I Miss Blogging...
Yes, I blog a lot still, but I don't do it like I used to.
I was just re-reading some posts from February of 2004, and I was amazed at how much I had to say back then! I loved blogging, sharing my thoughts with my friends, family, and essentially the world--as anyone can read my blog if they stumble across it...
But, the past few months I have been so empty, so dry, so in need of renewal...and it shows not only on my blog, but in my journal. I can always tell when I've been going through tough times because there are gaps in my journal. I used to LOVE journaling, and it used to be something that I was known for. However, in the past year I have gone through only one journal, as compared to one every 6 weeks like it used to be...
Life is getting better--amazingly so! So, I am really hoping to blog like I used to. When I read blogs like Melissa's, or Heather's, or so many others, I realize that I want to be like that again. I want to be open and honest with everyone, because I have nothing to hide.
It's going to be a great year. Tonight, I officially began (in my mind) to reconcile a friendship that has been severed for almost two years now...and it feels great. My heart is finally ready to heal, to forgive, and to be forgiven. The Lord has brought to mind a few other names of friends with whom I need to speak, but that will come in time. I have a job and I am so excited to begin this opportunity! I have so wanted to work in a secular environment, as I live in a "Christian Bubble" and have little to no contact with non-Christians. I am also excited about non-work related possibilities that exist at ADP. ;) I can't wait to start Arabic classes--though I am not unrealistic about the difficulty of the subject. I'm mentally prepared to be kicked in the butt each and every class session! I cannot wait to see all that the Lord does, now that I am once again completely surrendered to Him...
Just some thoughts...I think I am going to journal now...
