Quotations: Wrapped Up in Yourself
Farewell
For over 11 years, Bloom! has existed to spur you on in your
journey towards Biblical womanhood. What
started as a big dream in the hearts of three teen girls, turned into an
international print magazine and then later turned into a thriving blog. Our heart has been to go beyond the fluff and
dig deep into God’s Word and into how to practically apply that to our daily
lives. If any good has come out of
Bloom!, we know it is because God is the one who waters the seeds we plant (1 Cor. 3:7).
This journey of magazine and blog has spanned for over a decade and what a thrilling and beautiful one it has been.God has deepened and widened our worldview.He has given us a deeper understanding of His ways.He’s brought me (Joanna) through some really hard times and pushed me to write despite the pain.He’s shown me that although I am nowhere near perfect, He can still use me anyway.
One thing He’s been teaching me recently is that sometimes, some chapters must come to an end.Don’t get me wrong.B…

ReplyDeleteYes, I like the actual message of the quote, but it's not well worded at all.
Frankly, I just want to be honest. I want to make sure "Bloom" doesn't become "Gloom", or, worse, "Doom". Sorry if I am like a party pooper this week. Maybe next week will be better.
Overall, however, Bloom is very helpful.
Hey Alex,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your honest comments.
The whole point of the quote is to simply provide something to make you think and examine your walk with the Lord. It's definitely not about "doom" or "gloom".
And for sure, no worries about Bloom! becoming "Gloom" or "Doom".
No way.
We'll always, always, always be about God's love to us, wretched sinners who have been saved by God's grace through faith.
And that sure is worth celebrating this Christmas!
Just wanted to pop in and say, Merry Christmas all! And I'm positive 'Bloom' will never be 'Gloom', haha. Every post causes me to pause and reflect, and lifts my heart on high. And that's the ultimate!
