Wow, More Than A Month Went By!
It has been a long time since I have blogged, after not missing very many days for the first 6 months of the year. The vast majority of my blogs have been my personal reflections on scripture, done in the evening after my boy Josiah, now almost 2, would go to bed.
Two things have changed since I began the regime. The first is that Josiah's sleeping patterns have changed and to sneak away to write this is taking time away from him Secondly, on my vacation I had the sense that God wanted me to invest my time in people, not in structure or programming unless it directly served people. It is hard for me to evaluate how many people were encouraged by this blogsite, particulalry in light of the fact that I had often written both the devotional and the blog! I suspect I might have been fairly repetitious.
I am still in the process of trying to refine what I need to do, what would be good to do, and what can be dropped. In the mean time, I will try to use this to post times for events at American Canyon Baptist Church and to do updates on whats going on in the life of the church. I would appreciate any feedback about the nature or direction of the blog either here, by email to matthewreal@yahoo.com or in person. Thanks for reading here and I know the fact that I am supported by many of you in prayer.
