just a quick little note to say I have started a new blog...
i felt the Lord ask me to do this, as recently i have been struggling to have a devotional time every day
i hope to simply copy the verse(s) which 'jump out' at me as i read
and then maybe (maybe not) write a few thoughts on why that particular verse speaks to me, what i feel God may be saying through it
through this exercise, i hope to be forced to really ponder what i'm reading, not just skim over a passage and consider my quiet time done and dusted for another day!
already i have been meditating on Scripture more readily, more naturally, more excitedly
and feel enriched and invigorated by God's Word
i do not plan to be legalistic about this, and so may not necessarily post something every day, although that is certainly my aim...
for i am under grace, not under law.
please come and take a look, and contribute your thoughts as you feel led.

blessings to each and every one of you
thank you to those of you who read my blog, i am more grateful for your friendship and your love than you will ever know

That's a great idea. Whether or not other people read it, the practice will benefit you greatly. Once again, a great example...

yes, indeed - the moment it starts becoming about whether people read it or not, is the moment i'll have to stop, or take a break from it...!

What a pretty and peaceful looking blog. I hope this works well for you, we can just never have too much of His Word and His grace, right? Thanks for sharing this with us. (warm smile)

And I just wanted to say, "you've become such a sweet blog friend to me and I so enjoy reading all your thoughtful comments and coming by to visit your virtual home as well" ((hugs)) Thank you again.
