This blog was inspired from a podcast I heard from John Eldredge and his ministry called "Ransomed Heart". Writing (blogging in this case) has always been a passion of mine that seems to be suffocated through life responsibilities. In college, I had the opportunity to intern at a news station under the broadcast meteorologist and it spurned me to write about the uniqueness of weather and atmospheric sciences. I graduated, and it all stopped. I went off to graduate school in Texas; started living on my own and I lost that motivation to write. It was strangled by my other passions which in itself is not terrible, but I always longed to write again.
The podcast spoke to the creativity that God builds, ingrains in us as his creation. Some people are meant to be teachers, others builders, and still others writers. His beauty is shown through his creation (us, the world) as well as through our own uniqueness. My writing passion was part of my uniqueness and I felt I needed to pick it up again.
This really isn't meant to be read by anyone else, either. I'm not a terrific writer. I've published some work in my field but that's a different, technical and scientific type of writing. This is more personal; relational writing. Writing that has morphed onto paper, the internet, via experiences and emotions; through bible reading or christian theology. I don't need anyone to read my writing; really it's between God and I. I want to share with him how much I love him, how much I am learning about life, and how I perceive my purpose and plan in this world.
So here goes nothing
