Welcome to garretthjones!

This is my official welcome post on my new blog! A royal welcome to you. This is my attempt at passing on to you inspiration for your journey in life. (I was going to say "spiritual journey" but I think that's redundant. All of life is spiritual. And true spirituality is real life. Amen!) This is also a welcome to me to the blogosphere. I know. I know. It's about time. But make room internet. I'm finally here. 

Why another spirituality blog? Because the world needs more color. That's what I say. And I—just like you—was born to create something. My particular paintbrush happens to be a keyboard. And I simply love to write. I especially love to write about life in this beautiful Kingdom-of-God-saturated world we find ourselves in (btw, that doesn't mean there isn't more room for Heaven on Earth; it just means there's much more it than we typically realize). 

My hopes for this open journal experiment is that this would be a place that Revelation and Revolution collide...where we play with God and maybe break a few shackles of tradition along the way. We all carry a limp in life from our unique wrestle with God. We may as well add some encouragement to each other along the way. I have so much encouragement to share with you. My heart is full of joy for having seen the face of God...the most beautiful person I...have...ever...[speechless jaw drop]...Tomes can be written reflecting on the richness of our silent encounters with the Divine.
