A newbie

I'm new to the blogging "scene" so we will see how it goes. Within the past few years I've been giving the desire and gift (if you want to call it that) to write. I guess you can say it stemmed from the need to release what I have within me. I'm not always the most eloquent speaker and so I've found that when I write, I can be more clear as to what God has shown me. Which leads me into one of the greatest truths about this "gift." I do believe God gave me this desire to glorify Him, and so far I've found I can only write when He first has spoken to me. I go through times of nothing, wondering if I'll ever be able to write something new, and then when I'm least expecting it, and when I'm always needing it, He reveals Himself to me. And as I've written before, that is how I feel all gifts should be, only used when inspired by God, because frankly they are meaningless without His inspiration.

So I imagine this will be a mixture of new things and a collection of my old "favorites." Who will come across this? I have no idea. But my hope and prayer is that everyone will be entertained and most importantly see God in my life.
