Hobbies
As a woman of God, I use my free time to glorify God in so many ways that not only gives me a more intimate relationship with our Lord, but also encourage me to live a balanced life and gives me satisfaction in the simple things that brings me joy. Such as spending time outdoors, I call it my "prayer walk" - I spend one to two hours of walking and meditating in God's word and pray on it. Or I would do hiking and just enjoy God's creation and for the time of relaxation. I also enjoy listening to any kind of Christian Music, watch christian movies, I also have passion for painting and playing guitar, and lastly, the most important time in my day is reading my Bible.
