The Beginning

So I have had my blog up for a little while now with no posts, because I was not exactly sure what I wanted to write. This morning however, I was reading a few chapters from one of my favorite books and in this specific part of the book the author inserted the following scripture:

"You are our letter...written not in ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not in stone tablets, but on the tablets of human hearts." II Corinthians 3:2-3

This book , which I have read many times before, is Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers. Francine gives a clear depiction of God's love for His children and shows us how we should constantly show this love to others in our daily lives. Each day we are in some way, shape, or form, making an impression on people. As Christians it is our responsibility to be an image of God's letter to all people that we come in contact with. God may be using us to bring someone closer to Him and your actions, as a child of God, make an impact on those peoples' opinions of our Lord and Savior. Throughout my life, I have made mistakes and decisions that I am not proud of, but the Lord forgives, and can still use each and everyone of His Children to be one of his love letters. I would like to encourage everyone to read this book, it is a story that shows the total obedience of one man to God, and the process of a woman giving her whole heart to the Lord, even though she is buried in her sin.

I am very excited about beginning this blog, I am going to use it mostly to keep my family and friends updated on what is going on with my life, but I also want to use it to show my daily walk and journey with the Lord as He reveals His plans for me.
