I have been writing on my other blog (mygoodreport.blogspot.com) for just over a year now. Hooray! It has been a wonderful creative outlet for me and I continue to marvel that my ramblings resonate with anyone that lives outside of my head. In an effort to connect with a wider audience, I made a conscious decision to write pieces that were universal in content. During that time I have found myself at times wanting to express more precisely my feelings about my beliefs. Instead of reformatting my existing blog, I decided to create a new one to fulfill that desire.
I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Some of you might know me as a Mormon. I love my family. I love my Heavenly Father. I am eternally indebted to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is my rock and my salvation. I hope that in an effort to write things that are not only "of good report", but also "praiseworthy" that I can share more completely the things that bring me peace and joy in my life.
Here's to a praiseworthy year.
*NOTE - I have taken the titles for my blogs from the thirteenth Article of Faith. The Articles of Faith are a compilation of my church's basic doctrines and beliefs. The thirteenth, and last, Article of Faith reads -
We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul - We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Hooray! A blog that speaks of our faith and introduces it in a positive light. I also have two blogs and one is more faith oriented! I'd love it if you would follow me as well! Have a great day!
