I've resisted this for a while. Couldn't figure out why I, little ol' me, should have a blog. My life isn't any more exciting than others, in fact, much to my disagreement, you could call me, "normal". But today I don't think normal is what I want to be any more. I've decided that regardless of who I might be, I know someone Who is worth knowing and that's what I feel compelled to search my heart and share about.
Today I came to the realization that the longings of my heart are only explained in Christ. Because, you see, we are all created worshipers. When we worship anything short of perfection, our entire reason, the beauty in our lives, disappears. Now you might read this and argue that you are not a worshiper. You might call yourself agnostic or apathetic, and you might be when it relates to faith. But I challenge that we are all worshipers. Something, EVERYTHING, in our lives points to something or someone. The question is not, "Do you worship?", but rather, "What are you worshiping and how does that shape your life today?"
You see, my life almost fell apart this year. I got distracted and caught up in life, job worship, relationship worship, and yes, self worship. This blog isn't because I've figured anything out, rather it's an exploration of freedom; a declaration that freedom is not found in myself or in others. This blog is an adventure and a hope that my life in one year is a little closer to a free life, an abandoned life.
Welcome to the adventure!
