Greetings in the name of the Lord. This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. I want to apologize to any readers (and to myself). Think of this as a life-application to the first topic of this blog. Taking the first step after a setback.
I am not one for making excuses, but I would like to share some of the reasons for the delay in the blog for this month. I could almost write a country song from this year alone. Sadly, I had several events that shift some time prioritization, hence the delay in writing this blog. I was struggling with my school work, as I found it difficult to break the bad habits of a lifetime of English writing. So I had to work extra hard on my English class which caused more effort in my other course, so most of my free time was school. There is also a Youth fundraiser going on for the month of October and my wife and I have been spending a good portion of our time helping with that. Finally, the most heart-breaking reason is that after 12 great years we had to make a tough decision to euthanize our dog, Toby. His health was declining, but then took a rapid change for the worse and we could not allow him to suffer.
I will do an entry on this in more detail because this was a lot more painful than I expected to be and I am still in the healing process.
Again, I apologize for the lack of content this month. I will pick up with the forgiveness portion of the Lord's prayer later this week.
Thank you and God bless,
