I don't know what will come of this endeavor, but if nothing else, I will get to write "out loud." For many years now I have kept journals...my responses to God "sweetly breaking" me. When I started reading some friends' blogs, I thought, "this is great!...too bad I don't have time to do one of my own..maybe someday. (Sigh)" And then the question, "why not now?" just seemed to keep haunting me. If there's one thing I am learning, it's that time never slows down for me to accomplish the things most important to me. I have to "seize the day" and "redeem the time" if acts worthy of remembering are going to happen. So today is the day. No more putting off this endeavor to share what God has done/is doing in my life. Truth be told, no one really "has the time" to blog, we have to create the time out of our cramped schedules. For me and many other parents, homeschooling is about the last thing I (we) may have time for, as we watch many other opportunities pass us by, but, because it is important enough to us, we make the time. Our lives consist greatly of the choices we make... momentarily as well as across the span of our days, weeks, and years. And those things worthy of investment will rise to the surface in our acting on them. So now this endeavor, that of "blogging" (who came up with that word anyway?) is rising to the surface of my life. I pray it will be a blessing.
