The Spearhead

Who knew that starting a blog would be so easy? Not me. However, this is the first of maybe a few projects that I will begin in attempts to display some of the random activities that situate my mind. Some are futile, others provoke much thought. My original intent was to publish encouraging and uplifting pieces that many might identify with in sporadic situations... hopefully that will be accomplished as well.

There's a lunar eclipse tonight.  Some circumstances prevent us from certain shared experiences, which situations may prove to be good, bad or indifferent. For example, you're so caught up in debt that while struggling to pay one bill, you forget about your tuition bill and scramble at the last minute to register for classes. Or, the one day that you're not so broke, you're able to treat a good friend for dinner. Perhaps one day, you wake up for class, turn off the alarm and consciously go back to bed. Say there's a party going on, and you miss it. Just so happens that your buddies get shot at and one of your closest friends is killed. All of the above have happened to me. I guess that's why I'm not that pressed about making plans and keeping up with what everyone else is doing. I didn't get to see the eclipse, though it would have been nice to look at. It's pretty cloudy out anyway. 

This post is titled Spearhead, in hopes that there will be a nice follow through project behind it, though I'm not counting on it. I've actually taken up journaling as a hobby, which consists mostly of private entries, prayers, and hopes. This may just be for reflection, idea creation and commentary on the things pertaining to common experiences. Jesus is with me, and I plan to be with Him as well. There's so much to say about my Lord, so even if you do mind there will be plenty of exaltation in Him! One thing that I absolutely do not enjoy is self glory and boasting of myself. I am nobody. However, I am who I by the grace of God, and it's through my experiences that I've come to know Him! He's the greatest =)

The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, and he delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the LORD upholds him with His hand. Psalm 37:23-24
