As I pondered about the existence of this blog, what purpose was it given as it was created, why it should continue to live, or should I give it a timely death, the sweet Spirit brought back to my mind one of the brethren in our last conference encouraging us to keep a list of "The Hand of The Lord" in our lives. He counseled that we should write down every time we felt, saw, or experienced a "touch" of the Masters hand in our lives.
As I considered the breath of this blog, as I tried to evaluate the purpose of helping us realize a dream given to us by our loving Father, I noted that one of the greatest witnesses of His love in our mortality is the influence of Father in our daily life. Too often I do not notice His touch. Too often I am oblivious of His quiet nurturing of my growth, or lack of it, and learning experiences. Too often I dwell upon events of the day and ignore the fact that I have a Father closely involved in my life who loves me and wants me back with Him.
Thus, the life of this blog. If I couple the witnesses I have daily of His influence in my life, especially in helping me make progress toward this goal of a mission, if I am more aware of Father's presence in my life, then I will live my life more closely in accordance with His will, His wishes for me, and His direction how I can influence and serve others. This will very positively prepare us for serving Him 24-7 in the coming years, I would surmise. Thus this blog, though it was terminally ill a few hours ago will live on.
