I Am Changing

When the new year rolled around I fully intended to get this blog more organized. I wanted to set a schedule and be more consistent with my post. Although good intentions were there, the opposite is what happened, I completely stopped blogging.

January was a busy month for us and since my husband had off of school the whole month, we decided to focus our attention on getting projects around the house started, organizing our mess, getting E's 4th birthday together, and celebrating our 5 year wedding anniversary.

We have been busy, but that is only part of the reason I stopped blogging. Sometimes blogging can feel overwhelming. There is so much I want to say and so much I want to share, but I fear the boundaries of sharing too much and pouring out my heart. However, if there is one thing I have always promoted with blogging, that is honesty. Lately I feel like I've let my fear overtake being honest.

If I were honest with you I would tell you that I've changed, or to be more accurate, I am changing. 
Over the course of the last year, I've truly began to explore my faith.
I accepted Jesus Christ as my savoir.
I began to read the word.
I've seen God work in our lives. 

I say I am changing because I am learning what it means to live as a Christian.  
To not just read the word, but to live by it. 
To show love. 
To show compassion. 
To forgive. 
To trust. 
To glorify.

And through this season of change, I'm feeling a little lost on how to share that. It's easy to have a before and an after, but what about the middle?
How do you share your thoughts and feelings amidst change?
How will old friends and family respond to your change?
How will blogging about my faith change my readership?

These are all questions I haven't figured out. Questions I am afraid ashamed to speak out loud. Nonetheless, they are questions that will be answered along the way, because I am changing.

E & I want you all to know how much we love you :)
