It’s a Small World…(Joanna’s First Blog Ever!)
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010
Well, here it is… my first blog ever. There have been so many firsts in my life- hundreds!- and now this one. Time once again to enter the “modern” age. :-)
I am thinking today about how small our world has become, and how this is a good thing.
In the past few weeks, I’ve met people (through email) from all over the United States, Canada and Europe. It still amazes me that I can write a message, hit “send” and know that that person who lives thousands of miles away will receive it in just a few seconds. Wow! I don’t know if I’ll ever get over how cool that is.
And I know I’ll never get over how wondrous, miraculous and amazing it is that there is One who loves me (and you!) who is always present, always pouring out grace and kindness and help…even when all seems dark and confusing.
May we all take time today to pause for a few moments, quiet our minds and hearts and become aware that we are never alone…for there is no distance between us and God, who is near.
“I will never leave you or forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5
