First Post

     I know, me blogging? At first, you might think it’s a joke. But in truth, I have considered starting a blog for a couple months, but never got around to setting one up until now. Before you read any further I have to warn you, I am not a writer, words have never been my thing, speaking doesn't even come easily to me, but God has done a lot in my life, (especially during the last year or so) and I am confident that the best is still to come. So, why have I fallen into the blogging obsession? Well, I am hoping that blogging will be a way I can share what God has done and is continuing to do in my life and the life of others around me. To be honest, I am very overwhelmed with the thought of keeping up with this, and I am pretty intimidated when I see that people have actually read it. Blogging is definitely going to be a pretty big step out of my comfort zone, but I will be trusting God to give me the words to say, the stories to share, and the readers who might find some encouragement from it. All in all this blog will be written with two reasons in mind;
     1. To bring glory to God by sharing all the things He does.
     2. To keep people back home and people I come into contact with here, up to date with all the things that have been happening in my life.
     Well, sorry if this has been a clique first post, (I really wouldn't know?) I guess the only thing I have left to say is “Good Luck!” If you have stuck with me this far, you can probably do anything! ;)

     "Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant."
Jeremiah 1:4-10

In His Arms,
<3 D
