With the help of my good friend Tyler, I have entered the world of blogging. This is very strange to me as I have never considered that people would want to read anything I might be inspired to write. But Tyler has assured me that even if no one else follows my beginner blog, she will. (thanks!)
I suppose having an audience is the very reason for blogging. Putting your thoughts and ideas "out there" is a much more rewarding experience if you think someone might read and be inspired/challenged/encouraged by them. Even so, the idea of an audience is very intimidating. It is easier to stay silent, out of the spotlight, invisible.
But I want to move past my fears and insecurities, out of the shadows and off of the sidelines and onto the center stage of my life. I want to develop the skills and talents that God has given me for His Glory. And yet, as I step out and become more visible I want the world to see HIM and not me. In essence, I need to be invisible. It may seem a little strange but the only way this can be about me is that it is NOT ABOUT ME!
It is like God is asking me to step into a spotlight; and the light that shines on me simply reflects back Jesus.

I love that it's not about me! Because how boring would that be?! But when it's about Him, and what He has done - well, that's just plain THRILLING! I am so glad you have started blogging. Now I can get my daily dose of wisdom without occupying you on the phone for hours. ;)
You are the wind beneath my wings! :D
