Like many, I felt called to blog. It was actually my husband, Terry, who first introduced me to blogging less than 1½ years ago. Interestingly, he was led to an article about a blogger, even though he never followed blogs. He felt that blogging might be something I’d be interested in doing. And he was right.
Blogging is the perfect fit for me and makes use of some of my main talents and interests, which are writing, teaching and parenting (which I write about regularly), doing research (I love researching children’s activities and parenting ideas online for my blogs), and encouraging others (which I do both through Living Montessori Now and Raising Figure Skaters).
Even though my writing fits who I am, I think I’m really writing for God … writing because God wanted me to. And that makes writing a bit different … gives me a more serious approach to my writing. Am I really writing what God wants? What does blogging for God mean to me?

Thanks, Shannon – what a sweet thing to say! Of course, I think God drafts us all for one thing or another! Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
The Bible teaches that God gives each one of us special gifts to serve Him. Your focus now is reaching out to others through your blog. What a privilege and blessing to have that calling!
We have the same focus at our blog as we believe that parenting is a ministry that the Lord has ordained. It’s an awesome responsibility.
Prov. 22:6
Thanks for your kind comment, Linda! I can see that you have the same focus at your blog – and you do a wonderful job of encouraging parents! 🙂
Blogging allows us to have a voice and a sphere of influence which we can use to reach others and bring glory to God. You most definitely have the right focus.
Thanks so much for your kind comment, Trudy! You definitely have the right focus, too! 🙂
