Start of Something New

Yes. I started a blog. This is something I've always wanted to do. In fact, I actually started one a couple of times. Once, when I was a freshman in high school, I tried to write a blog about being a socialized homeschooler... Yeah... we recently removed all traces of that from the internet. My exciting aspirations were not that exciting to the general public.

The problem with writing a blog always boils down to the fact that I have nothing really to write the blog about...

My life is not that exciting.

No one cares about my love life (or lack of it). 

And I don't live in an exotic city.

Then it recently dawned on me... I do have something worth documenting and sharing with the world...

My faith in Christ. 

He is everything

Now granted, there was a time in my life when I couldn't say that. Yes, He was a part of my life... but as far as my main goal, no. I was so concerned with the petty things of life - friends, schools, boys, and you can add the rest of what would be on the list of a typical female concerned with the world. I lost my focus. I couldn't understand though, that after all the stuff I was filling my life with, why I was so unhappy most of the time.

The last couple years, I have really learned what it means to have a relationship with Christ. You can go to church for your whole life, memorize verses like a beast, and even witness to everyone you come into contact with, but if you don't know Christ - what's the point? That's like campaigning for the greatest politician, knowing what he stands for, and reading every book written about him - but never actually meeting him. 

I promise this won't be too "preachy." I hope you read what I post and then make your own Biblically based conviction about it. I really just want to share what has happened in my own life - the transformation I have experienced by Christ's love. I hope that you will join me on this journey, and that your life is blessed in some way. 

Hopelessly Flawed,
