Someone asked me the other day, "How can you put your life on the Internet?" For those who wonder why I put my life on paper and put it "out there", let me put your mind at ease. It's not an attention-seeking device or a question of "getting even" with my ex-husband. In my mind, it has served a much greater purpose. I believe that my experiences may possibly, have helped those who question their lives and the circumstances in which they may find themselves.
You see, I have lived a crazy sort of life. It has not been an easy, particularly carefree or fun. However, it is a life that has been greatly blessed by the incredibly rich experiences I have had. I share them because I want others to see, there are blessings even when bad things happen. God DOES use EVERYTHING! Even when we don't see it, it is being used by Him to bless us in some way. Despite my circumstances -- whatever they are-- I have always believed in God's sovereignty and I have always, always been grateful for His provision. He is the one who I answer to -- and it is my sole desire to please Him -- that drives my writing.
It has now been two years post-divorce. I am in a new relationship and learning more and more about being with someone. Is he "Mr. Right?" Time will tell. I do know this -- he makes me laugh, is incredibly fun to hang out with and makes me feel like a princess. The bottom line is, it has taken incredible faith in God, two years of intense therapy, and the help of some amazing spiritual and life mentors who are, as far as I can tell, angels sent by God. It's time to pay it forward.
And so, it is at this point that I have made a decision to change the scope of my writing just a bit. It is less about "Lisa" and more about Him. I am always on a journey toward self-discovery but it is time now to move away from the past and look to the future. So far, 2015 has been amazing, and I believe it will continue to be one heck of a year!
I continue my journey but I want you to join me on this journey. I invite you to take those first, tentative steps and do whatever it is you have been dreaming of. This is your life -- we only go around once. I encourage you to make the most of it! Read the Bible, pray and allow God to guide your footsteps as you work with me on sound concepts and ways to become the best you can be! Hopefully, we will work to make this journey a powerful one and leave this planet a better place!
God bless you as we go on this journey together -- with Him.
Lisa
