Hello, friends! First, I'd like to explain that I accidentally deleted my old blog... oops! But I'm a little relieved that I get to start over. I'm tired of not finishing what I began; not following through on my adventures (as small as they may seem, like this blog). I'm excited to have a place to share my thoughts and observations; to write what I learn and learn from what I write. I may not be as funny as (my brother) Ben, and I definitely cannot write as poetically and truthfully as my best friend Carly (I've never been more entranced by anyone's writing - I recommend reading her entire blog, beginning to end), but I still want to share what I do have. And what I have has been given to me by Jesus - life. Experiences. Dreams, and relationships. Eyes and ears. I'm praying that my God will give me insight, and that He would reveal things both to me and to anyone who stumbles onto my blog. I'm really excited for this! I get to write down my story, process it, and wring out all the life and wisdom I can from it.
This is the beginning of a new season; thanks for joining me in it :)
We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. Eph 2:10
ReplyDelete"And the LORD will continually guide you, And satisfy your desire in scorched places, And give strength to your bones; And you will be like a watered garden, And like a spring of water whose waters do not fail. Isaiah 58:11
But you, O God, do see trouble and grief; you consider it to take it in hand. The victim commits himself to you; you are the helper of the fatherless… You hear, O LORD, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry, defending the fatherless and the oppressed… Psalm 10: 14,17,18
How blessed is he who considers the helpless; The LORD will deliver him in a day of trouble. The LORD will protect him and keep him alive, And he shall be called blessed upon the earth;
The Lord will not give him over to the desire of his enemies. Psalm 41: 1,2
