It may seem slightly silly, especially as I am publishing this on the www (world wide web - note the 'world wide' part in particular), but realizing that people may actually read my ramblings is quite an amazing thought.
My last post (was it 13 days ago already?) received a record number of replies for me... two.
And suddenly, I realise that there are actually people out there who may even read what I write!!!
Sure, two may not seem like a very big number, but its bigger than one, and its a lot bigger than zero, and the fact that one of them apparently lives in another country altogether allows my mind to run free with the thoughts that, just possibly, there are thousands of people around the world, each waiting with baited breath for my next post.... or not...
I've always wanted to write, and therefore, I suppose, wanted people to read what I've written, but its still weird when they do.
Why would they bother???!!!
But, if they do, what does this mean for me, the humble blogger named 'Lark'? If I have a possible audience, then what should I say to them? What words of wisdom should spill from my mouth?
My best answer for this is that I should just continue what I've been doing: writing as I am led, when I find the time, energy (and computer) to do so.
I know I'm not the perfect example of what a Christian should be (oh no!!) and I may still be young and unsure of many things in life, but the least I can do is be real.
Jesus led by example, he let his disciples see him on his good days (teaching etc), and his bad days (pleading with God to take away his burden), in his highs and his lows. He also called us to be witnesses for him.
We are called as Christians to be the light of the world, to make a difference to the darkness.
I have no idea how bright my light is, or how many people can see it, but I know that however much it glows, God can use it.
Maybe someday a non-Christian can get something out of this...
