Why "Out Of The Box"?

I chose the title Out Of The Box because we are living in a time when we need to be out of the box. We need to think out of the box so that we can help our families and to help others. For me, God has placed on my heart to live and do things differently. To our family this means to try to live more simply and to prepare for what is to come.
The blog title was also chosen because we are trying to reach outside our box or comfort zone. If God has given us a skill or interest in something, we feel that we should share it with others. I am not claiming that we know all things on every subject of interest. That is far from the truth. I learn new things everyday from so many different people. I feel that if we can share what knowledge we do have then that could start others to research what interests them more in depth.
Sharing and teaching does not end with just that one person that you shared with. That person can take a skill or a little nugget of knowledge and share with others. That is one of the beautiful things about God. He places people with similar interests together so that they can teach and learn from each other.
My prayer is that if you glean something from my future posts, that not only will you use it to bless your family, that you will step out of your box to share or teach some one else so they may also bless others. God's word tells us to help others and to treat them the way we would want to be treated. So let's all step out of our boxes this week.

Have a Blessed Week
