Well…I’m not an official blogger but sometimes I feel the need to speak or write very much like the disciples cheered and praised aloud, for if they had kept quiet, the stones would have cried out. (Luke 19) Not to compare myself to a disciple or to Jesus, just to state that I seem to sense an urgency to speak or write at times. Maybe it’s just an outlet, a personal learning tool, or self-expression. Maybe sometimes we all just have a need to be heard. (More on that in a later post.)

As for the name “Mysteriesofgrace…”  Sounds mysterious. 🙂  There are so many references to mysteries and revelations in scripture. My two primary influences came from Matthew 13 where Jesus explained to his disciples why he taught in parables and from multiple conversations in the book of Job. If you ask my kids, they may also confess that the name may have a loose connection with a particular episode of SpongeBob where he was deciding on a name for his seahorse and the conversation went something like “Mystery…Grace…Majesty…Debbie.”

The “Hello world” greeting may be a bit of an exaggeration. Maybe “hello computer and a few scattered friends” may be more appropriate. At any rate, let’s get started…
