I have never blogged before so I don't exactly know what's the skinny, but I will give it a try. I have been a Christian since I can remember. Yet more recently in the past couple of years, six to be exact, I have watched and felt my faith slowly wither to almost nothing. It as a very hard feeling to be so close to God and then feel yourself slip away for no other reason but selfishness. So I battled daily with myself and everyone else around me suffered because of it. I spent a year in Korea six years ago, and I have never felt so close to my Savior as I did then. I know He has never left me nor will He ever leave me, but it was I who left Him. But in those days I felt good. I felt revived. Like my life had finally began and I had a purpose. I felt like I was making a difference with those around me. Then something arose in my life that completely blind-sided me and I have been struggling to regain my footing ever since. About a year ago I hit my rock bottom. Perhaps it was not thttp://www.jesusismyfriend.com/profiles/blog/newhe same bottom others experience, but it surely was mine. But then just as quickly as I had scraped the bottom I started on my way back up. I was reunited with the love of my life and we were married a couple of months later. That was September of last year. After that I started to pick up the pieces of myself that I had left long ago. I am still not who or where I want to be, but I think I am on my way. The Lord has blessed me richly in so many ways I cannot even begin to think of how to count them. I stumbled upon this site through Myspace and I am really glad I did. Already I have had a warm welcome and I am anxious to see all the good this site will do. I just want to be apart of whatever it is the Lord is working on. I can't see the whole thing, but I can surely see something happening. Well I hope I did okay for my first blogging experience. This is actually somewhat therapeutic I think. Could be a good outlet. Til next time....May the Lord bless and keep you always. May He make His face to shine upon you and bring you peace.
