Well, after several months of pondering, what started as an idea on Facebook has now moved to it's next step; this blog. I have been pursuing writing for sometime now and for whatever reason(s), nothing has come to fruition thus far. So, today as I sit here, I hesitate. I feel the desire to share, but I'm scared. So, as I stand at the beginning of this process, I take the first steps, Baby Steps, as I refer to them. Baby Steps towards the next stage. And so it is, without further adieu, the initial ideas that came forth in May: (As taken straight from Facebook, originally directed towards my female friends but anyone is welcome to read)
I have had it in my heart to write...at first I wasn't really sure about what...I have a few things I could think of on my own but the following is something that just kind of spewed out one day...I just wondered if by reading it, it seems that it would be something you would be interested in, one Christian sister to another, or if you think it's just a good idea for my own personal reflections and journals...I don't know where I would head with this is, obviously it would have to continue to be God inspired but here's what I have thus far!
Some days I think to myself: "If anyone else knew the things that went thru my mind, they would never in a million years believe that I am a Christian girl." The reality, however, is that I'm not the only person on earth with carnal thoughts, behaviors and idiosyncracies. The fact of the matter is that we all need to know "we're in this together", the Good, the Bad and the ugliest of us all. Of our hearts that is. Longing to be set apart and actively pursuing the state of living set apart are, as I've discovered, 2 TOTALLY different things. The latter often seems unachievable. But by the Grace of God, I hope that one day I wil be able to walk in it, to bask in it; but until then, these are my confessions. Confessions of a girl set apart.
