Since starting this blog, I've learned a lot of things.
1. People enjoy random things
2. People enjoy learning about other people
3. Drama exists even on the internet.
4. You don't have to meet a person to be best friends
5. Obsessions can be good things
6. God uses Blogger to spread His love and joy.
But most importantly, I've learned what it's like to have true friends. Or, as I like to call them: soul sisters. You know, the girls who love the same music you do; who crush on the same celebrities you do. The girls you feel like you've known all your life; the girls who leave sweet comments and write uplifting posts. The girls you have a crazy connection with, even if you're totally different people. And, especially: the girls who love Jesus as much as you do.
These are the types of girls I've met through blogging. And even though I haven't met any of you, I feel like you're my sisters.....sisters in Christ, that is. ;)
I've always wanted to organize a big, huge, over-the-top party for all you beautiful girls. We would come together and talk, laugh, sing, and worship God. We'd take lots of photos and discuss all sorts of different things. We'd actually get to meet our fellow bloggers and take some inspiration from it all.
Now, I'm sure some of you are saying, "Sure, that sounds wonderful....but it's just too good to come true."
well, I let you in on a little secret: it isn't.
See, in my mind, what I just wrote above is what Heaven is going to be all about! Fellowshipping with other Christians, praising the Lord with them, and spending all of eternity getting to know them. Just think: we're going to have forever and ever and ever to talk to each other, relate experiences, and become best friends.
So yeah.....that's what keeps me going when I feel like most of my Christian friends live far away: we're gonna have all of eternity to be together. And that, to me, is the best thing about blogging.

Yesss! I can not wait for the day that all us girls will be able to join together in fellowship.. praising our Jesus right at His feet! Even though we can't do that in a way Iiterally here on earth I have a feeling it will be oh soo much more precious when we are all in heaven together someday.
Could Jesus get any better(:?
I exactly know what you mean.
There are so many nice people on blogger and It's such a wonderful feeling to know that there is a whole big world out there and that you're not stuck in this place forever.
They made me strong, they make me believe in my dreams and that's why I love them! Not because some of them are my followers!
DUDE I WAS TOTALLY JUST TALKING ABOUT THE EXACT SAME THING TODAY!!!
Great post :))
