Foreword

A first post requires a foreword, a statement of faith and purpose.

Mine is the glory of God.

I admit, I cannot do it all of the time. In fact, I fail most of the time. But it is the wish and the desire that counts, for it is that which spurs me on when I fail and keeps me strong when I am weak.

Lord, let my life be a testament to Your love and power. I am but a private in His mighty army, a cowardly one at that, but He is a great commander and I know He can use me for His purpose, whether small or large, in the world. May I understand the answer to my prayer when it comes, and may I be humble to accept it.

I want to learn many things in life. May I praise the Lord in all I do, be diligent with His blessings, and show others His love through my actions and faith.

So help me, God. Amen.
