I know I haven't been around so much for awhile now. Not even sure anyone is still out there. If there is, you've probably noticed that I've posted in spurts for quite a few months. I'm active for awhile and then drop off for awhile.
I've really been struggling over the last year or so to find a balance. A balance with family, with church, with work, with rest, and so on. All those things that many of us struggle with each and everyday.
I'm learning that I don't have to be 100% at everything 24 hours a day. (Actually, it's something I've known for a long time... just haven't acted like it much!) There is a time for family, a time for work, a time for rest, a time for church activities, and so on.
Likewise, I don't have to post each and everyday or even every week. Sure, I would like to. I enjoy the time I write here. Writing out my Bible studies and the direction God is leading is a great way for me to sort out my thoughts and beliefs. Hopefully, as I share in this little corner of the internet, someone will find something that speaks to them. BUT, I can write here and it not be everyday or even every week.
This may not seem like a big deal, but for me it is. I tend to put alot of pressure on myself to do things in a certain way. About 98% of the time, that pressure is coming from me and me alone... not from anyone else.
So, I hope to be around here more. But, it probably won't be any regular type of schedule. And, it won't be because I've placed some sort of pressure on myself that I have to post every week or every 3rd Monday or whatever.
Now that I've said all that and probably "over-talked" all about not keeping a schedule with posting, I have started posting elsewhere on a regular schedule. (Yes, you can laugh now at the irony... but, hopefully, you'll understand where I'm coming from.) Twice a month on Sundays, you can find me sharing a scripture on the blog for the "Christian Artists Street Team on Etsy" (CAST).
About a year ago, I opened a shop on Etsy and about 6 months ago joined the CAST team, reading their blog, and then had the opportunity to join the blog team. It's a great blog full of posts by other Etsy shop owners that love to be creative and to do so for the Lord. If you are looking for another blog to follow this is a great one. You can find it at: http://castteametsy.blogspot.com/.
I hope to see you around here again soon! Enjoy a great holiday weekend!
