"In the beginning was the Word...," the famous opening line of the Apostle John's Gospel, spoke of what was in existence when time began, the Word, ὁ λόγος. Although the Word was in existence when time began, the "word" of this blog comes long after the beginning of time. Still, though, I view these two similarly; the beginning of this blog is sort of the beginning of time, and what words I may have I have probably had for some time. I am no prophet, and do not pretend to be the recipient of any new divine revelation, so whatever "word" I may speak into the void of the blogosphere is, at a very high probability, a word from elsewhere, a word already spoken or thought of by someone else, most likely God.
Unlike God, however, I have no real functional design for this blog. Truth be told, I read a Friend's blog and played copy-cat. But I suppose what I'd like to do is catalog meditations of Scripture or lessons learned through life as I continue in my training for ministry.
Unlike most of the projects I have begun in this life have ended due to lack of interest. I hope that is not the case with this, that this blog is not shrunk and killed off by lack of interest, but in the words of Shakespeare, "bears it out even to the edge of doom." Okay, maybe not doom, but you get the idea.
Let's talk about something real, shall we?
