Elder Ballard's challenge
Posted On 05/04/2008 23:04:08 by christmasvalleyfarms

I'm brand new to this blog thing and it feel really weird.  I'm trying to be obedient to Elder Ballard's counsel, and be ever learning and growing, and all, and keep my arteries from hardening, but I notice that most of you on here seem to be so young - singles, young parents, etc. - I'm a grandma for Pete's sake.  So I join LDS.net, and check out some of the blogs and links on LDS stuff.  Do most of you engage in those too?  I find it really....depressing.  Don't know how else to say it.  When I plow through all the negativity, and intellectual posturing, and pride and foolishness, I really don't know that I could add anything to the mix, and it just feels so...dark to me.  There are some LDS bloggers out there that are awesome - I feel like I'd be better off leaving it to them.  I'm curious to hear from those who might be engaging in the online missionary work scene and get some encouraging words?  Can a 50-year old jump into this?  Or should I stick to writing cookbooks with 1001 jello and shredded vegetable recipes and doing my genealogy?

Hurrah for Israel!!!!

Yes, a 50 year old can jump into this! I think it's wonderful that you got right on your computer and signed up for something, even if it makes you a little uncomfortable! We need lots of perspectives on here, thanks for joining!
