Beginning.

So I decided today that since I am absolutely enthralled by writing - it's all in the experience, not the product - I should make a blog. Of course, I have journals, but I wanted a way to express my emotions and thoughts publicly. I mean, why not, right? Who ever said just because their my thoughts that they should be kept secret?

This is actually an idea I've been convicted about recently. Just because I have a personal, intimate relationship with the Creator of the universe doesn't mean I should keep that to myself either, right?

I like the idea of beginning, of starting fresh. And that's exactly what I'm doing by beginning this blog. Of course, I could re-create myself via this very computer screen, but that's not the point. The point is to express my contemplations, which can at times be extremely complex (or maybe just confusing). But God has blessed me a whole lot in that He has given me the undeserved ability to get to know Him. That in and of itself is pretty wild. Because of this knowledge of Him and love for Him He teaches me more about Himself every day. Not a day goes by that I don't see Jesus in the world around me. So why am I not screaming from the rooftops this beauty that has been unveiled before me?

So here it is. My first ever blog. Maybe I'll never literally get up on a rooftop and scream about Jesus, but I'd like to display who He is with my life - and maybe this blog is just another step in sharing His truth.

There is, and always will be, so much more to come.
