Happy Anniversary to me! A year ago today, I started a new path along my journey. Although I'd like to say I've written 365 posts, I can't. But, throughout this past year, I have grown deeper in my faith and awareness for God all around me, in my daily life and in the lives of others.
I started this at the suggestions of others, but mainly because God was urging me to. I was excited at the idea because I enjoy writing and thought it would be fun. I never realized how much it would impact me. I wrote it for myself. At first, I told very few people. Gradually, that number grew. There have been times I've learned something I wrote impacted someone else. If that happened, that's an added bonus to what I have considered my own personal journey. Although I am typically one to look for God, it wasn't until I committed to actively look for Him every day that I began to see Him constantly, in every aspect of my life.
My life has taken several turns this past year that I never would have expected- job changes, health issues, and random things here and there. Writing daily, or almost daily, has helped me remain focused through the ups and downs. If you've been reading awhile, you've seen me at some very high points and some low points. But, no matter what, the important thing to know is that either way, God was there.
If you read this, thank you. If you get something from what I write, that's awesome. But, I'll tell you the same thing I was told. Why don't you write it? Take your own journey. Look for God daily in your life and make a committment to write where you see Him each day. Open your eyes to where He works in you and around you. I'd love to read your sightings!
Psalm 103:22 (NIV)

Praise the Lord, all his works everywhere in his dominion. Praise the Lord, my soul.
