in keeping with tradition

In keeping with the not-so-current yet still current trend of not writing/updating my blog in forever, I thought that I would do just that tonight! I hope that this update finds everyone doing well. It finds me sitting in a booth in a McDonald's by myself mooching free Internet for the low price of the large coffee that I bought an hour ago. I didn't really have intentions of coming up here to write a blog entry, but when the Internet keeps going out every time I'm halfway through doing something else...I thought I might as well go ahead and do this. 

This entry finds me with such a longing heart. Here lately I have truly had the mind-set and heart-set that this world is not my home at all. I feel so out of place most days. I'm so ready to see my all-powerful Father in heaven. I just want to be where He is. I cannot wait for the day that I'm called home to be with Him.

Here lately I've been going through the book of Deuteronomy and have been learning so much about God's great providence and the fact that his love is so different from the way that I'm even able to love. He is showing me the grandeur of His greatness on a day in and day out basis. I just wanted to write on here to let folks now that I am, in fact, still alive. 

I hope that this update finds you doing well and that it may possibly encourage you to seek the Lord with more of your heart. Believer, realize that this world is not your home! May you be filled with a heart of longing to be in the presence of the throne-room of the Almighty One! I am praying for those of you who may read this blog entry - that all of us together may "press on to know the Lord" (Hosea 6:3). He is good and worthy of our lives…which is still an offering to small.
