Living Life Between the Trees

New Name, New Purpose, New Year: A Blogging Story

  

You may have noticed that "Honey From the Hive" has changed to "Living Life Between the Trees".  I'm excited about this change for a number of reasons.  The main reason is that I've re-discovered the worth of blogging and have come to terms with my limitations and purposes for spending my time here at HSB.  Here is my new blog profile statement:

In the beginning there was a tree.

The Tree of Life.

When sin entered the world, we no longer had access to that tree.

We waited for another tree.

The Cross.

Jesus, as the perfect sacrifice for our sins once again gives us access to the Tree of Life.

But we have to wait.

Wait for Heaven.

Until then, we live life between the trees.

 

It has been a very uphill battle, in that regard, this year.  Many times I felt like I was beginning to despise the computer and blogland.  Many times I hungered for the input of the friends I've made online.  It seems as I've journeyed through all of life this year, I've "taken it out" on my blog.  Not it's fault! 

I'm embarrassed and humbled by my errors in taking my blog both too seriously, and not seriously enough. As in all things, I'm slowly learning about moderation, patience and my worth in the eyes of my King. 

The fact is, I've missed what I started here.  I've missed the sharing and growing, while taking on a role both perceived and not justified.   Here is where you are either shaking your head in agreement, or in total confusion!!  Ha!  You're not alone!  HeeHee!  Let's just say, I hope to re-claim some ground in pursuit of recording our homeschool journeys.  The biggest difference now from when I began in September of 2005 is that now I have the added purpose of growing in the once neglected area of homemaker/caretaker.

I hope you enjoy this new journey with me!
