This world is not my home...


‎1 Corinthians 4:16-18- "That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. For our present troubles are small and wont last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don't look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever." 
What a refocus-er and reminder to my heart. Too often I get wrapped up in the problems of today and forget the reason I'm here on earth; to glorify God.

Day 12- Why I have a blog


Actually, I don't remember when I found out about Blogger. Originally I made it mostly for myself. I wanted to be able to express myself through writing and not worry about others thought. Now it has become so much more. It is really me putting my heart on the line. I want to share my heart with others, kind of like a motivational columnist writer in a newspaper? lol. But I really like posting little blurbs of what I'm thinking and wrestling with. 
Hopefully you do too!
