Getting started

I once had a conversation with someone who said, "If you're going to blog you need to do it for yourself".  So, that's what I've decided to do.  And if anyone is blessed by it or gets anything out of it then Praise the Lord for that!  


Why,"Waking up"?  I recently read the book, "Same Kind of Different as Me" by Ron Hall and Denver Moore.  A truly INCREDIBLE book.  At one part in the book a woman is serving food to a homeless man.  She notices that in spite of this mans foul smell and the dried vomit in his beard, he is smiling.  So she asks him, "Why are you so happy!"  To which he replies, "I woke up!  And that's reason enough to be happy!"


What a great perspective!  I thought about that.  If I wake up to another day then God has something planned and more He wants to accomplish through me, because "All the days ordained for me were written in His book before one of them came to pass." Psalm 139:16.
