My Mom says I was four years old at the time. I do remember feeling very happy.
