A New Beginning

As the majority of you will already know, my friend Jen and I started a bog together called "The Wheatfield", at the beginning of the year. Since then Jen has gone back to school and with that has decided to stop writing for the time. With her absence, I decided to begin a whole new blog on my own, while still keeping the old one for those who might be interested in seeing the past posts.

With that being said, I formally WELCOME you to “Becoming New” and pray that you might find it in some small way to be an encouragement. One thing I am always afraid of in doing this, is that because I’m human, people will see things in my life that didn’t mirror what I am writing, thus thinking me a hypocrite. That said, I’d like to say up front that it’s not because I am an expert at following Christ that I write. I write because Christ is always showing me how far I still have left to go. And so, these writings are from a heart that is very thankful that God doesn’t give up on me, and is patiently teaching me new things every day. It’s because I am so very week, that I know I need Him so very much. Thank you for visiting and I hope that each of you find your source of strength in your Lord and Savior. Blessings!

Jen,
I’m so glad the Lord is directing you in this new phase of life. May you always feel His love for you and be lead by His word. Outside of my sisters, you have been one of my closest friends; I will miss doing "The Wheatfield" together. Your posts were always such a blessing to me, but I am so excited to see what God has in store for you next. Thanks for all your encouragement. Love ya girl. Thanks for being like a Sis.

Your old blog said to leave a comment even if it was just my name so I am doing that right now. It is always an encouragement to me when I read your blog. Thx for putting so much time and thought into what you do.
