Day One

I have thought for a while now that it would be healthy for me to write down my thoughts and share my ideas. I'm overflowing like a blender with no lid full of hot soup in a kitchen full of little helpers....exciting and full of possibilities, but kind of a mess to work with. How do I get the lid on so I can get dinner on the table?

And then there's the issue that I think there's got to be more to blogging than just adding my thoughts to an already full world, and so I contemplate where in the vast electronic world my voice would be helpful. Maybe as an encourager to families to make, to create, to share, to build unity...maybe as the voice of a woman who loves Jesus and is pursuing being more like him everyday through what I say, what I make, what I do, what I think...maybe as a mom and a wife...maybe as an artist...maybe...

So in the end, we'll see! For now, I am so excited to give in to the thing in me that God put there--that I am in His image, in the image of The Creator. What rest there is in letting the creativity that He's given me go somewhere!
