Writing the Mundane

I am so out of practice from blog writing.

And a Saturday post? That was so not my thing in my prior blogging days. Maybe Saturday posts will be my new thing? My signature posting day - just like a signature perfume!

I have nothing important to say and nothing of real interest to write about. Life today is looking pretty mundane.

However, I prayed a prayer this morning that grabbed me...

"God of action, speak to my heart so that I can be a witness to your love for others."

I feel convicted that this pull on my heart to get back to writing is God "speaking to my heart".

So, I will write. I will write the mundane because maybe that is what I am called to share. I am not a fashion expertise nor a foodie. I am not a house designer. I am not well versed in the Bible or in politics. I am not a spouse, parent or friend full of wisdom to share. I am not a fitness buff or a diet expert. And, I am not an educated writer.

I am just me. Just Kari.

So, although I am not an expertise in anything special, I am many things.

I am a lover of clothes and products.

Recent Loft purchases - the jacket is soft and has pockets! 

I am a lover of food. Especially sweets.

Cookies on display are delicious to look at and good to eat!

I am fond of a pretty house.

My simple house is my castle.

I am in love with my God and His written Word.

I am currently attending Community Bible Study - Love it!

I am becoming more and more interested in politics - the election year drama - oh my goodness!

No words needed.

I am a spouse, a parent and a friend. I love my roles as such.

A rare sharing of my family.

A new Texas, Bible study friend.

I am committed to a healthy life style which involves daily exercise and a diet that is mostly in favor of good food and drink choices. I am committed to living healthily so that I can enjoy splurges and sanity.

Have you discovered Sumo oranges? You should!

My morning walk today! An awesome time to think and listen for God's whispers to me.

And, I am a writer because I write.

My BFF - without her I would be a mess.
She holds so much information for me.
I don't normally speak about my computer as a gender.  That would be weird.

"God of action, speak to my heart so that I can be a witness to your love for others."

My prayer for this blog is that it can become a place for me to speak my heart without worry of judgement so that through my mundaneness, through the things that I AM, I can be a witness of God's love for me which is the very same love that He has for everyone.

If I am able to take the pressure off of myself, the pressure of sounding shallow or less than brilliant, and allow this blog, "And Now They Call Me Ma'am", to be a place to have fun and let God's light and blessings shine, then maybe, just maybe...
