There are many blog posts where I stumble and write for selfish reasons, but I am learning. A post on [in]Courage's blog has helped me to understand how I can really use this little virtual spot as a means to spread good news.
My writing doesn't just start and end with blogging. Since before I was a believer I wrote letters to God - all 39 journals are present in this photo. Several of them are unfinished, half full, and filled with many "enjoy the struggle" moments. Some have photos and articles or collections of tiny inspirations and others reflect dark and strong times of faith.
As a woman of the 21st century I enjoy the efficiency of typing my journal now. However, since I laid out this collection for a photo, I realized that I have a deep connection to all these letters and how special it is for me to know how many tears have been dropped on these pages, how many dreams are lost in the lines, and how strong my sense of hope is in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
I can't help but think that my little white macbook won't be able to provide that same tangible sense of connection - so I might just start ball-pointing my personal stories again. Eventually those written notes will lead to the collection of blog letters to you and to a blogging community that is fighting to share the heart, soul, and strength of the Gospel.
Grace and Peace to you friends.
