Going Public

I Corinthians 10:31(b) "...whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." At the end of my life, I desire above all that I will be able to look back and say that my life was lived for His glory. 

I have heard the "still small voice" urging me to write for a long time now. It's time I obeyed. 

I have always written. I have pages and pages, notebooks and notebooks filled with scrawling. I write to process life. I write to understand myself. I write to understand others. I write to connect with God. I write to glorify God. Most all of what I have written, outside academic writing and a few small articles, has been for my own growth and my own purposes.

Fifteen months ago, God put someone into my life who has challenged my concept that my writing is really "my own." So, after months of urging, I submit! 

Here it is Diane...I'm "going public."

If any thoughts I share have value for a reader, if any words I write points a mind to God, if any element brings glory to God, then it has worth. 

Once upon a time I took on a challenge of a "Ten Day Experiment." As I sought to obey God in a specific area over those ten days, my life was eternally changed. That's a story for another day, but how 'bout another "Experiment?" 

So...for the rest of the year (all 35 days of it), what I have written and what I will write on this blog will be made public. Certainly not perfect, definitely not polished, but public.
