Today, Scripture Love Blog exceeded 100,000 views! Praise be to God!
If you have ever read simply one single piece I have written on this blog, I say to you:
THANK YOU!!!!!!!
I have worked so hard writing the many pieces, which number 418 at this juncture. The fact that more people are reading writings here now after all these years has given me a surge of hope during a transition period in my life.
For the next two months, my plan is to do a posting every Wednesday. (Sometimes it could be on a different day as I am in a transition period.) The post this coming Wednesday will be on a unique subject from the last section of John chapter one. Then in the three following weeks I will be offering some insight into the wedding at Cana! I think it is interesting!
On August 25, 2008, Professor Tafoya, an adjunct professor at Colorado Christian University at the time, handed out his syllabus the first day of class. One of the requirements for the class was to do a New Testament Introduction blog. There on my first day of classes at CCU as an older student going for a second degree, I felt a feeling of apprehension and concern as he discussed that requirement. I was far behind all of the students in that class, most of whom were half my age, on the current software! For example, I still used a computer which was a "486" which I had purchased in 1994. And the only wordprocessing software I had ever used at home or at work was "WordPerfect," (which I really liked). And, seriously, up to that day in 2008, I had never heard of a "blog."
Yet it was my dream to get a ministry degree. So right after class, with all the determination I had, I swiftly went to the library. At a CCU library computer, I followed the instructions and set up the blog. Turns out, a bit into the semester, Professor Tafoya used my blog as an example before the entire class.
And once I graduated from CCU, my blog turned into a ministry for me. I enjoy writing about Jesus and the messages of the Bible. This blog was obviously the best way for me to share my writings with anyone who wanted to read them. Year after year, I spent countless hours writing, with hope that my writings would bless people. And currently, I still give pieces my all, hoping to bless people.
So I close this announcement by saying: This evening, I prayed for a special blessing for you, and for all the people currently reading Scripture Love Blog, to be experienced during our upcoming Christmas season. Quite the unusual prayer. Jesus is for real.
Thank you again.
love, Hunter
