Why this blog...

1/24/2016

I thought first about "Why write a blog"... any blog?

Then I had to think more specifically about, "Why this blog?"

​My purpose remains the same, as expressed in this excerpt from my first post... Sep 20, 2009:
It feels like somewhat of a paradox: the desire to share God's blessings while simultaneously being aware that nothing well learned is imposed by others. As the song writer wrote about the teacher, "His job is to shed light, and not to master."

In attempting this blog..., I do have thoughts that I would like to share. They go out with a humble desire to shed a bit of light, and not to master.

As badly as my bones need refreshed, I suppose this is somewhat of a selfish endeavor. But along with that, I harbor a deep desire to comfort and strengthen other believers.

I hope that will be evident in the entries that follow.
