“This is only a Test”

Some sweet friends and family have asked if I have a subscribe button. Finally, I do have subscription abilities… if you want my new posts sent to you via email. Well,  I think I do. These plugins don’t have great directions!

THIS BLOG IS ONLY A TEST OF MY NEW SUBSCRIPTION PLUGIN

For those who have asked if there was a way to “subscribe” to my blogs. I just added that convenience (or nuisance, depending on how you look at it). Please feel no pressure.

I sent an email to a handful of people, who I am pretty sure requested it, telling them I set them up. THIS IS A TEST BLOG, for those people. Please let me know if it worked! You should get an email with this blog printed in it. If you would like to get these emails, you might need to confirm it by checking the box that says “Notify me of new posts by email.” and then click the post comment button. 

And if you haven’t told me, but you would like to get an email when I post a blog, please comment below, or email me at easiew@gmail.com. In the subject line say Blog subscription, and I will add you to the list. (So far I have not been able to get a “button” on the homepage that allows people to add themselves).

There IS a safe unsubscribe offer at the bottom of every email. 😉 You aren’t hooked for life.

Soon, I hope to not be on Facebook, personally. Or to limit it tremendously — see my last post.  And the one before it about my smart phone ADDICTION. A challenge to understand YOUR possible ADDICTION is coming. I would love you to play along and let me know how it goes!

Rob and I watched a very old and horrible alien encounter movie Friday night — there is just no good, mindless TV anymore. But it was very nostalgic.

I got a glimpse of what Rob might have looked like in his plaid flannel shirt with a puffy down vest — and long curly hair. And remember when traffic lights blinked after midnight, and “snow” came on the TV about 11:00 pm, just after the national anthem played? The good ole days.

It made me think of that familiar high pitched noise, and the ominous announcement “This is only a test! In the event of an actual emergency…” It gave us all the opportunity to think of our cold war bomb shelters or earthquake and tornado plans — then it was back to Gilligan’s Island, I Dream of Jeanie, The Brady Bunch (little did I know that was a precursor to educational TV for me).

If we had that today… would there ever be an uninterrupted program?  The world is nutty…  I don’t understand it… but I feel called to more prayer and more bold sharing of my faith– and the amazing ways God shows up in my life to help me do things I never would or could alone.

Faith is personal, but certainly not private. Romans 1:12 says “That is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith, both yours and mine.”

Santorini Greece! Awesome to get rest and renewal. Now it's time to enter the messiness.

    1. Thank you, Cindy! It is so encouraging to hear that. Writing this blog is definitely out of my comfort zone and something I feel God does with me. The more of Him and less of me there is, the better the read!

    1. Thanks, Becca. You’ve been listening to my heart for a L-O-N-G time, my sister! 🙂 You are a treasure and wonderful gift to me. Love ya!
