I have never considered blogging, I am a horrible speller, my grammar and sentence structure are seriously something to be questioned. But here I am giving it a shot, at the encouragement of a dear friend who believes in me. Will I make mistakes....YOU can count on it. But I promise you will get me, my thoughts, my ideas, my hopes, my dreams, my loves, and my fears. It might not be very exciting to you, but it's me putting myself out there raw and open and I have NEVER done anything like this. Am I scared? You bet your blue knickers, but I want to try something different.
One of the first confessions about this CRAZY lady is.... I build walls! I build them high and strong and I don't like anyone trying to climb them, peer over them and I might turn into something really nasty if someone would dare try and take a stone off my wall. I don't like to get personal, I have a hard time even sharing with you what I am having for Lunch and yes I am even guilty of ignoring the occasional door greeter who has asked me if I needed any help. I find it very difficult to trust anyone. However, I am so thankful God is not leaving me this way! I am learning to tear down my walls and even let others help. I am learning it's O K that not everyone thinks a Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich is not the most awesome Lunch to have. And that If I place my trust in God I don't have to be afraid of anything else. Do I still have "ME" moments, yes I do and God gently and sometimes dramatically reminds me and I choose again to lay "ME" aside and follow Him.
So, as a person of high intelligence (which I'm sure you are...your hear reading my first blog) you might be asking your self "Why is this Socially Introverted Person doing this?" Because maybe, just maybe in one small way I might be a blessing to you. And because strange as it sounds I like people!
"When a train goes through a tunnel and it gets dark, you don't throw away the ticket and jump off. You sit still and trust the engineer." Corrie TenBoom Quotes
