The Beginning; The Why; The Me

Today I decided to start writing my blog. The very first thing I want to do is give a great big THANK YOU to Tessa @ eyebrow…http://www.tessamcknight.com/ for her help….ok….her “design” of this page. I tried, I really did. But in the end I hated it. Thank you Tessa for getting me set up and started!
 
About now I bet you are asking why I am writing a blog. Well, there are several reasons why I have chosen to begin writing.
 
     First is because it will become a diary of sorts for me to look back and see where God has guided me in this journey home. Now before someone asks I will answer the obvious “elephant in the room” question. What does “my journey home” in the title mean? We are all headed to an eternal home. I am so thankful to my Savior Jesus Christ that my eternal home is Heaven. I don’t know when that journey will move me into Heaven but I do know every moment on earth is a part of the journey God has called me to take. It is my desire to love more and grow closer to God while on this journey.
 
     Second is because there are things I am passionate about and things I really dislike but they are important in life. So you will be hearing about many topics ranging from spiritual issues, to prepping, to being frugal, to uuugggggg….the dreaded topic of politics. When I find things in other places or blogs that are important to me, I will link to them (when I learn the proper way to do this) and share with you.
 
     Third is the simple reason of leaving a legacy. I have done very little to share with anyone about who I really am. Honestly, most days I wonder who I am. LOL! I often wish I knew more about who my mom was at certain ages and stages of life. As I seek to leave something behind for my children and others, I also hope to find inner nuggets into who I am according to God’s desires for me and in turn I hope to GLORIFY Him in every post.
 
     I am confident this is going to be fun for me simply because I already know God is working in my life. Will it be fun for you?? Some days you may love it and others you may wonder why you are wasting your time. I hope it is more of the “love it” days but ultimately this will be who I am and what I want to share or simply remember; not about pleasing or impressing anyone else.
 
     There are no promises to write daily or weekly or whatever. I will post when I have something to say or God leads my hands on the keys. I will always try to be brief but as you can see, I write just like I talk…lots of words. So, stick me in your “favorites”…or not….and come along as I continue a journey.
 
May your heart always be open to the truth we find in scripture and willingness to be what Christ has called you to be.
 
Love in Christ
Ronda :)
