My blog

For my  few friends and family who will read this, stop laughing...
I know I said I would never blog...I mean, are there really any other people who want to read my commentary on life anyway?  Well, maybe not.  So why the blog?  Here's why...
I feel compelled, more and more each day, to build up my brothers and sisters in Christ in this world that continually tears us down.  The blog title "E429" comes from Ephesians 4:29, and was something my college friends and I would say to each other anytime we would be tempted to say things that would be hurtful or damaging...kind of like your mother's "If you can't say anything good,don't say anything at all." So this may be more like a journal for me, and no one else will read it, but if you do, you have my commitment that my posts will be intended to encourage and to "benefit those who listen".  There will be book reviews, because I love to read.  There will be stories about my children, because they teach me even more than my books.  And above all, I will attempt to search for Truth and Wisdom as I unpack what the Holy Spirit reveals through God's Word and life experiences.
