Blogs (originating from the term “web log” according to
Raab, 2016) are kind of modern-day journals more public and less personal than the
more traditional diaries, and may not necessarily be regular as daily, weekly
or monthly. Ours started 10 years ago, mostly as our way to update friends and
family as I was to embark on graduate school in another country. It has now evolved
to be more of a memoir our kids may be interested to read in the future; thanksgiving
accounts of some sort; a collage of events with some personal analysis; some
scribbling on topics we feel passionately about; some merely a way of thinking
out loud or de-stressing; really, whatever goes. Ten years at it and I could
say, it can be downright therapeutic.

“Gracefaithwalk.blogspot.com” blog turns 10
The blog name started as http://daijoubu_desu.blogspot.com but
we changed it to gracefaithwalk.blogspot.com. This is to acknowledge that our
journey on this earth is all a product of God’s plan and sovereignty, and tons
and tons of unmerited favors from our creator God. At the same time, being a sinner
– forgiven but not immune to sin, and living in a fallen world where challenges,
problems and struggles are part of reality, it is mostly a walk of faith in the
person and works of our Redeemer Jesus Christ through the guidance and
indwelling of the Holy Ghost.
As we try to kunwari
remember how time flies as it is now the 10th year since the first
post in this blog, we (I and my husband) thank our family, closest friends, friends, churchmates,
past churchmates, FB friends, acquaintances who continue to journey with us.
Our wish at this point is that this blog may serve to encourage readers to be
more reflective and grateful of the daily occurrences in their lives, and see how
blessed one can be even in the most trivial of all events, in the loneliest of
all moments, or in the grandest of all accomplishments. We hope this blog will remind
us continually of the perspective that life is transient on this earth, but there
is also the great hope of a life eternal.
