40-Day Journey to Begin!

September 29, 2011 by Leah Stirewalt 3 Comments

If you’ve been following my blog since prior to my husband’s death in May, then you might recall that I embarked on a 40-day blog writing journey a few times in the past. As difficult as writing 40 consecutive days was at times, it was always a highlight of my days. And each time I took on this challenge, it never failed to prove transformational in my life (just like any instance of 40 in the Bible – always transformational).

I say all that to say…I’m ready to launch another 40-day blogging journey! After enduring those first days following the tragedy of my husband’s suicide in early May, I never thought I’d be at this place again, but I’m ready, and I’d love to have you join me on this journey.

This time around might be a little different, in some respects, because I’m hoping that I can introduce a weekly video blog (or vlog, as it is more commonly known). I still plan to write – as that is my true passion, but I also want you to be able hear my heart as spoken from my voice, at times too – rather than always having to decipher it through my written words. So, bear with me on that one. It might take me a few days to get going on it, but I do hope to make it a weekly addition during this 40-day journey.

I have some other little surprises in store, so I pray that you’ll join me on this journey. Blog friends (new and old), you bless me more than you realize. I only pray that I can return the blessing through some of my posts.

So, when am I going to begin this journey? THIS coming Saturday, October 1! I know blog readership is typically low on weekends, but I encourage you to stop by on Saturday when you have a free moment, because I’m beginning this journey with a giveaway! You have blessed me so much in the last 5 months, that I want to return the blessing.

Can’t wait to take this journey with you! See you Saturday!

Meet Leah

Leah StirewaltI became "twice widowed" when my beloved prince, Joel, went to his Heavenly home after a brief and sudden illness on February 12, 2017. I’m in a place of shock and devastation, but I intend to use this format to journal my second widow journey, much like I did my first. It’s my open journal, my electronic oasis, and it’s often the place I find true healing as I allow myself to “come clean” with my feelings. Read More...
