The Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Beginning – what an appropriate word use as a starting point. If you take a quiet moment, how many beginnings can you recall throughout your life? The first beginning is obvious, our birth. I recall a specific silent weekend retreat that I, and some members of our church, attended every year. One particular year, one of the facilitators asked that we draw a picture of the highlights of our journey – our beginnings throughout our life. Not being much an artist, I didn’t have much hope in creating a piece of award-winning art and I was even resistant to this crazy idea of identifying numerous beginnings in my life. But, as usual, God surprised me! What I was able to create on paper of memorable turning points in my life opened my eyes to my unique journey of faith. I still have that drawing to this day! This blog is another new beginning for me. The beginning of sharing God’s word or, as my blog is titled, “From God’s Lips.” I must acknowledge that the collection of positive words and accompanying stories that I will post once each week are not my own creation. They are God’s words – words that come to my mind, which I am humbled to write for Him. He is the true author – He is the author of yours and my life! Together, let’s make him proud!
Come join me on this new beginning, full of surprises, and quiet moments with God. I pray that you will be inspired, humbled, and full of joy, knowing that God loves each of us in a very special way.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1
I hope that you will consider sharing “From God’s Lips” blog with a friend, family member or maybe someone you just met that may need a positive word from God each week to inspire to grow their faith. Thank you.
