LSOF: What to keep, and what to let go…that is the question
I started this blog in 2006, and over the past 7 years I can only imagine what I have shared. I am sure there were times when I did encourage someone, but I am sure there were also times when I didn’t.
And really…that’s ok.
I have thought of just wiping the site clean of all my writing and start fresh, but then the thought occurred to me…
When you turn around and look where you have come from, you see footprints…each print with its own purpose for the step it took…each footprint can speak for itself…
And so then it led me back to the purpose of writing this blog…to share my little steps of faith.
I am not here to be a teacher, author, speaker…if you learn something, cool…if you don’t, cool…my purpose is to just write…to just share…and walk alongside those who share my journey.
So here’s just you and me, we all have stories…and we don’t always have to let go of things we love…we let go of what parts cannot exist in the present…and we leave them behind us.
I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.
(Isaiah 42:16)
I like how you say your just here to write and to share. Sometimes that’s exactly what someone needs more than being told exactly what they should and shouldn’t do. They just need someone to walk with them!
I agree completely, because I know I have been there too…:) Thanks so much for your comment 🙂
