Well this is embarassing
Hi, my name is Mark Field I’m a Child of God, I’m a husband and father to four children (7,9,11 and 11 yrs old), I’m a timber frame erector and carpenter and I’m 48 yrs old.
I don’t need to write CV’s in my trade so its a bit weird writing an about me page. I guess I could go one of two ways. I could go down the I am a child of God (Gal 4:7), I am fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), I was created with a purpose (Romans 8:28) route, or.
I am just an ordinary bloke, I’m not sure why God want’s me to write a blog, I don’t feel that I have anything that impressive to say. Honestly I am scared that in doing this I will show just how little I do know.
As I’m writing this I just realised that the fear of failure in my mind about this blog is really funny, because I don’t actually know what plans, goals purposes God has for this blog, so how would I know what success or failure would look like. Just another lesson to not over think it (and get stuck), but to be obedient when he calls you to move, comfortable or not.
So I guess I live in both places, I am perfect and planned but also weak and fearful. But I don’t desire this blog to be about me, but about the God who is guiding us through our lives (whether we are listening or not), the God who created us perfectly for the purpose he has for us (whether we can see it or not), and the God who created heaven and earth. I pray that this Blog would help us all to support one another as we try to be the version that God created us to be.
Thanks Mark
