To me, blogs are a great way to compile, store, reference, and share information, so I put a lot of things into blogs. I don't try to make the blogs look pretty, and I don't try to attract readers to my blogs.
However, a few years ago I felt impressed to start a website (www.powerofmoms.com), and now I feel impressed to keep a blog going with it, but I find myself in a bit of a quandary.
As I look through the "blog world," I feel overwhelmed by the huge task of "going big." I just have no desire to try to compete for attention out there. But last night, as I went to bed feeling somewhat discouraged, I opened my scriptures and saw a few verses I previously marked in Nehemiah (of the Old Testament).
"Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me.... Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work.... The God of heaven, he will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build" (from verses 18 and 20 of Nehemiah 2).
I have no idea how big The Power of Moms will get, and I do not know if this is simply a path to other projects that I am supposed to do, but I do know that the Lord wants me (and all the good, strong mothers of the world) to arise and build.
Those are two new words going up on my vision board today.
