It's been almost a year since my very first post on my
5AM blog. I have enjoyed having a place to force me to acknowledge my daily blessings. The accountability I have over there is something I sort of expected, but could have never fully grasped without diving into it. What I didn't expect, however, is the opportunity that my 5AM blogging would give me to encourage others. Over the summer I was approached by Jocelyn Green of
Faith Deployed to submit monthly articles for that website. Wow! Talk about a surprise. I dove in and discovered that
1. It's not that easy to write.
2. I think there is a place for a voice such as mine.
3. Because of #2, I needed to get better at #1.
I've been thinking a lot about #3 and I believe it is time to take another plunge. Hence Page Two is born. I'll definitely be over at 5AM more, but I hope you'll join me here for a few more war stories and a little closer look at the grace and joy that can only be found in the trenches.
Life is hard, but God is good.
To Him be the glory.
