Behold I make all things new

My blog is back?! I have some new inspiration and accountability. Hope it helps. So fingers crossed! This time around I have a few goals. Here they are. They are probably not interesting to the general reader. But please pardon me this once for boring you.

::Blogger Round 2 Goals::
  • Learn to be pithy. I suck at brief. My thoughts are all too often lost in a shit-pile of words.
  • Teach YOU new words. Pithy is sort of like intentional brevity. A person being pithy isn't being lazy they are just being very precise with their words.
  • Provoke thought. You won't always (or even, often) agree with me. But I hope you are THINKING with me.
  • Puke some Jesus. I am far to selfish with my Jesus adventures. Jesus doesn't like that either. So I'll try to puke some tasty nuggets from books or the Bible on you when I can. Oh and there are those rather mystical Jesus times too. Which often involve intense feelings or even tears. I should let you in on a few of those also.
  • Make you laugh. I am really funny. But most of my funny is 'in the moment wittiness' which isn't really pertinent here. So I might disappoint. But I'll try.
Well I want to write more. But then I would be breaking my first goal. OK. One last thing. The title of my blog is from Revelation chapter 21. Jesus utters those words in reference to the New Heaven. The Kingdom of God! Lately the idea thereof excites me so much. Thank you George MacDonald and C.S. Lewis!
