Thinking About Changing Things...
I want to get your take on some changes I have been mulling over in my head as of late. My walk as a believer has been amazing to say the least. We believers tend to have experiences quite the opposite from the rest of the world. Duh, Celi, no news here...LOL. Obviously. What I mean is, I have come to realize that the further along I go in my walk, the less I know. Finding a niche for this blog compared to all the millions of millions of blogs out there is getting harder for me the longer I have it. What is my purpose for placing my thoughts on this page and is it truly beneficial for anyone to read other than myself over and over again in the darkness of the night...sob...weep...sigh?
I'd like to expand Profits of Silver further than just my spiritual ramblings. I'd like to ask, how many of us ramble spiritually inside of our heads, talking to God, throughout the day? I do constantly. While I'm washing dishes, changing diapers, picking up toys and sorting clothes...all day long. And every now and then I get this thought that says, "ooh, that's good I need to blog about that," but the day passes into the evening then the next day comes and that little rambling is now archived somewhere in the dusty vacant lot of my brain. It's a scary place. Then this evening I realized, what is so special about my ramblings compared to yours? There is so much wisdom out there and I read it in YOUR blogs. I hear it in my ears when I talk to fellow believers or listen to amazing sermons, and obviously when I read the Scriptures.
What I would like to do when I talk expansion is include some fun activities I do with the family. Things like creative cooking ideas for kids, involving kids, sneaky ways to get them to eat healthier, fun crafts, KONOS projects we did that could be beneficial to anyone to do, inexpensive outdoor and indoor games we do using everyday items...etc, etc. I don't know much that most women don't already do in regards to most departments but I do know that I need to spend more time with my family. And instead of abandoning all outside communication with the world, why can't I pick up the fantastic experiences we have after we are done and share them with my friends in the off chance you might want to try them too?
Obviously, every now and then when I am robbed of sleep in the deep of the night with a yearning to post some spiritual rambling of some sort, I would still like to do that too but I am worried that this blog is becoming a bit, well, heavy. Heavy is good every now and then. It's prolific but is it the direction for THIS blog? Is it me?
Anyway, I come to you, my reader, because honestly, I probably have only one. Hahaha. And I ask you,faithful friend, what are your thoughts?
