iona's blog

It's a journal. It's a devotional. It's a record of a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivor. It's documentation of God's activities in real time. There are good days and bad, happy times and sad... I tell it like it is. This is an unscripted walk along the meandering paths of my mind. My life has never been dull... and I've never known boredom. Read on, you'll see...

I am a happily married mother and grandmother of a large family. I've also had several careers including writer, teacher, trucker, investment and finance advisor, web master and artist. I am an ordained minister (not to the pulpit) and consider my calling to Christ's service my most important role in life.

Easy Way Out

Blogger was down when I tried to post last night. True, I could have written at one of my other blog hosts and copied it here, but I took the easy way out and made brownies instead. I didn't feel especially led to write, so I guess no harm was done... except to our waistlines.

The easy way out can't always be taken. Some things require more thought and dedication. Like finding a CHURCH HOME.

This morning, I went back to the Community church I had visited two weeks ago. I didn't go last week because I was sick. Richard had to work so missed an excellent Sunday School lesson as well as a thought provoking sermon. We are praying for guidance as to where the Lord would have us locate in a church family. As I mentioned before, this is a young church with mostly young members and staff. That's cool with us... we love young folks.

I am anxious for Richard to get to know the church better and for both of us to visit with the Pastor and Elders or Deacons about their belief statement. I am non-denominational, but having once been led into Mormonism (before I understood they were not just another Protestant religion) I am very fussy about knowing in full what a church believes before committing myself to it. That's just part of being Spiritually responsible.

I'll keep you posted...
