Blogging Your Way to God: Prayer Blogs

There are countless blogs on the internet:. blogs for gossip and blog for humor; there are blogs for making money and blogs for taking money; there are even blogs about blogs. However, how many blogs journey into the realm of the spirit? How many people venture to share with others a glimpse into their own spiritual life through their own online blog? How many blogs actually let you peek into the personal conversations that take place between the blogger and God?

This article is an attempt to encourage others to try using free blogs online as a means for conversing with God. I know you may not want to include in your blog the deepest, most personal jottings; but I would like to see more prayer blogs online. More blogs like this online would manifest that there is still moral people out there on the internet.

I know there are many websites about churches and many blogsites that quote the Bible. These are all good and necessary. I would, however, like to see more blogs where writers allow others to see their own personal talks with God.

I, myself, started my personal prayer blog last year. I have found that blogging in this fashion has brought me closer to Jesus. I don't share my secret thoughts; but, do share those which effect others I come in contact with. My blog is called: "Day to day with Jesus" and can be found at http://littlefranciscan.blogspot.com

I put a link to my blog on my personal webpage; but, if you want to keep your blog personal and simply for yourself; don't tell anyone about it. I think, however, sharing with others can help others start a relationship with God. It will show others that Prayer doesn't have to be a formal set of prayers; althought there is a place and time for such prayer as well. If you are a child of God, why not help others on their journey to God; and what better way to come to God then prayer?
