I think deep down inside me there is a writer aching to get out. I have started many books and yet none are complete. I hope that keeping a blog will inspire me to finish a book or two. I lack the confidence that I could actually write something worth reading. I have to overcome my fears and "just go for it". Yah, that's so not who I am. So the question may be: "Who am I?" I hope this blog will give me insight to who I am and who I was meant to be.
Why did I call my blog "Come Home Running"? That's an easy one to answer. It's a song I heard at church. It was one of the first times I went to church by my own choosing. The preacher spoke of how God loves us and how He wants us to love Him. God always has a home for us. I have been looking for a home for all of my life. I grew up in a house, a very nice house in fact, but there was something missing. I got married and we moved into our own house, well houses, and not one felt like home. We moved across the country and rented a very nice house, but again, it wasn't home. This baffled me, I had a loving husband, two beautiful children, a car, all the "stuff" anyone could need and there was still something missing. I discovered it was God. Sounds silly I know, but it's true. He can make a house feel like a home. He gave me peace about so much in my life. When that happened, I finally felt like I had a home. And home is where my story begins...
