The Power of Blogs.

Blogs seem to be super popular at this moment in time. And I'm not sure if the fact that I have entered the blogging the community that it feels like everyone's blogging or if everyone actually blogging...either way, I love it and what is coming out of it. It gives me peace and accountability to write, but I also get a huge amount of inspiration and peace to read what other bloggers have to say. It seems like other people have the ability to write exactly what I need to read at any given moment. Blogs have so much power in today's technologically savvy world and it's so incredible to see how people are really embracing that power for the great purpose of encouragement. 

One of my current favorite blogs is that of this awesome girl named Dayna (check out her blog here!). Now I don't know much about Dayna, I've never met her and all I really know is that she's a high school senior like me that got denied from University of Florida (her dream school), just like me. She started following me on Twitter - how and why I have no clue - a week or two before UF decisions came out. I have to admit, I thought it was kind of weird at first but I'm pretty open to randomness like that because you never know what God intends it to turn into. After we were both denied from UF it became clear why this randomness occurred: we had the ability to find encouragement in how each other was dealing with this awful news. Of course I can only speak for myself, but being able to watch someone who was going through exactly what I was made it a little bit easier. I really suggest to check out her blog and the awesome things that she has to say about a relationship with the Lord and life in general, it's some pretty great stuff! 

I will forever respect the power that blogs have and the words that the Lord puts in me to type. It will forever amaze how much of an impact a few simple words on an internet page can have on me personally and others all around the world. Keep going bloggers - you are doing some really awesome things!

P.S. Dayna - thanks so much for the inspiration in today's post! I feel like if we ever met we could be really good friends. Haha hope that doesn't sound too weird...
