It seems that this first post is the hardest to write. There are so many things on my mind….I’ve already jotted down several post ideas and they’re all swirling through my mind. I guess the best thing to do is to just get with it.
My blog idea has been developing for quite some time and I’ve actually made blog pages twice before, but I wasn’t fully committed to following through. This time is different. This time I’ve got a plan and I haven’t set unattainable expectations for myself. I’m not going to post daily….I plan on posting at least 2-3 times per week, and if it ends up being more, well then I’ll be thrilled.
My goals: First and foremost, share the Word of God through my experiences and testimony. A testimony isn’t always a huge life-changing situation….sometimes it’s just growth and maturity in the walk in faith. Sharing with each other the way that Christ is impacting our lives on a daily basis is key in this growth and maturity. And secondly, journal my life….you know, just keep a running tab of instances that capture my life. Sometimes I forget the small things that happen over time….this way, when something has an impact on me, I’m more likely to journal about it so I can look back at it later and be reminded of the small things that bring such joy to me. Lastly, I really just want to have fun. Writing is therapeutic to me. Even if no one else ever reads my blog, it will bring me peace and joy….what else could I ask for?
So, there it is. My first blog post. Whew!
