Transition

After nearly 4 years here at Blogger, I'm making a transition over to Wordpress.  Blogger has served me well, but I need more features to simplify my busy life.  Blogger has served me well over these nearly 4 years and I have been grateful for the opportunities and the readers that I have gained here.

In the interim, I will continue to post here and on the new blog as well.  I hope that if you have joined me and followed me here that you will make the transition with me.  I am grateful for the readers that I have had and the opportunities to share my life in words with people who are willing to read.

Happy 200th Post



It's hard to believe that nearly 4 years ago, I followed the advice of my wife and some others who urged me to start this blog.  I'd heard about blogging before but never really thought that I had time or anything worthwhile to say, at least not enough to be regular with a blog.  In the midst of the craziness of life, I started this blog.

It was June of 2009, a year after I had started seminary.  Now, it's 2013 and so much has happened.  Seminary is behind me, I lost my mother nearly 2 years ago, and my father's health is failing, I'm not sure how long we will have him for.  In spite of all of the craziness of life, I am thankful to God that I have had this blog as an outlet.  It has helped me through so much of the struggles that I have had and I hope that as I have shared, something that I have said has made an impact on some of the readers that I have reached.

I know that there aren't many people who read this, but I certainly appreciate all of you who do.  Thank you for your support and encouragement over the years.  Thanks for taking an interest in the way that I have expressed myself.  Thanks for recommending the blog to friends, for reposting the posts on Facebook, or retweeting my tweets on Twitter.  I am grateful for all of you.

As I look to the future, I hope that I can be more consistent with this blog and that I might gain some more readers in the midst of it.  I hope that God will continue to use me as I share about my own experiences on this journey through life.  Thanks again for reading and may God richly bless you!
