The last month of 2020 arrived today. Some say good riddance, but not me. Not all of it. Surely we’ve learned some lessons too hard to be learned any other way.
Our toy box got too full. We had to turn it over, dump it all out, examine the mess, and hopefully, throw away all but the best, that which delights and encourages and inspires.
Hi! I started this blog over a year ago because I wanted to share what's most important to me--seeing God at work all around and inside me. Although I was raised going to church, I am not interested in religion, which is all about rules. What makes my heart beat and weep and shout hallelujah is knowing our Savior, the one who lives to make intercession for me (even me!) and to give me life more abundant. His name is Jesus, and He not only saved my life many decades ago, He keeps saving it and amazing me all the time. Relationship with the creator of the world is why I crave to write to let anyone willing to read know.
The title, So You Will Know, comes from many passages in the Bible. Frequently, God tells us that a big reason He does what He does is so we will know that He is the Lord. In fact, He tells us this more than 60 times in the Book of Ezekiel alone. He tells us this over and over, as a parent telling his kids something important, so we will understand and remember.
My prayer for this blog is that what God reveals to me about Him will intrigue you to find out more about Him yourself. Don't take my word for it. Look Him up. He's as close as your heartbeat, knows you better than you know yourself, including your worst, most hateful thoughts and deeds, the things you are ashamed of and would never tell anyone. He knows, and He loves you immeasurably anyway.
This is my little light, and I'm letting it shine.
