A number of years ago I was given 2 prophetic words which
both included amongst other things about me starting to write and share what
God gives me via the written like blogging.
Well I had never even considered blogging as I am somewhat
of a technophobe and not that big into the social media world. I have a basic
Facebook account but have never used Twitter or Instagram or any of the other
social media sites out there and the concept of starting a blog frankly
terrified me.
However I gave it a try in 2011 and blogged my 1st
blog however since then due to life’s business as well as my reluctance I have
not given it another go………………………………...
Until now.
Why now after years of having a dormant blog site would I
decide to begin posting? I guess the short answer is another question – “how
can I truly say that I am sold out to Jesus and that He is my everything if I
am not obedient to the things He asks of me?” I cannot even begin to imagine
that day when I am standing before Him giving an account for my life and can
only give excuses, you see we will not be judged on what we do but on what we
were called to do. What do I have to loose anyway? If I go ahead and face the
challenges of my fears and insecurities then that can only be good for me,
however if God has called me to blog for whatever His reasons are then I want
to “go for gold” that I would end my life being able to say that I did respond
to Gods words and that I took a step of faith.
I want to hear those words on that day – “Well done My good
and faithful servant” rather than being left with a mouth full of excuses. This
has nothing to do with “works mentality” and I most certainly serve a loving
and kind God and know that He desires more than me that I step into all that He
predestined for me, not out of guilt or condemnation but out of absolute love,
adoration and thanks to Him.
