I prayed that God help me make time to blog, and so He has.
I've learned expressing myself through writing and blogging is a part of my being. I've been doing this since childhood, when I first learned how to write. The only awards I ever won in high school were two English awards -- one for literature and one for composition. I had about a couple stories published in some sort of kids publication, and I won an award for a Mother's Day essay I "accidentally" wrote. Then all that ended when my Asian parents "encouraged" me to do something medical-related. Haha.
It's a God-given gift, and I dare not crumple it up and throw it in His face by ignoring and neglecting it. In fact, I couldn't even do it if I tried. I get a little short-tempered when I don't express myself (who doesn't?), especially through writing, so you can only imagine how I've been in the last few weeks!
Much has happened since my last entry. The biggest thing is that I'm married now. Yup, I'm Mrs. Vo, and it sounds SO good to hear out loud, so keep those greetings coming! :) The second biggest thing is that I'm still walking with God. Yeah, I consider that a big thing. This world is filled with such pleasurable temptations, that it's so easy to fall away, and it takes such an effort to keep Him in our lives. Being that I'm still walking with Him, He has shared so many things with me that I've been dying to share with the world - not because I feel the need to be heard, but I feel the need for the world to hear it. Thank you, Lord, for helping me find this time once again. Here we go...
