I have to say that I'm having a little blogger angst. I'm shocked by how much I'm enjoying the writing and the interactiveness of blogging! This afternoon, however, I was hit hard by the thought that once I write something down and somebody actually reads it that I really should try to live it. Oh my noonies! (This is a phrase used by some much-loved former baby-sitters whose mother preferred it to "oh my gosh!")
I have to say that I am more than a little challenged and fairly horrified by the realization of the accountibility of this process. I think I like it, but it's pretty daunting. I was feeling like a real failure today after being pretty nasty to my sweet guys. They actually weren't entirely sweet either, but considering my current hormonal stage and the advantage of hind-sight, I'm realizing it was mostly my fault. Anyhoo...let's just say I wasn't acting on any of my deep ponderings and insightful resolutions.
I'm new at this, but I'm wondering if any of you experienced bloggers have had the same thoughts and feelings. Do you love it but want to erase all your posts for posterity after days like this?
On a last positive note, God has been ministering to me about His unconditional love for me this week. I exhale slowly when I think of it and say a prayer for thankfulness for grace.

Love your honesty! Yes I feel the same way too. I often wonder if I should erase things at times.
At these times God's unconditional love means so much more!
Blessings and much love my friend.

Hi Amy;
I just began blogging last month (hisinvitation.blogspot.com) and feel exactly the same way you do! Before I write and definitely before I hit "publish post", I ask God what He wants His children to know and pray that what is written is received His way. When I get nervous or anxious, I remind myself that the blog is purely for Him and that my purpose is to write His message. I find that as I write each message, there are lessons for me to learn and apply.
I have learned over the past few weeks that as long as we are obedient to Him, He will take care of the rest.
I hope you enjoy sharing His message.
