What do beauty and blogging
have in common? A great deal, I
think. Let me explain.
Just as God created each of us
individually and intricately, working
out every detail according to
His good pleasure, so He has gifted
each of us with differing abilities
and personalities. And, as these
go, so goes our blogging. We are
all so unique. Whether we are
blogging about our daily routine
or blogging our spiritual journey,
the beauty of the blogging lies
in the designed individuality of
each blogger. As an orchestra has
many differing instruments, each
producing varying sounds yet all
coming together to create beautiful
music for the hearer, so each
of us has a differing aspect to our
blogging that is distinctively ours,
yet linked together with others
who are journeying with us on the
homeschooling road. As homeschool
bloggers, we create beauty
as we show forth the glory of our
Creator through the very diverse
design of His creation portrayed in
each of our blogs.
Don’t know what to blog?
Blog about your Creator and His
creation—namely, you and your
family. Blog about the giftings He’s
blessed you with. Blog to Him and
for Him, showing forth the unique
personality He has bestowed you
with. Your blogging is beautiful
in the Eye of your Creator when
you show forth His praise. We are
reminded throughout His Word
to “remember.” Remember and
proclaim what the Lord has done
and is doing in your life. Remind
yourself and your children of the
goodness of the Lord in the land
of the living. Blog about it. Blog
about Him, and it will be beautiful
to Him.
Don’t blog very often? That’s
okay, too. Whether once a day or
once a month, blogging gives us
an occasion to express the details
of our lives to the glory of God.
Think your blog is too simple to
radiate beauty? Whether your blog
is plain and no frills or has all the
bells and whistles imaginable, it is
the content of your heart that is
beautiful in the Eye of the Creator.
Pour out your heart, and let’s make
beautiful music together … for “an
audience of One.”
