Have you ever been led to do something that was seemingly insignificant, but it felt very important to you?  I did – I decided to use my writing ability to start a blog.  I don’t even like the word blog – it is very un-inspiring and non-descript, but I like the concept of writing something down that others may read and be encouraged by or that may make them think in a different way than they have before.

I love to think and ponder the bigger things in life.  I wonder about God – who He is, what He spends His time doing, how I can get to know Him when I can’t even see or touch Him.  I wonder about my life – why I am here, why I always feel the need to be perfect, how to experience life in all it’s fullness.  I know that I’ve been given pat answers to all of these questions at some point in my life, but I’m not interested in the pat answers – I want to really understand things in a deep & rich way.  In ways that are unshakeable & real.  I’m not afraid of hard answers – as long as they are true.

So, as I “blog” you may not relate if you are more of a pat-answer kind of person.  If you are like me, though, and like to ponder the whys of life, then you may enjoy reading along as I trudge through the deeper questions that I struggle with and some of the surprising answers that I’ve come to learn.  Know that I am a Christian – not a hard-nosed religious sort, but a follower of Christ who tries to live life according to what He is teaching me along the way – and that is the lens that I see life through.  Know that I am not perfect (much to my dismay) and may write things that you disagree with.  Know that I would love to hear any comments or additions to my writings as long as you are kindJ  Enjoy reading. . . .
