I had planned to write to you today about my disbelief in belonging in this space, here at Outside the City Gate. I could have provided Tammy and Amy with a list of others more qualified to share words with you.
My belief . . . my words are unworthy and not-enough.
Numerous times I intended to contact Tammy with an excuse to push off my turn to share. Truth be told, I had a good reason to delay as my husband’s return from Afghanistan was only days away. I had a homecoming to prepare for.
But God (two of my favorite words in the Bible) had other plans. When I would begin to draft an email to Tammy with my reasonable excuse for delaying and God would stop me. “Not yet. I have words for you to share. Wait on me.”

“How great is our God – sing with me
How great is our God – and all will see
How great, how great is our God”
As I hum I wonder, how can I sing of His greatness yet still long for more? What is the more I am longing for?
Would you join me over at Outside the City Gate where I am sharing my first post as a regular contributor? You can read the rest of my post here.

Bummer! I don't do Facebook ... I hope maybe you'll share little recaps or snippets here and there?

Linda, I did think of you when I decided to share on Facebook only. I'm trying out something to see if this still allows for you to read. See landing page >> http://withlove-simplybeth.blogspot.com/p/31-days-of-navigating-to-new-normal.html
DeleteIf that doesn't work let me know. Hugs.
Super-dupe ... Works perfectly! Thanks for going the extra step to accommodate us Facebook-less readers!
DeleteI so respect your decision not to spread yourself too thin all over social media world. Wise, you are!
Love ya!

I echo what Linda said...bummer for those of us who aren't on Facebook!
