Jo's New Life--Blog Now or Blog Never

I guess it's --Blog Now!

My name is Jo Johnson. I am 75 years old according to the calendar. Inside my head, I'm 45. I've been married to Jerry for 54 years and have known him for 59. Yep, we met when I was 15. He was only 17. And it's been a good life for me. But long about when I was 40-ish, I became a Christian. As I wasn't raised in knowing about church, I didn't know much about being a Christian, so my life has been a long learning process. I don't have a date for becoming a Christian and I don't have strong ideas about what a Christian is, but I have strong ideas about God and His Son. He is way up at the top of my list of Good Things to have.

Not being the right type to be a pastor, and not having much success as a writer, but having a real need to express myself, especially about the One who loves me, I think blogging might be just the right thing. So, this is my first attempt at a blog. And I'll leave it up to God if it will be read by anybody.

So until tomorrow or until God says, "Speak!" signed Jo
