| Vision ...That I may [actually] be found and known as in Him, not having any [self-achieved] righteousness that can be called my own, based on my obedience to the Law's demands [ritualistic uprightness and supposed right standing with God thus acquired], but possessing that [genuine righteousness] which comes through faith in Christ [the Anointed One], the [truly] right standing with God, which comes from God by [saving] faith. [For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope] That if possible I may attain to the [spiritual and moral] resurrection [that lifts me] out from among the dead [even while in the body]." (Philippians 3:9-11, Amplified). My desire is that I may convince others of this hope in Jesus...that we may become like Him, and as we progressively yield to His will, His ways, we may come into a place of such intimacy that we will enter into complete union with our God....so that the world will see Him when they see us...and He will be glorified in His saints! "The Spirit and the bride say,'Come!'" (Read all of Revelation 22:17) We are all called to be saints...let's bow before Him and yield completely to Him - spirit, soul and body! (1 Thes. 5:23-24, Amp) |

| Bio Sketch Sharon Killion lives in Elm City, North Carolina. She is the mother of two sons, Joel and Tyler. Joel is married to a wonderful, godly woman, Lauren, and they both have four lovely daughters, Moriah, Olivia, Kathryn & Bristol. She loves her new role as grandmother, a.k.a."Marmi." Sharon was called to Jesus when she was 23 years old. Although she had experiences with the Lord earlier in her life, it was in 1973 that the Lord really imparted His presence and fervor to her. She immediately had a supernatural hunger for the Word of God and has continued to seek Him since. Sharon often says that her best friends are dead. She is speaking of the saints that have since gone to their reward. Madame Jeanne Guyon, Brother Lawrence, John of the Cross, Padre Pio, and The Cure of Ars are just a few of those who have taught her the ways of the Spirit. Their writings and lives are "life and spirit" to her. She has a heart for those in third world countries that have yet to hear the name of Jesus. Traveling to Israel, India and Africa she has seen the power of the gospel to change lives and bring old and young alike to Jesus. Her hope is that she will play a positive role in the lives of all around her...all that the Lord leads her way...to help guide them to union with God. |
