The Beauty of Young Life

Welcome dear one!

This year I found October sneak up on me with quiet footsteps as my mind continued busily without acknowledging its presence.  I now have wrestled internally everyday that I haven’t begun this writing challenge; the sadness of the joy I may miss continuing to beckon me to return.  So here I am; unabashed at my late entry, but nevertheless full of breathless excitement.

The Write 31 Days challenges have continually been a blessing to me, and I pray the Lord uses them in some small way to pass on that blessing to others.  Nothing would make my heart sing a louder song of praise than that the journey I’ve been on has been one small part of how the Lord has whispered to another’s soul of his great love.  I know the Lord moves in his own timing and way, but the honor of being a part of his plan is never lost as I recognize it.

This year, I am so grateful to write about the newest journey of my life: being a volunteer leader for Young Life!!  It has ushered into new people, places, adventures, and lessons from the Lord, and I am grateful for every.single.one.  I am looking very much forward to diving in deeper and digging for more.  I love uncovering what lies buried underneath my conscious layer as the words spill upon the page (screen).

So join me? I’d be honored by your presence, and I would be humbled by your comments and feedback. This page will be the landing for the all the subsequent posts in this series.
