Let’s just put the truth out there at the beginning. The one who’s been away from this blog is I. I’m not much different than the rest of the world in that I awake each day with great intentions. Yes, grand intentions for faithfully writing and sharing my own journey. While my intentions may be honorable, my work product has been nearly nonexistent.

Oh, to be sure, I can come up with lots of reasons and even justifications for missing my intended goals. As I sit here writing however, I am forced to recall the words of an old friend. David, is a corporate trainer whose classes I attended in the late 1980s. (Yes I can sort of remember back that far) He suggested that when we are compiling our reasons for missing our goals we remember this simple truth: “In life we have either our results or are reasons why not. Reasons or Results. Argue for your reasons and they are yours. Work for your results and they are yours.”

Sometimes, I really didn’t want to hear this from him, but it seems amazingly applicable to me today.

So rather than argue for my reasons, I hereby recommit to this website and to blogging my faith journey. I believe God has given me a story to tell and it would be inappropriate and disrespectful to Him who gave it not to tell it.

So I say welcome back to you the reader. I pray that my blog will be thought-provoking, occasionally funny and most of all inspirational.

And I boldly say to Paula: welcome back to the work God has given you.

Blessings,
Paula
