So it occurred to me last night that I should not be worried about anyone reading this blog and believing something about me that I would have rather kept wrapped up. When I consider what Randy taught this past Sunday -- that prayer is the avenue through which I wrestle with and eventually surrender to You in the areas of my life where I struggle -- I remember that it was for that very purpose that I started this journal to begin with. That being the case, it doesn't matter what people think about me if they read any of this -- the goal was to write a continuing open letter to You where I would be honest with You about my fears, frustrations, and shortcomings, as well as my hopes, my victories in Christ, and the times when my faith in You does not fail. While that could all be accomplished simply with a written journal, we started this so that I would have somewhere to write while I was on break at work, and so anyone chancing across this page and possibly struggling with my same struggles can perhaps encounter You even in some small way. I let my pride shift the focus of this journal off of You, and for that I am sorry.
Still, I know You don't intend for all of my inner thoughts to be solemn all of the time, or even serious whether times be good or bad -- this is simply the wrong avenue for my frivolous musings.
To anyone who might still be reading then, be aware that this page will include some very frank conversations with the God whom I serve -- the God of the Bible who is One with Christ Jesus.
For the frivolous stuff, just go to the other page... http://starkravingblog.blogspot.com/
