Keeping in Touch

I never thought I would start a blog. Who would ever want to keep up with the mundane happenings in my life? However, after I heard the phrase “Keep in touch!” for the 325th time in the last two months, I realized this whole blog thing might not be such a bad idea. I guess the fact that I’m embarking on a whole new adventure, would give reason for some to pause and see what’s going on. So after deciding on blogging, I was then informed my first post should be “epic”.

epic: (adj.) heroic or grand in scale or character; of unusually great size or extent; majestic; impressively great.

Now, in my opinion, there is nothing grand or majestic about a 20-something girl from Alabama. But I will say, Jesus Christ sums up “epic” and exceeds it to an immeasurable standard. He’s taught me so much as I’ve walked with Him for most of my life. Through the highs and lows, He’s proved always faithful. And if you don’t know Him, I pray that you come to know Him. This life is not about having a impressively great career, friends, or even mate. It’s about making known the most epic story of all time: that God sent His only Son, perfect and blameless, to die a horrific death so that you and I can be united in a relationship with Him. Giving glory and honor to Christ means dying daily to oneself. And that, my friends, is what is truly epic.

So, there you have it. This blog will update you on big (and sometimes small) events and changes in my life, but hopefully, it will ultimately point you to One is way more important than me.
