Easy?

This is my first try at a blog. I am a little nervous!

From my limited experience, blogs can be wonderful things! I enjoy reading my friends' blogs to see what they are thinking about and as a different way of staying in touch. I have read blogs in an effort to learn more about the world around, and to waste a little time at work. This is not always for good stuff, sadly, as I must admit that I have a rather unhealthy attachment with a certain celebrity news blog!! I wrote about them in research papers as a sociological example of how the postmodern culture deals differently with information. They are radically changing the way that we communicate.

All that said, I am rapidly realizing that it is much easier to read another person's blog and critique/comment than to actually have to write my own.

I guess that is how it is with a lot in life. To use the old cliche: Easier said than done.

This platitude is especially true with love. It is so easy to talk about how we should love everyone as they are our neighbors and children of God. But how does this really work? If we say we love, then what are we doing to act out that love? How far does that love call us to step out of our comfort zones? That's what I hope this blog will focus on: How are we attempting to love as we journey with Christ?!

Do I have it right or all figured out? Of course not! But there is joy in the journey, right? Easier said than done!
