Her life took another turn when a
radio owner called her and asked
whether she had ever thought
about doing radio. She was offered a position on the morning
show. Naomi agreed and was
on the radio for a year.
While on radio, Naomi began
writing for Christian radio and
doing Christian music. Naomi
then decided to write a follow up
to her testimony.
At this point, Naomi was wondering what she was going to
do next. Was she just going to
be a “normal person”. Maybe,
she thought, that her ministry
was supposed to be small, and
not large. There were so many
questions!
Things changed when a friend
contacted her on Facebook who
used to be part of the Backstreet
Boys. They met when she was
fifteen and working for Sony, but
they had lost touch since then.
He asked her how she was doing, and how her career was going. Naomi informed him that
she was no longer in pop music,
and was now doing Christian
music instead.
He asked her if she was writing an album, and she thought,
“I don’t know. I live in Moncton,
New Brunswick. I don’t really
have the things I need to make
an album” He then invited her
down to Franklin, Tennessee to
meet his friends who were famous writers in the Christian
industry. Then, he said, “Let’s
make an album.”
Naomi said, “O.K.”
Naomi says that since then, her
life has been a series of surprises and miracles.
Naomi has also began writing,
and has begun a vlog that has
captured attention.
Naomi has learned, through her
journey, to trust in God implicitly
to supply all of her needs. She
has learned that she needs to
serve Him with her whole heartnot just part of it. She discovered, in her journey, that life outside of His will was challenging,
and led to heartbreak. However,
in Him, were blessings and surprises that she could never have
fathomed!
Many thanks to Naomi Striemer
for her inspiring testimony! It
was an absolute delight speaking with you!
