I am so excited about this opportunity that I believe God has put on my heart! Not a "blogger" myself, I have had the opportunity to visit the blogs of friends and other groups that interest me. I just keep thinking that this has got to be a way to reach more women at Vaughn Forest and around our community (and thanks to the internet, the world)! I don't know where God will take this simple blog, but I know it's something that will bring us closer to Him if we use it for His glory! The uses of this blog in my opinion, are endless. I want this to be a place where women can be encouraged through God's word in a devotional, bible study or maybe from another sister in Christ who shares that she is facing a challenge similar to yours. I'd love to see women find common interests and form a discipleship or an accountability relationship. Cooking advice, parenting help......whatever the need is, I'm praying that this website will be a source of help and support to women in the body of Christ!
One common thread that I see in most of the blogs that I've visited is that the reader is interested in what the "blogger" has to say. I know that is NOT going to be the case here. I want to know what YOU have to say, especially now. I want to know what you'd like to see this website used for. I've got my ideas about things I'd like to do, but I'm interested in what you'd like to see. I can't promise that we'll get to do everything, but I'd love to get some creative ideas.
There will be many upcoming posts over the next few weeks - maybe some contributions from some Vaughn Forest women that you know and love - so keep checking back. I can't wait to see what God will do with this! I'm already blown away by something He worked out PERFECTLY just yesterday involving this blog! (You 'll have to wait to find out!) Until then, I hope to hear from you on this site!
Love, Melissa
