FIVE YEARS LATER…INSIGHT TO BLOG



   22nd April 2016
I hope to put into good record of what God inspires me in my heart. First, to help me appreciate God’s presence and work in my life daily. Second, to grow my writing skills. Third, as a legacy on earth after my life is over since have been encouraged by reading many books of men and women who have gone before us to our God. To the theologians like my man Moses and others who may come across my writings, while I really appreciate and am delighted by the importance of understanding the Bible passages in their context I may not do expository justice to the passages since am writing more out of my heart and my daily life experience with my God.

The idea to begin this blog was put in my heart on 19th April 2016. Though I wrote my first and only blog on 19th September 2012 at a Hald Christian international school in Mandal, Norway. We were helped to create a blog which we were expected to post our cross cultural experiences. Unfortunately I tried writing thereafter but I was not able though most of my class mates did write. I am however grateful since 4 years later I feel inspired to begin to blog. I hope this will go a long way to become a hobby, skill and discipline to cultivate and grow. Thank you may very good teachers at Hald for creating this awareness.

On 19th April 2016, I was travelling to visit my grandpa at Embu hospital after undergoing an eye surgery. That morning I had a wonderful 1 hour devotions between 5:10-6:10 am. I was reminded of the importance of spending some time in silence after praying and reading the Bible to allow God speak to me. After I felt the urge to blog, noted on my phone the areas I felt I should begin writing. One day later, when I was supposed to start editing my thesis I did not feel like and I decided to begin typing on the computer before I could create a blog.
