Hallelujah! Let’s Go!

What an answer to prayer to finally have this blog up and running! Woohoo! I am SO excited to get started! This has been a roller coaster of a year for our family with SO many life changes. Part of me, a REALLY BIG part, wants to go back to try and capture all the details of the last year, but instead I’m pressing on. Wow, am I actually saying that?! Yes! (I’m sure you’ll get tidbits here and there of what we’ve been up to this past year!)
Earlier this evening, the kids and I were watching reels of our home movies from 8-10 years ago (pre-homeschooling days!). I was reminded of just how important it is to make sweet memories with your family now (right NOW!) and to make a point of recording it all somehow before it all passes away into that part of the brain that, well, you know, that part that . . . what was I saying LOL? Exactly. That’s part of my mission with this blog – to capture the journey – for me, for my husband, for my kids, and for anyone who may be interested in tagging along! You know, it’s interesting to watch a video from ten years ago and to realize that even though we had no idea where we would be now, ten years later, the Lord knew the whole time. I find such comfort in that. It’s truly amazing to see how He was working in even the tiniest of ways in order to bring us where we are today.
This life He gives us is definitely a journey. (Hence the name for this blog - Pursue the Journey!) WE only know the FINAL destination, but HE knows the ins and outs of EVERY single step, path, nook & cranny of every turn that will eventually get us there. Having a record of this journey is like having a road map of the plan and purpose God had for your life and what it took to get you from start to finish. It’s an incredible testimony. That is something I want to be able to pass along.
I have many, many things to share with you and to journal for myself. This blog will be kind of hodge-podge of posts. I had considered splitting things up (home/business/ministry/etc.) to keep everything more organized, but I realized how difficult that will be for me right now. So instead, I’ll do my best to keep everything organized here within categories. That makes things much easier for me. Eventually, I’ll add some pages to the navigation bar above. But for now, I don’t want there to be any hindrances. No more waiting for things to be just so-so before jumping in!
Are you ready? I am! Welcome to our journey! I hope it’s a blessing to us both LOL!
