hello. blogging. world.

well in august i wrote a post about it being so long.
well now it is december & wow it has been long.
after much deliberation & dragging of my heels,
i decided to take the leap back in to the blogging world.

seriously,
this is more overwhelming than i can fully describe.
months and days and weeks and minutes of our life have not been shared.
but let's be honest,
i am not ever going to catch up on those,
so why waste more time "waiting" for me to do so?

so here i am.
december.
friday the 13th.
the LAST weekend alone while hubs travels.
that means this NFL season is coming to an end.
very quickly.
mind you, we have playoffs -
but the regular season is done in 3 more games.
last season i counted down 82 games.
this season i have counted down 16 games.
8 away.
8 home.
let's talk about perspective!

so in the next weeks as this year comes to a close,
i want to share our life.
our place.
our story.

that is why i started this blog.
to share our story.
our very small story telling the greatest story of them all.
we have been rescued by a Savior.
the King of Kings.
the Prince of Peace.
the Father of us all.

Jesus has relentlessly pursued us.
his scandalous grace has wrecked our lives
& we hope to never recover.
to live faithfully,
taking each day as it comes.
knowing he is steadfast.
& OUR story is not in vain.
we are not perfect,
but he is.
our life is not hopeless.
it has purpose.

to bring glory to his name!
