On becoming what I hate...

I first started blogging when I was in college. I'd always enjoyed both reading and writing, and since I was both stupid and opinionated I figured blogging was a great (read: FREE) way to put my opinions out there for the world to see. More seriously, I deeply desired to use blogging, as well as any kind of writing given my gifts in these areas, as a platform to disseminate the truth of God's Word, especially regarding issues which I feel are under heavy attack by the Enemy today.

That blog became defunct rather quickly as college got in the way. Last September, after much fanfare to friends and colleagues, I launched this blog. And it, too, quickly fizzled out. I have posted a grand total of five times this year, two less than when I started, and most of them in February. 

This is exactly the kind of blog I hate. And I've become it, shamelessly.

No, not shamelessly. Frustratedly. I work from home. Heavens, I blog for a living (don't ask). One would think I would find the time to blog regularly, with profit. But as with many things, I struggle to finish what I start. I;m not sure if this is always and everywhere a sin, but it does certainly make things harder. 

I'm not sure where to go from here, and it's not exactly like I can ask folks to pray for me, since I have almost no readers! But I simply must try to do better, be disciplined in my work and personal study so I have things to share on the blog here. Hopefully the Lord will allow me to build and audience and have an online community of whatever size with which to share His Truth, for His glory and their joy.
