Lately, I have been inspired and encouraged to try my hand at blogging once again. I attempted it when we were in the adoption process and while in China, but for some reason the entrance of a 14-month old into our lives took away my blogging time. I actually did good to get photos posted at that point. Anyway, several friends have been blogging for quite a while and my brother has created an awesome one showcasing many of his interests. I will gladly accept suggestions at any time - since this is all fairly new to me.
The name of the blog represents how I feel about life - blessed BEYOND MEASURE. Sure, life throws many curve balls along the way - and at times I have wondered why things happen...until I see God's promises unfolding before my eyes. I am blessed BEYOND MEASURE because God loved me enough to send His Son to save me - and I am covered by His grace and mercy every day. I am blessed BEYOND MEASURE because I had the best earthly examples of God's love who happened to have been my parents. I am blessed BEYOND MEASURE because I have a wonderful family here and abroad. I am blessed BEYOND MEASURE because I met and married my best friend. I am blessed BEYOND MEASURE because I have recently become a mother of a child who holds my heart in her tiny, little hands. I am blessed BEYOND MEASURE because I have gone through some really bad things in recent years, and I know that God carried me through most of it. The way I feel about life is that way that I believe we should all feel about it. WE ARE ALL BLESSED BEYOND MEASURE.
My posts will most likely deal with my personal passions in life - adoption and orphan care is among those at the top of the list. Also, I would like to become more computer savvy like Ralph and post some cool videos and links. I am not sure how many will be interested in them. But...we will see. And so it begins....
