We are entering the week of
the Thanksgiving holiday. I know we’ll all be busy shopping, cooking, cleaning
and traveling in preparation for Thursday.
I wanted to take this time
to express my thanks to all of you who have supported me in my blog adventures
for the last six months. When I decided to start a blog, I think I had a
headache every day. Designing the site, trying to figure out what to say (I’m
still doing that!), uploading photos, joining blog-hops…it was all so
overwhelming.
And every time I’d push “publish”
on post, I’d hold my breath. Is this any good? Will anyone come to read it?
Will anyone comment?
And now, six months later, I
still have the occasional migraine over writing. But I am constantly humbled
and blessed by your support and presence here. I named the blog ‘Evangelize To
Me’ because I wanted to learn from you as much as I wanted to write. Your
insightful comments have added new ideas about post content, cited
Scripture references, made me laugh, and added your own life experiences.
And that’s the best thing of
all. When you relate some of your life to me, I get to know you better. I love
that. We all have such important stories to share, and they announce the
presence of the Lord in everyday life.
Thank you for joining me
here. I am so grateful for every single visit. I love to see your smiling faces
through the photos and your special icons in the ‘join this site’ section. But whether you
are there or joining me on Bloglovin' or by email, know that I pray for all of you. And I know that God will
hear me and bless you for the kindness you have shown and the blessing you have
been.
When Thanksgiving Day comes,
and I count my blessings, you all will be on that list. You are on notice
though…you can never leave! Let’s promise to always evangelize to each other,
and prove that God magnifies himself in us every day.
