BLOGGING WHEN THERE IS NOTHING TO SAY

Today highlights the challenge of blogging. What do you blog when you can't think of anything to say? Do you just waffle, make something up or just give up? Is a few words enough or no words? Perhaps pictures or a link to a sermon? I'm just not sure!

It is a beautiful day, the sun is shining through my office window, the horses are grazing in the field and I can see the Isle of Wight peaking above the tree line. Yesterday was a great day - two baptisms, two great conversations with two guys striving to follow Jesus in every aspect of their lives. One a new Christian who is trying to understand how he tells his friends, another a brought-up Christian trying to understand what God's will is for him having just resigned from his job. Is there anything I can blog?

It all reminds me that I sense God's presence all around me, that I believe that God made all I see and that Jesus Christ came and lived and died and rose again so that I might be set free and have life in all its fullness. And it compels me onwards to do all I can to help others to feel his presence, love and forgiveness as well.

So this week, in every opportunity, I will lift Jesus higher so that the world might see and believe. Is that enough to blog about?
