Here goes

So, I have felt for a long time now that I should be writing, I just never got around to doing it.  I didn't really want to start a blog, just because I didn't really want that to be where I wrote things.  But then realized its not so bad, so here goes.  I am going to give this blogging/writing thing a try and see what happens.  I am not real good at grammer, and probably dont really care as much as I should about getting better at it.  So I apologize if what I write you dont understand or does not make sense.  I hope that what I write challenges you in some way or another that it will help you find truth in your life as well as encourage you.

I dont claim to know much, just like to observe things and figure out this thing called life.  I am a Christian and want to show people that Christianity is probably not what they think it is.  I believe that if your life as a Christian looks similar to that of someone who is not a Christian, then something is really wrong.  If Christ does not radically change your entire world and every area of your life, then something is wrong.  It is not some pansy, self help, theoretical thing that just makes me feel better about myself.  It is like finding the last piece of the puzzle and you feeling like you have found just what you're looking for.  But then you realize that completing that puzzle is just the beginning of things.  

Anyway, hope you enjoy things and let me know what you think.  

Disclaimer: (this is the stickler in me that is just making sure I have a way out)  :)
I sometimes have crazy random things I think about, so occasionally really weird thoughts may show up here.  I am human, I dont know it all and know that not everything I believe is 100% in line with Gods truths.  I  just want to be a traffic director, figuring out the best path in life and pointing people in the right direction.
