The beginning...

Well, I said I wouldn't do it... and here I am. I've fought the idea of a blog for a long time, because I know that I never seem to have any time and I knew it would just take up more of it. My first thought was that I never have enough time to journal like I want to. Plus, we all know I'm addicted to email and facebook-- CLEARLY I didn't need anything else to take up my time! At least that's what I thought... but then I started thinking about the posts on some of my friends' blogs that have blessed me SO much! I've been amazed at the things the Lord has revealed to me through some of these posts, and how at times He has truly touched my heart with something someone shared (when I've gotten a chance to read them that is) and all of a sudden I'm just feeling inspired. I'm sure I won't have anything brilliant to say (at least not of my own) but it feels like I'm entering a time of revelation from Him- who am I to write it down in a journal that no one may ever read? Who am I to say He couldn't use something I've written in the life of another? After all- He is the source of my life, my thoughts... the reason I am able to think and write. Who am I to say this isn't how He wants to use this season of my life?

And so... here I am. My prayer is that you'll be blessed in some way by the posts that follow!
