Wanna be a moon

Well I am new to blogging- or at least new this go around.
I remember back in high school (almost 10 years ago) with the xanga, and all the silly blogs then.
This time I am doing this for me. I don't know if anyone will read this, or if it will simply be a place that I can express- me...
This past Saturday a friend asked if we could use my house to host an (in)courage meeting, I really did not know what this was, but since I am a "yes person" of course I said yes. This is a website where ladies from the blogging community come out from behind the computer screen, and meet in person. It was neat to be able to just sit & talk to a group of women. Reminded me how important fellowship/friendship is.
After hearing some of the stories, I realized blogging might be something to look back into.
So that's how I am here now. . .
I am reading Nehemiah a heart that can break by Kelly Minter, and we just finished Nehemiah 9 (this is the part that I normally do not read, or hear about. Most people know about the wall that Nehemiah bulit, but there is more to the story. ) Anyways, Nehemiah 9 is a prayer that really got me thinking.
This is my prayer.
God, I praise you! 
You are real & moving. 
Take EVERY part of my life, and do with it what you wish. 
I want to be a star moon for you. 
I think of the moon and how by itself, it would give no light. 
It is just a rock. 
Take my useless rock, and make it something
Something like a moon.
