*continues with desert metaphor*

Okay. So I'm hopping off of Eric's last post by sharing a desert of my own. My desert place the past few weeks has SO been this blog. I've been all dry and parched with the whole blogging thing. Do I be silly? Comical? Thoughtful? Serious? What can I write that will intrigue readers?

My problem? Well, lately my brain is in the mode of feeling unclever and unimpressive? and yes... I said unclever. Webster-worthy, no?... Anyhoo I know that I very much want this blog to be something that makes people smile or connect or at the very least, think. And I've pretty much had a whole lot of nothing to give in that department.

That is until I came across a blog at my local church website by a man named Jonathon Drake that really touched me today. It spoke to me in a way that connected with exactly how I've felt a lot lately, and gave me hope that even in those moments when pain grips your heart the most, God's waits for you on the other side of your hurt with comforting arms and a hopeful future. And while this is only me posting from my oasis,(I am still so in the middle of a desert with the whole blogging thing) I did want to share it because it felt like my lesson from God for today, and it only seemed right to provide others with opportunity to get a lesson too ;)
