A New Beginning

Whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap. As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things. Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let not your hands be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well. Ecclesiastes 11:4-6

I used to spend a lot of time writing. I carried a notebook with me and wrote in it every spare moment I had. In the seventh grade, one teacher allowed me to read my book to the class and I received a lot of encouragement. I'm not sure why I put the writing aside, but for years my writing was confined to journals in which I recorded events, feelings and the occasional "ARGH!" when I felt totally overwhelmed.

Recently my passion for writing has been renewed. It involves a bit more than a notebook and typewriter. The computer makes editing much easier, but blogging? this is a new venture for me though many of my younger friends blog regularly with great ease. And putting my writing out where it can be criticized and rejected, it's tough to ignore those potential storm clouds, but is part of planting seed.

Come along and seek the Kingdom of God with me. Let's discover the truth that is revealed in the Word of God and enjoy the process together as we share the joys and trials along the way.
