Who Would've Thought...?

Welcome to my blog!

This blog—much like my life—is dedicated to Jesus Christ. When I think of my relationship with Him, I’m reminded of the Donnie McClurkin song, “Who Would’ve Thought.” One portion of the lyrics says, “Heard folks talk about the things you’ve done, and I would just laugh at what they say.” Then the chorus simply asks, “Who would’ve thought I’d get to know you this way?”

These lyrics describe me to a tee. You couldn’t have told me in a million years that I would have the bond that I now have with Him. Then I smile to myself when I realize He had other plans for me.

So what’s the purpose of this blog you ask? Glad you asked J !

Since my born again experience, it has become evident that this way of living (holy living) is not popular. Again I ask, "Who would've thought?" Perhaps a more accurate way of describing it, though, is misunderstood. With that being said, I hope this blog will first and foremost lead others (particularly the younger crowd) to Jesus Christ. By no means do I view this as a “ministry” or an evangelistic device to help others “come to the light”.

Instead, I’ll use the blog to share my ongoing experiences (and struggles) of being young and saved. I’ll also address some of the misunderstandings and annoying misperceptions about living "the saved life". The ultimate goal is to help others see that living for Jesus is fulfilling, peaceful, and rewarding.

Until next time, here’s the Donnie McClurkin song I mentioned. Be blessed!!
