My blogging voice

In browsing through my favourite blogs this week I've come across a bit of a theme. What is my motive for blogging? Is it about me or is it about Jesus? Also is the blogging me the real me?

Upon pondering these questions I think I've come up with some answers. When I orginally started blogging it was purely for me. It was an avenue for me to share my thoughts, prayer requests and general happenings. It wasn't long before I discovered that through my blog I could bless others, and that has been an amazing experience. Having said that, I think I need to work on my blog becoming more Christ centred. Because I need to work on becoming more Christ centred.

As for my blog being the real me. I like to think it is. It's a more eloquent version of me because I have always been far better at expressing myself through the written word. I have people I know who read this blog and they haven't started viewing me as though I have a split personality so I'm hoping that's a good sign!

I read other's blogs and they bless my walk with the Lord so much. I truly beleive that the Lord led me to the blogging world (with a little help from Lightening!) so that I could come into contact with some amazing, honest and Christ centred women. I don't feel that I am spiritually mature enough to hand out advice, but I'm really enjoying gaining knowledge and encouragement from you lovely ladies. I hope to one day be able to contribute to others lives in the same way that you have blessed mine.

Lord, thankyou for introducing me to this wonderful blogging family. I pray that I can let you dwell in my heart permanently, and that I can learn to look to you in all things. I pray that I can come to a place where I know for certain that my decisions and my life is led by you.
