the girl in the shabby world

I have not blogged in a long time.

In fact, I don't think I've ever kept a blog updated. I do enjoy writing and creating; however, I find I am either too lazy or too paranoid about my words to keep on writing in the public world. So, if you're ever offended of bothered by these (hopefully) forthcoming words in future blogs, I am sorry.

I decided to name this new blog "tattered femininity...and a pursuit of Godly womanhood" for two reasons. First, I don't have a clean and beautiful past (If you ever discover someone who does have one, please point her my way. I would like to take lessons.). I've been broken, beaten, bruised, knocked down, stretched, stained, scared and torn - thanks to my flesh. So, technically,
I believe that makes me a tattered woman.

Secondly, I find that I struggle against the history I carry around. Most of us women can relate. I believe that if I can work to accept this history, move on and continue to pursue Godliness and Holiness in my life, the freedom I have in Jesus will be even more freeing as I discover more of His plan and His word.

Can anyone relate? Am I making sense?

So here i am. A tattered woman becoming restored daily through the freeing power of Jesus Christ.

I plan to blog about everyday things, events, recipes, my future husband, and about my own walk. I hope it inspires you, gives you some good ideas and even helps you out as you pursue your own walk with Jesus. :)
