Being that is my very first blog post - EVER - I will keep
it short and sweet. Lately, the Lord has been pressing my love of writing on my
heart and I believe He is calling me to use it for His glory. Well, I am all
about using the talents He has given me to bring honor to His name and maybe
even (eep!) be a reflection of His light for others. Nothing excites me more
than to think the Lord could possibly use me for the growing of His kingdom!
So, here it is....the blog I have been thinking about (and, thus, praying
about) for a few months now.
I cannot promise it will be riveting. I cannot promise it
will make perfect sense. I cannot even promise it will be constant or extremely
regular. The only thing I can promise is that my words will come from
the heart and will have been prayed over and talked about with the Big Guy. I
will ponder and analyze my thoughts, as I usually do with my writing, and try
with all my might to only post things that He presses on my heart. It is my
prayer that this blog will find those it is intended for and bless them in a
way only the Holy Spirit can. With that - here goes my first attempt at
"blogging"! (I feel like an insider at a secret club or something!)
Could you imagine living in a perfect place with no tears,
no pain, no strife, no evil or sadness? Could you imagine not just living in in
this place but being the King of it all?? Reigning supreme over
perfectly endless beauty and wholly complete love? Now, imagine giving all that
up to move to a place saturated with sorrow, injustice, and intentional malice.
All for someone who ignores, disobeys, mocks and defames you! Our Lord did
exactly this. He stepped down from His glorious throne in heaven and immersed
Himself in the gritty muck that is our world. He rolled up His sleeves, girded
up His loins and jumped head first and full force into the sinful mess that was
keeping His people (us) separated from Him. Our precious, loving Father knew
there was no way we'd be able to reach Him through our own efforts and so He
took it upon Himself to fix what we never could. We could never avoid sin left
to our own devices (and some of us would never even try!) Our beautifully
merciful Father knew this and so decided to provide us with a solid,
unwavering, and impenetrable way around this problem - our Lord Jesus Christ!
That's just His kind of love. Amazing. Freeing. Beautifully humble.
Indescribable.
Love always,
Eva
