Hi, I’m Riely!

Well Hey there! 🙂

I’m really excited that you’re going to be sharing my journey with me for the next 9 months!  Man, God has got some crazy amazing stuff planned! But first…… an introduction…

Hi, I’m Riely! I love life, I love love, and I love Jesus!!!!

I'm 18, and from the gorgeous lil tourist town of Lake Geneva, WI

.

God has put me through one heck of a journey and I have loved every beautiful and broken road I’ve traveled because without them, I wouldn’t be who I am. In fact I have no idea who I’d be, so I’m thanking God I didn’t have to see! God’s got such an amazing plan for our lives and I’m just trusting, listening, and rolling with everything He tosses at me! Each and every day I’m reminded that all things are possible with with Him and I've got nothing to fear. I continuously pray that He breaks out of the box I always try to put Him in! I’ve learned to let go and let God take over, because I’m weak on my own. I wanna set the world on fire for Him, and shine His light for all those lost in darkness.

God's calling me to be a Christian recording artist & worship leader, and to begin a ministry of my own. But recently, God placed in my hands the opportunity to see the world through His eyes. So instead of going to Nashville for school in 2012… my 2012 will be filled with Holy Spirit led adventures as I journey for 3 months in Honduras, 3 months in Thailand, and 3 months in South Africa. I am so excited to praise the Lord’s name all over the world, and to bring the stories and lives of the people I've met back to the States with my music.

Fast Facts:

My family is my everything. I love them to pieces and they're my support system.

I am so incredibly blessed to have such an overwhelming amount of support surrounding me in my
community.

I'm super outgoing, and bubbly, and fun. I love life, I’m always optimistic and positive, and, when it comes to things that my heart is set upon, I’m EXTREMELY hard working and determined. I’m a very competitive person and always strive to do my best in whatever I do, because my best is all I can give, anything less isn’t good enough.

I’m independent and headstrong. I'm a very coachable person and take direction well, and I am also a leader. I’m athletic.

I love hanging out with my friends and family, I love having a good time, I love smiling, and being with a lot of people. I love the quiet moments, too, when worship just washes away the rest of the world around me, and it’s just me and the Holy Spirit. I love deep conversations, and the pointless goofy ones too.. I love to talk, and I love to listen. 🙂

I'm really crazy and energetic sometimes, but I can be calm and chill too. I dislike being bored and wasting time.. a lot. I love to laugh, I love to smile, and I love to love and teach others to do the same. 🙂
 
Adventures are the greatest. Road trips are my favorite.

I would live under a tin roof, with cracked boards, sleeping on a concrete floor, with no running water, or electricity, and where the only shower's a river in the middle of a rain forest, and be the happiest girl alive as long as I’ve got Jesus. I would hike to mountain tops to watch the sunset and sing my praise to God on the edge of a peak.

All I need in this life is my Bible, my guitar, water(even though I don't like the taste of water :)), and my Jesus.
 
I LOVE WORSHIP!!!!!

I could dance in an empty studio for hours on end. I could sing praises every second of every day. There’s nothing I love more than being on stage, and in the lights for God’s glory, and telling people about my Savior. I love to make people smile. 🙂

I’m gonna set the world on fire for Jesus Christ…. Come join me as we do so. 🙂

Blessings to you!!!!!

Riely Rae 🙂
