Why did you write "The Real Ariel" beneath your username? Which is also "The Real Ariel."

Doesn't seem like a particularly good use of your time.
Consistency and emphasis. If you learn nothing else from my page, it is that I AM the real Ariel.

(Real talk though, I don't remember entering it and I'm guessing when I did so I was confused and thought it was my username.)

When did you come to Christ? :)
My parents taught me about Christ when I was very young and they told me I had to make a decision if I wanted to believe and follow him or not. I went back and for several months I prayed to Jesus if he was real to send me a bird to touch. This sounds ridiculous and far fetched, but one day we were walking in a parking lot of an eating chain and I saw a cloud that looked like an angel. I took this as a sign that God was going to give me what I asked for. At that moment I see a bird land on a car. I walked over to it and it stood there as I pet it. I accepted Christ on the spot.

Since then my faith has of course become much more educated and built a stronger foundation, but that day was when it started for me.

Not far fetched at all, I would have believed too. I'm very much a lover of nature so I can relate.

Thanks for sharing.

What is the most important of your goals?

Also, if faith and logic seem to clash, which do you choose?
My most important goal is to be a light on a hill and to try and live in such a way that I am a reflection of the kingdom of God and His love.

Definitely faith. I'm not always the most logical

I'm an open book. Love to talk and will answer just about anything (though may pm if I deem it something that shouldn't be on public forum forever).

Hit me with your best shot!

That depends... African or European swallow? Either way, probably PM. Don't want to start any controversy.
