"Late"





Hi.  If you've just arrived, you're late.  Journey66 was my one-year commitment to post my own journaling in response to time with God's Word so as to encourage you to journal yourself.  That commitment met, I'm going a slightly different direction in my own devotional time this year.  In the meantime, I'm not sure what I'll do with this blog.  I may miss it more than I know and come right back.  I may miss it not at all or use the space to post other items of interest.  Most likely, it'll sit here a bit at least until I get caught up on some other things. 

Let the record show--I've enjoyed the process deeply.  Not just my own journaling, but equally the interaction we've enjoyed around the Word of God.  If the stats are accurate, this blog was viewed over 7,000 times last year--small potatoes for a blog, but amazing to me.  Even more startling, the blog's been accessed by people all over the United States, much of Europe, and even parts of Asia!  Hard to believe for a fellow sitting at a laptop in a small Kansas village.

God's Word is, indeed, "living and active.  Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart (Hebrews 4:12 NIV).  So, of course, I encourage you to maintain daily intimacy with God and His Word. 

All of last year's posts remain archived here.  You can access them using the links under "Blog Archive" on the bottom half of the left-hand column.  Until we meet again (and yes, of course, even after that), may God richly bless you!
