The First Step

There has been so much going on in the world lately. 

Politics, health crisis, hate, injustice...and though I have always been a lover of the news, now it overwhelms me.

I have spent a majority of the last year learning.

Learning about the world around me. 

My eyes have been opened to a history that I didn't know was there. 

Thoughts and belief systems that once seemed true and strong have broken under the weight of truth.

And I don't know what to do with it all except to press in and press on...thus the title of my blog :)

My head swirls with thoughts that I can't make sense of. Things that make me really sad and things that make me really angry.

There have been good times in my learning too. I have learned more about my Creator and how much He loves me. I can now see Him in things that previously had gone unnoticed. 

This blog is going to be a chronicle of my journey. A journey to an unknown destination, and one that I am sure will be full of more questions than answers. 

But a journey that I need to take. 

Status quo doesn't sit right with me anymore. I am not sure how one person can make a difference, but I do know that I can't just sit on what I now see and am learning.

I believe in the God of the Bible. I love him with all of my being. So He will definitely be a part of this journey...in fact, He is leading it. 

So this is the first step in a journey I am taking to expose the brokenness in my own life, in my own history, and in my own thoughts.

Thanks for coming along.....
