Sinnerella

Hello, my name is Cristiana. When I was a child I loved the story of Cinderella. It was my favorite fairy tale. I dreamed of when my handsome prince would rescue me from the misery of feeling unloved, unimportant, stupid and only good for cleaning up after others. When I was older and in school, I felt unimportant, unwanted and outcast. Then I discovered the agony and ecstasy of being cared about by a young man. It was wonderful to finally feel like someone loved me. But after marriage, the fantasy crumbled as I only had more housework, not less, and the dreams I had for my life were not coming true. After a few years, my marriage ended and I became bitter and jaded about love. When I met another man who loved me, I was full of hope and dreams again. We married and I was soon pregnant. With the birth of my daughter, I fell in love again. However, I began to resent that my life only seemed to be about doing menial work. My high and lofty dreams seemed unreachable, and I came to realize that my husband was not the prince I had dreamed of who would take me away from the daily drudgery. So I began to wonder what the Cinderella story was really about, and Sinnerella was what God showed me. I understand that the story of Cinderella is present in other cultures and I believe that God gave this story to the human race because it has a message for women. I hope that my retelling of this tale opens your eyes to a God who is wooing you in the midst of the mess of your shattered dreams and broken heart.

There is a lot of truth in Sinnerella's story. The Prince is not fiction. He is real and alive right now. He wants to have a relationship with you. He goes by many names: Jesus Christ, Immanuel (which means "God with us"), Messiah, Savior, Prince of Peace, and more. He has so many names because He cannot be described by one word. He really did suffer unimaginable torture to secure your freedom. Have you met Him?
