A Blog About EVERYTHING...
I have wanted to start a blog for quite some time, but the task was too daunting. Honestly, I could never get past the "thinking of a name" phase. I wanted my blog to cover so many things: faith, parenting, marriage, friendship, early childhood education, lifelong learning, books... SO. MANY. THINGS. And how do you name it when it covers anything an everything? I couldn't, so I just never started blogging.
And besides not being able to come up with a name, I couldn't decide what stance to write from. I am no expert in ANY of these things. I am not a perfect Christian, expert mother, amazing wife, never-fail friend, master in early childhood education, PhD or author. So who am I?
Tonight, as I was thinking I realized how few answers I have, but how okay that is. God never called me to be finished... at least not on this side of heaven. I am a completely incomplete person. I am a mom in the trenches. An early childhood educator who sometimes has no answers for the kiddos I serve. I am a follower of Christ who doesn't live up to the name Christian. I am a wanna be author (maybe...someday I will have a topic to write about and the words someone wants to read). I am a wife with a struggling marriage. I am a friend LOVES friendship, but sometimes fails to be a good friend. I am a PhD Someday dreamer.
So I decided to just start anyway. This blog is unnamed and I am unfinished. I can write about whatever is on my heart, because the blog is unnamed and I am not boxed in. And I can be so grateful I am unfinished. If this was the final product, not a work in progress, we would all be depressed. This I know... He who began a good work in me (and in you) will carry it on to completion. One day I will be named... Perfect, Holy, Radiant Bride... but until then I am unfinished, but not unloved.
