Hello Blogger.com

Well hello! My first blog on Blogger.com. I have been blogging for a few years now, mostly random thoughts and things that strike me as funny. I will be transferring some of my favorite blogs over to this new site, but for the most part this is a brand new day.

My goal is to blog about my work, my relationships, my children, and to give helpful tips when I see one that is worth sharing. Life is a journey and the best way to remember that journey is to journal it. Hmmm...Journey & Journal...same prefix. I'm sure that is not a coincidence. I suppose I should start with who I am and what I do. Let me introduce myself then...

My name is Jennifer. I was born in New Jersey in 1972. I was the first of 2 children and before my sister was born my dad joined the United States Air Force. You'll learn more about my adventures in the military throughout my blogging. I am currently living in Georgia. I am married and I have 3 wonderful children. They are 10, 9 and 7...and yes they keep me very busy. I work in radio. Not just any radio, Christian radio! I am blessed to be doing what I do, and I'm sure I'll blog more about that part of my amazing journey.

So that is just a bit of who I am...there is so much more, but again...I will blog about that as time passes. I hope that you gain insight as you read my blogs, and I hope that I can encourage you to keep on keeping on. This life is a difficult journey at times, and in those times of difficulty I know if it had not been for good friends, I would not be here today. I'll try not to be to vague, but I am not one to be so explicit either. If you want to know more all you have to do is ask. This is my life, my thoughts, my dreams, my ideals, and I am happy to share all of them with you.

Peace & Blessings,
Jen

When you ask...

Jesus to use you, be ready! I knew when I completely surrendered my life to Christ that it would be a challenge and not easy. (Romans 7:25) Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin. I honestly thought that I had no comfort zone, but it seems that every time I get "comfortable", God changes the direction in which I am going or He intercedes personally by allowing me to encounter a life that is going through a struggle, and it "interferes" with "my life". So I have come to the understanding I will never be comfortable, and I am becoming OK with that. I have also come to realize that if I am in a state of being comfortable, then I am not growing spiritually. (Psalm 119:2) Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart Last night during Bible study as we were going over the passage in Ephesians 4,...

Discipline In Discipleship

Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior is easy. We learn at a young age that Jesus is knocking at our hearts and is asking to enter in. We sing songs of God's love. We so very quickly accept God's forgiveness when we sin. We can justify our actions through Jesus loving us as we are. Following Jesus as Master and Teacher is hard. Again, we learn at a young age that the world is a cold, cruel place. We view hatred on TV and social media. To forgive when we have been wronged is almost impossible. To put another person's needs before ours is practically unheard of. To understand someone else's actions takes too much effort. Jesus never said being a follower would be easy. As a matter of fact, he said that it would be a narrow road that few would be able to travel. "S o in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,   for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.  “Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to...

Inside Outside

Why do we view sins as not so bad, bad, and really bad? I have been thinking a lot about this over the past week. Isn't sin, sin? Are we to judge as God judges? God's word says; "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." -Romans 3:23 My sins, and they are many, are not better or worse than yours or your neighbors - or anyone else's for that matter. So who are we to pass judgement on another? Why spew contentment and hate when we know what another person's sin is? Isn't God's forgiveness and love for them just as much as it is for us? There is no "them" and "us" in the eyes of God so we need to stop dividing people up into these two categories. " Dear friends, let us love one another,  for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God  and knows God.   Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.   This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son  into the wor...
