It's a funny thing... I look at my blog posts and there is a serious lacking here.  I have many thoughts where I think, "Wow, I will write about this on my blog..." but it has been so hectic since starting seminary.  My posts are sporadic - but this is what it is.  I read blogs from some of my colleagues in seminary, and they are creative, fresh, and wonderfully written.  Maybe this has given me some reason to write more.  But, I have a paper to write, scripture passages to memorize, and I am filling in to preach for another pastor this Sunday, and have to "polish it up" so I can deliver it in a way that honors God.

So, what follows is a post I put on Facebook back in February:

Early this morning, all was quiet outside as I was taking the trash to the curb, I was amazed with many little footprints in the snow! During the day it is usually these cute bird prints, but there were raccoon, rabbit and kitty prints this morning. Much activity during the night! They all leave an impression for me, as I wonder what they were doing while we slept. I ask myself what kind of impression do I leave for others as I walk through life? What do my footprints say? 

I am going to be intentional in the way I consider these things today and in future days.
