Hello readers,
I am so excited you are here! I’ve been messing around with blogging for about a year now and think I’ve finally found a niche… well, maybe. The purpose of my blog is to help connect the Bible to everyday life.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 says that :
All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness, so that the man (or woman) of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
I’ve been a Believer for most of my life and one thing that has been brought to my attention time and time again is that often new believers state that the Bible is difficult to read and to understand, so they give up reading it all together. Another thing is that many people who say they are Christians have no idea what is actually in the Bible, also many people have no idea how the Bible actually speaks to life today. My hope is that through my writings, those who read them may come to a better understanding of the Bible and how it applies to everyday living. I also hope that those who read this blog will learn how to read and study the Bible for themselves.
For those wanting to know a little about me, the author, I have chosen to go by the name Ruby Blossom for the purpose of this blog. I am in my early 30’s, have two young boys with a third child on the way, and have been married to my wonderful husband since 2014. I am not a Bible Scholar and have no formal degree in Theology. I do have a Masters degree in Nursing and am Certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner but have chosen to fully embrace this season of being a mother of young children and to not pursue a career as an NP at this time.
Over the years I have come to grow in my love for God’s word. I will admit that being consistent in reading the Bible and talking with God has been difficult the last few years, especially during grad school and having young kids at home.However, the Lord has continued to show Himself faithful and continues to pursue me, just as He continues to pursue you.
I’m just a Daughter of God, filled with the Holy Spirit, hoping to pass on to you what I have learned over the years and am currently learning.
So come and explore God’s word with me as we tackle the challenges of everyday life and see what He has to say about our personal, cultural, and global situations.
