So, I've been following/reading/stalking a few blogs for a while now... To say that I'm overwhelmed by some would be an understatement. I can honestly say there are some that I totally feel God's leading in reading their blog. Our lives are different. Our paths may never cross. Yet somehow their words have spoken to me. They have challenged me - to read my Bible more - to tell others about Jesus - and oh, how much they've challenged me to teach my kids more about God and his will for their lives.
My kids are teenagers now. Big decisions are looming in their near futures. Alyssa will be graduating from high school next year. Logan will enter high school this fall. Have I taught them to seek God's will? Have I demonstrated the power of prayer? What it's like to depend on Jesus? Have I prayed as I should for their future mate? Have I prayed Numbers 6:24 - 26 over them?The doubts, the questions... they can overwhelm me at times.
I'm not a scrapbooker.. much to the dismay of my sister. She has bought me supplies, invited me to scrapbooking conferences, encouraged me, but I just can't do it. I have 2 books started. I wished I had fell in love with scrapbooking when my kids were babies. Maybe I'd be more inclined. I just didn't and I'm not...
I don't journal... I have before, but not regularly. I do, however, get on my computer most everyday (w/ exception of Saturdays which are usually spent sorting through the piles of laundry, lugging around a vacuum and dancing with a mop).
Enough with this rambling... I may give this blogging a chance. I'd like to chronicle my days with my kiddos over their last and first days of high school. I'd like to record words spoken to me through his Word. I definitely won't blog just for others enjoyment cause that is likely not to happen. I don't have quick wit moments, although, crazy things seem to happen to me on a regular basis. But I'll give it a try..
