The 100th Blog…

Tuesday, January 8th, 2008

My very first blogged was posted 7 months ago to the day (June 7, 2007) and this is officially my 100th blog entry on the Journeyman Journal!! When I started, I had the following in mind:

My intent is for the Journeyman Journalto be a repository of random thoughts and ideas–a place for me to share what God is doing in my life and have a place to sharpen the often wild and crazy ideas the Spirit lays on me. This is my place to get out the random thoughts so that I can come back to them and formalize them. Often the topics will focus on the spiritual journey, but that won’t be the sole focus–there is always time to discuss the more mundane (but still exciting) aspects of life such as the Broncos, the news of the world, and life in general. After all, God created them and has us on the journey in the midst of it all.

By and large, I think I have accomplished the goal so far…and it’s been fun! I’m still a hack trying to find my way, but this has certainly been a good tool for me (not sure how many are actually reading and/or getting anything out of it, but it serves my purpose).

By way of reflection, and in chronological order, here are my own personal Top 10 Posts from the first 99 Blogs (your mileage may vary):

  5. Pennies Should be Outlawed- September 19th
