A Revelation

So I haven't been committed to keeping up with my blog. I admit, I've neglected you. You - as in you, the people, and you, the blog. I had a revelation yesterday when I was asked about my blog. My response was that blogging can be time consuming. It's not the writing that is time consuming but finding the time to actually write out the many thoughts that continually go through my head. Yes, even in the midst, my mind seems to be on continuous run most days. That's another post. But being a full time mom, working a full time job, and being a full time student can be hectic.

I believe selflessness is one of the greatest achievements. So the revelation was that the blog is not about me. It was created to encourage and motivate YOU to push through to your dreams and the purpose for which God created you. So I'm going to make an effort to do better with keeping you lifted. Someone is in need every day. I never know who I may be reaching. And I'm not really concerned about that because I don't need to take the credit. My purpose is to put it out there. How you perceive, receive and respond to it is between you and God.

Today's encouragement is this...

This is the day the Lord has made. If you woke up this morning, you have a reason to rejoice. Don't compare yourself to the next person. You don't know where they've been or where they're going. God has an individualized purpose and a plan for YOU. His word says those that seek will find (Matt 7:8). Whatever adversities your day may bring, keep moving and keep praising. Go get YOUR blessing!
