And Here We Go...

So, to start out: I really used to hate the idea of blogging. I'm not sure why, but it's never appealed to me at all. However, this past semester the phenomenon that is blogging seemed to slowly take over my immediate group of friends. And even more slowly, as I've begun to follow my friends blogs, my views on the subject seemed to shifted.

Which brings me to my current activity of starting one myself.

I'm gonna kick this party off by explaining the name of my blog. It sounds sort of goofy, I know, but when I say that "this isn't it," I mean it. This. This blog. This life. This everything here on our planet. This isn't it. None of it is.

As a Christian, I've given up my life for my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. And in turn, He has saved my soul from Satan's grasp. I know there are times when I don't act as grateful, nor as loving as I should since I've been given this great Gift, but I know that no matter what happens, God loves me. Through thick and through thin, He's going to be there. And after I stray, every time I come back to Him as a shameful child, and He always takes me back with loving arms.

Knowing this, I can proudly say that I am saved via Grace through faith and I know that there is another life waiting for me after this earthly one. One that will be eternally spent with my God. All because I know that "this isn't it."



Oh, one more thing. A friend of mine pointed out how funny she finds the title of my blog. And I agree. :)
