First Post- All Glory Be to Christ

    When I was growing up, I knew a hymn entitled "All Glory be to Christ." It was sung to the tune of Auld Lang Syne, and it went like this:

"Should nothing of our efforts stand,
No legacy survive,
Unless the Lord does raise the house,
In vain its builders strive.

All glory be to Christ, our King,

All glory be to Christ!

His rule and reign we'll ever sing,

All glory be to Christ."

    I cannot tell you how many times I have prayed to the Lord about blogging and I feel increasingly that it is something He wants me to do. I enjoy writing and trying to express my ideas, and if I could do that in a way that glorifies Him, I should. 

    This verse of the hymn expresses completely my wishes for this blog. Whatever I do here is all because the Lord has enabled me to do it and it is in his plan. Unless he blesses this endeavor, I write in vain. This is partly why I choose to remain anonymous. Who I am really is not important, and I do not want readers to focus on that (kinda opposite to why most anonymous people today don't post their names). Also, if I post my name, I know that I will begin to work for myself and not for God. I ask that you honor this and do not try to find out who I am.

    The verse that this blog stands for is Revelations 4:11- "You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for You created all things, and by Your will they were created and have their being."

    Lord, I pray that whatever You choose to do with this blog, I will accept it. I pray, though, that You will use it to bless those that read it and to further Your Kingdom here on Earth. Your will be done. Amen.
