Well, today is Jan 2nd 2007. WOW, 2007. I remember when it was 1999 and the big thing was everything changing into 2000. Now it is already 2007. I try not to give much thought to timelines. I know that God's timeline is so different then ours. So what is time but our own mesurement. It doesn't matter what year it is, how old we are, if time passes quickly...because we have no control over any of that. What matters most is that we spend time with people. People who make our journey so precious, people who lead us closer to Jesus, people who encourage us, mentor us, reach out to us, care about us and pray for us. I consider the people who do that so very precious in my life and they have so much value as they speak the truth, God's truth into my life. THEY ARE my family. I truly believe God gives us our family we are "born" into........but then He leaves the door open for us to meet people and keep those people as friends or add them to OUR FAMILY by the changes they bring to our heart. There are so many people that I consider my family because God placed them in my life and they have shown me the face of God through their love & caring & walk with the Lord. They will ALWAYS be considered my family too. They are special...just as the family I was born into. Well, this is my first time EVER blogging. It is my first time ever even trying to place my "happenings" on the computer. I will probably hit "send" and wipe my entire blog out. Anyway, I very dear SIS (sister in spirit) e-mailed me yesterday and sent me a blog of a precious baby who needed prayers anyway...that blog inspired my heart so much and I cannot even imagine how the baby's mom can find time to blog but because of her blog my heart was touched deeply and her words lead me to pray and then I began to think......if she didn't blog then I would never know about her baby or never have that part of my heart that was numb opened up again. So I decided to try to blog. "TRY" is the key word here of course. I don't have much to say, but hey, I blog's gotta start somewhere ...................so enjoy this mess of thoughts and words and know that you are loved deeply by Jesus!
