I’ve come to the realization that this blog is missing something. Actually, it’s missing a couple of things.

Through the Extreme Makeover posts (Part 1 and Part 2), I’ve learned the importance of writing my posts on paper, the importance of keywords, linking to other blogs, and more importantly not just reading other blogs, but taking the time to show I really am interested in what they have to say by commenting. Those are just a few things that I have found so important when blogging. But the one thing that I always seem to forget to include is the One who deserves all the glory for “success.” His name is God.

I just can’t write or speak or blog without God. Things go terribly wrong when I leave out the key ingredient. Perhaps you can tell when I decide to leave God out when you read this blog. Maybe those are the days when you decide not to stop by, or don’t want to or need to comment. And maybe those are the days when my posts seem dull and boring.

For me, when I leave out God, nothing goes right, and it’s obvious to me. But God wakes me up, and I am able to turn things around, and get back on the right track, trusting that He’ll lead me where He wants with His power and not mine.

So, I need to fix a few things. Expect some comments from me on your blogs, because I really do read them, and really do enjoy them. And expect a bigger focus on Him who able to far more than even I can imagine.

I know that when I take the focus off of myself in everthing I do, God will bless. And I pray that we all keep that in mind as we continue in our walk with the Lord.
