The Beginning

Here, on this blog are where two of my passions, Jesus and writing, come together.

Let me explain: Do you ever have ideas come to you at the weirdest times? The other night I was lying in bed unsuccessfully trying to sleep, when a project popped into my head. That's where this blog comes into play. I have a heart for God... my heart has been shaped and guided by Him. God speaks to me and I honestly believe His thoughts...His words...my experiences with Him aren't to be kept to myself, but shared. As a Christian I am called to share the gospel. How else would others hear about Him if it weren't for people who know? Who are willing to stand up and share? I am doing it a bit differently, however. I am not one that would stand on a street corner with a sign that says, "Jesus loves you!" I'm not opposed to the idea, but that just isn't my style. Nor am I the one to insert Jesus into the conversation with a stranger. I am, however, the person who would talk about my experiences with God if the topic comes up. I am one who tries to live my life in such a way that those around me can see Jesus in me...and hopefully can see His love too. That's what I am aiming for this blog to be about- sharing His word and showing that Jesus loves His people and the world that He created. The plan is for me to read through the Bible-from the beginning to the end-and blog about what I've read. I will also blog about other things that Christians deal with. God is the desire of my heart and in my heart He has also placed the passion of writing, not just about anything, but about Him. I want to give Him all the glory and hopefully, through writing...through sharing His words, that can be done.

So, here's to the beginning of reading through His word and sharing it along with whatever else He lays on my heart.

From His word...to my heart...to you.
