I was listening to the radio one night and it challenged the listener to think. What has God done for me this past week?
I was at a convention in Puerto Rico recently and one of the topics discussed was networking. Whether in a professional sense or not, the point put on the table was to keep in touch with your "contacts" at least once a month.
One day, I got a feeling to start this blog. The reasons behind it are, in a sense, a combination of the above ideas. Since becoming a Christian Easter weekend, I realize (or believe) that God is responsible for a load of things that I didn't/haven't/wouldn't give Him credit for. One HUGE thing I have to thank Him for is the act of providing me with a number of people in the right moment and at the right time.
(HINT HINT: That would be ALL you guys!!!)
I am fully aware that I didn't meet you guys by accident. This was planned and the fact that the plan was played out as intended is simply remarkable. I believe that He used every single one of you in some way or another to help shape me into the person that I am today, and for that I couldn't be more grateful. PTL....
Saying that, I have been very, very awful with keeping in contact with everyone. I felt very convicted of this at the convention and it has been nagging at me since then. One of the big reasons for even doing this blog was so that I could provide a constant contact with my friends, giving you insight into what I am up to. So, I promise to keep better contact through this blog among other ways.
SO: to answer the radio, what has He done for me this week? or this summer?
God has blessed me so much with the warmth and encouraging understanding by everyone that I have talked to about my recent change. I thought I would have such a hard time trying to tell people in the North that I had become a Christian. I, however, have been blessed to realize that everyone so far has been completely accepting and (in some cases) Christians themselves. I can't fully express how joyful and encouraged and blessed I feel because of this.
And with that said, for those reading this for the first time, Welcome to Untitled, the official blog of me, Robby Veronesi.
