little lessons - recognize the back of someone's head

So, I've spent some serious time trying to find a great angle for my blog. What is going to keep people coming back to my blog to figure out what it going on? I'm still trying to figure it out but I do know that I love to learn and love when God gives me little life lessons.

One lesson I learned this weekend was the importance of the back of someone's head. (What?!!) I know it sounds weird but hang with me. I was fortunate enough this weekend to co-host a baby shower for Melodie and her new beautiful baby Holden. It was so wonderful to be part of such a wonderful celebration. At the baby shower, I was sharing my blog dilemma when I decided that I would take pictures of the back of people's heads, post them on my blog and then have people guess who's head it was (I know, weird, but again, hang with me). So I was all ready to post up my pictures when it God sent a little lesson to me. It occurred to me that recognizing the back of someone's head could help you know who to follow. So I share with you the back of heads of some new friends and some old friends.

Everyone's Got a Blog But Me...

Alicia Brown, living in Dallas and learning. Everyday. My life has changed so much over the last 2 years. After graduate school, I took, what I thought was, the job of a lifetime. I moved 2000 miles away. Granted, I learned so much and have that great resume booster, but I feel I lost a part of who I was. I have since moved back to Texas and daily God is renewing me, repairing me and restoring me.
He restored Christian fellowship. The hardest part of my pilgrimage was that I had no church to call home. My first weekend back to Texas I went to my beloved Fellowship Church and tears streamed down my face, with reckless abandon. I felt that the last 2 years were spilling down my cheeks. I couldn't praise God enough. I felt I was home. I was surrounded by a thousand or so people all singing praise to the same God. I felt far from Him the last 2 years but felt Him holding me so closely. Each weekend I get so excited to go to church. I want to be there every day. I don't just want to soak in it I want to drown in the God's grace and His mighty plan. He brought me home.
