January 8th, first blog entry

I've finally taken the plunge and started The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. My friend, Karey, described it as a "life-changing" book, and I must say that so far I agree with her. Today I am on day 6 of the journey. I am going to try to keep reminding myself that this world is not my home. My life on earth is a temporary assignment, and I was created to serve my Lord! When I die, I will not leave "home," I will be going home to be with my creator.
