Decisions


I have recently attended what is known as a "burn." This is a function at the Bridge Christian Fellowship that emphasizes prayer. However,  this prayer is not based upon talking to God, but listening to God. And so, within those three hours of searching for the voice of the Lord, I found it. I received the message, among others, that I was to be more open.

As an INTP, it is often very difficult to reveal myself to others. I cringe at the mere idea of sharing my emotions or thoughts. What is even worse is that I find myself all the more hesitant to share these ideas with those close to me. It is as if I am inclined to share with those I do not know rather than my friends or family simply because I know I will not have to maintain the state that I am expressing within that vulnerability.

So, with my mission to share my intellectual and emotional innards, I came to the conclusion that I had no idea how to do that.

With an open mind and a lack of knowledge, I arrived at the idea of creating a blog as a habitual outlet for my cranial workings. I religiously read a few of my friends' blogs and they seem to find freedom within the captivity of four walls of an imaginary internet page.

So here I am, writing my short story of the child-sized journey that led me here at this moment. For future reference, my posts will be at least weekly, if not increasingly often.

Peace. Love. Purity.
Isaac.
