Yesterday I re-read my first ever blog. Five long years ago when I penned it. (Typed it... do they even make pens anymore?) In that inaugural blog, I posed the question, "why blog?" At the time, it was open ended... unanswered. Now, five years later... it has been answered.
1 Thessalonians 2:7-8 "Just as a nursing mother cares for her children, so we cared for you. Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well."
I blog, in part... to allow others to see into my life. Because I proclaim that Jesus Christ is real, and that the Bible is God's word. I am staking my life on it. My life isn't easy... but God is good. I am confident that as I seek God through his son Jesus Christ, that I will find him! And the effects of God in my life will be seen, and God himself will be glorified.
I blog, in part... for myself. So that I may remember what God has done in my own life. So the distractions of this world do not choke out my memory of God's faithfulness. So that I may always lean on him in my time of need, and that I will always seek him, even when things are well.
I blog, in part... because I pray that God gives my wife and I children. So that they may know the Lords dealings with their father, and be encouraged in their own walk with God.
