A new direction.

So i figure since I have coined this space on the internet, I'd like to start using it instead of wasting it. I'm gonna take the Live Unburdened idea and actually run with it in the original intended direction I had for it for a while and see what comes of it. So here's the plan and thoughts behind the whole idea as it is in my mind right now, of course it's subject to change as God sees fit or the readers direct my writing:

Live Unburdened, "live" as pronounced when saying "to live your life" not as in "saturday night live" is a concept that popped into my head last summer when I really began to get serious about my faith in Christ. We all carry weights, scars, burdens, baggage, guilts, sins, etc that we've picked up somewhere throughout the course of our lives, and the concept of life unburdened is, to me, directly related to how God wants us to live. Hand in hand with that, is the concept that us living our lives unburdened by the sins and the crap of this world is exactly what Christ died for. So, here we have it, an amazing God with amazing grace wants us to Live Unburdened from our sins ultimately to greater glorify Himself.

My goal for the new direction of this blog is going to be a conglomeration of meditation on things i need to be released from, things readers submit, and possibly even some of the sermons that i've formulated that I would love to deliver sometime. I got the idea for this new direction from a semi-well known organization called Postsecret which some of you may have heard about. I would absolutely LOVE to get to the point where people could send me post cards with prayer concerns, questions about faith, and all kinds of stuff to post on here for me to write about. As of now I'll ask that if you have any suggestions, questions, and etc that you send them to LifeUnburdened@gmail.com (LiveUnburdened was taken...grrr...) or hit me up on Facebook cause that'll be a lot easier.

I'll be posting my first real post sometime in the next couple of days, and I hope someone that needs to, reads it and can be helped in some way. For now, trust in Christ and Live Unburdened.
