About

The idea of starting a blog had been on mind my mind for the longest of times, but like with most things in my life I found excuses, a way out, procrastinated and let my fears and anxiety get the better of me. I am that silent girl, who likes to be in the shadows unseen and unexposed. I have this firm belief that if you put yourself out there, you open yourself up to criticism, and yes that absolutely terrifies me. I am, however, a Christian woman too.

"Yes, so?" you might be wondering- or not, its fine, I'll tell you anyway. The Bible references how Jesus is the light of the world so much. He came to Earth to share that light, so that all who were living in darkness could receive this light. As Christians we are called to imitate Jesus and do as he did. Now, I was quite content with just going to church occasionally, praying when I remembered to, dusting my Bible off on sporadic days when I felt moved by the spirit then chucking it away again to some dark suspicious corner in my room until my Christian juices would flow again. In a nutshell I was  (am) a lukewarm Christian. That short anecdote was basically me trying to tell you that recent non-coincidental events in my life have lead me understand that living like that is not OK anymore.

In the gospels Paul talks a lot about the body of Christ and how each organ-each one of us- has a different but integral role to play in it. I always believed I had no role to play in this so called body, because I have no obvious talents or gifts that I know of. One thing I am good at doing is reading, recreationally, it's the best thing ever. I then drew the most obvious conclusion that maybe my role in the body of Christ would be to write. Some of my biggest convictions came from reading books, quotes and of course the Bible. I am not saying I write well, Blogging was just the easiest way for me to share God because although I am "putting myself out there" I still get to retain some kind of anonymity. 

This Blog is intended to have Jesus at the center. I do not know where he wishes to take take it, what he wishes to do with it, but I am safely resting in his promise that His words never return empty and always accomplishes what He desires (Isiah55:11). This takes the pressure off me and really calmed my anxieties all I have to do is walk out in obedience and God will do the rest. I do not claim to know it all, in fact, I know nothing I am imperfect and fall short everyday. With this Blog I hope to let him speak through me . You do not have to be Christian to read this, you just have to be open to Love.

So yes, this is it. Just an ordinary girl with an extraordinary God trying to bring his kingdom glory the best way she knows how.
