When busy or not feeling well, I share inspiration I didn't come up with. Both are occurring right now, there is much to do before moving on Friday and I've had a decent headache for about 36 hours now.
Get Service:
I was tagged by Jessica, a sweet online friend to list how blogging has effected me:
#1 A feeling of comfort and blessing from other women willing to be vulnerable. You offer advice and support during our journey to build a family as well as everyday life. I can't tell you how much that has touched me.
#2 An outlet to get my thoughts and feelings down. I tend to linger about them less if I can get them out of my system and writing has done that for me since I was a child. A chance to battle my own perfectionism and just be real. It took until my 30's for me to feel like I could just be myself with more than just 2 or 3 people at a time. There's still plenty of work for God to do in my heart.
#3 Prayers, I feel them. I have that feeling more often these days where I just know the only way I got through something because I know stronger people than me are out there lifting us up to the Lord.
#4 Staying connected to people. Yes, nothing replaces a good old fashioned phone call or visit in person. In between those, it's great feeling of community to keep up with friends & strangers here.
#5 Inspiration and perspective from people who are carrying much heavier burdens than I am. God works on me to be a better person through all of you. I truly admire and respect others who have motivation & courage to be vulnerable in our snap decision, judgmental world. It's because I've seen what other's words have done in my own heart that I share hoping to pass that feeling onward.
Feel free if you read this to share how blogging has touched you, can't wait to read others :-)
