New Beginnings

Tired of the 'magazine front' Facebook showed of other's lives, the: Amanda 'Johnson' Free account has been deleted. Funny how I feel as if I'm admitting to the killing of my other identity!

Because what was there could never reflect the complete self, frustration of my inability to communicate, or even perhaps the inappropriateness (or indecency) and self-focus it allowed when divulging, seemed to outweigh the benefits. Not to mention, it was far too easy to wrap-up in envy of others' vacations, appearance and lifestyles. None of the images that induced such feelings even reflected that person's feelings or spiritual well-being wholly, though they did in fact present good indications of their current state. That, I have to admit, was helpful at times.

The temptations to procrastinate with FB to avoid uninteresting chores and motherly duties were strong too. So, the hope here is that the draw of figuring out the latest blogging world features will be less immediately interesting and I can be more diligent in my service to the Lord through His blessings and given responsibilities.

So, look for updates. Send emails when you have questions and by all means, keep us updated on your lives! I realize traffic here will never be heavy as it was in other venues, but it will surely encourage a more proactive relationship with each of you by me. God bless you all as you walk with Him, reflect Him, and love Him through your service and sacrifice.
