Dear Friends,
I have decided to create a blog as a better way to stay in touch with with those of you who have become friends on Facebook. A blog gives us all more room to talk, share thoughts, respond to my thoughts or others as postings continues. I would like to think that this may be a more thoughtful conversation, but humor is still appreciated. As we cannot copy and paste much into a blog, let's just share our own ideas. If you wish to ask me something that is more private, you may still use my address-- vjdeneen@gmail.com. Otherwise, meet me here for updates, ideas, and where I am being led by God. The title of my blog is "Against the Tide" because I am also striving and searching to make my life and thoughts go against the tide of the world and with the path of God. Still any topic can be thrown out for discussion. Let's be willing to learn from our own mistakes and not pretend we are perfect.

My url or way to find the blog is: http://jdagainstthetide.blogspot@blogspot.com

I look forward to this forum for serious and light conversation.
JD
