Off the Bench and in the Game

So here I am...finally taking the leap from reading to writing. It's intimidating, daunting, but exciting too. I am in awe of the authors of the bogs I follow. They are much more eloquent, witty, poignant and compelling than I could ever be. Yet, I am still drawn to share here. I am pulled, led by something bigger than my own will to share my life, my words, my joys and sorrows...to share me.

I am setting some ground rules for this little blog o' mine.
  1. Brutal honesty
  2. Very limited editing...or I will edit myself right out of this thing all together.
  3. It's all game...all of it, even the ugly stuff.
  4. When I no longer feel led to do this...it's over.
And now for the stats:

Blessed beyond measure...

I am filled with a passion and thirst for a stronger, bolder, more obedient relationship with God and my Savior Jesus Christ.

**OK here is where I break in and confess that I started writing this about 3 months ago and got scared that I was not entertaining or interesting on any level and I abandoned my poor baby blog. But I am back...and ready to rumble. Seriously Steph...stop taking yourself so seriously. And now back to our regularly scheduled program...**

So jumping in here and just floating down the stream of consciousness. I was struck today with how surprised I am that when I allow God to lead my life...He takes me to amazing places.
