Well, here I go! I finally joined the blogiverse. Possibly a step that has been delayed but finally made.
I pray that the Lord guide me with His Holy Spirit and Holy Word as I begin this "Th0tful Journey" (Th0t pronounced thought) and that every letter I type may be filled with His grace.
It's kind of ironic how Lent is coming up and I made the commitment to give up social networking but I will be using my blog to record my spiritual journey from now on.
I want to give glory to my Almighty Father in Heaven, my Lord and Savior, and the Holy Spirit for being the reason I strive to live a passionate and zealous life for the Kingdom.
I want to give a holy shout out to Sofia. She has always been my inspiration since I found her blog a couple of years ago. Hey Sofia, hope you're blessed! I forever will remember you on Tuesdays and Fridays! Sorrowful Mysteries :D
Second, to my brothers in Christ, FoundNation, Carlos aka C2Six, Nick aka Dy-Verse, and unfortunately, he is no longer with us but still praying for him and miss him, Michael aka Le (Pronounced Lay). As well as the whole Catholic Rap group fam. These brothers of mine have helped me to stay inspired and stay walking strong with Christ and our Blessed Mother.

"Spit that Christ!" ~ something yelled by an unknown homeless on the corner as I waited for the light to change that will forever be with me.
Third, my big brother in Christ, David Bisono. He has also been a big influence in my spiritual journey ever since we first met through Twitter, then in person just a couple of months later and now slowly working together. I believe God is brewing up something hot for us! I love you, brother! #Creelo!!
Finally, I want to give a big thanks to all of my family, friends, acquaintances, and especially my best friend Evelin! Thank you all for always being there, praying for me, praying with me, and being that spiritual support God has provided for my journey.
Also, thank you reader for joining me on this Th0tful Journey of mine. I may not be as great as the others but I pray the Lord uses me in whichever way He desires. Pray for me as I pray for you!
And I end this post and begin my Th0tful Journey with my most favorite Bible Verse,
Dei Gratia,
Alfonso "Th0t" Pedroza
Brilliant - keep it up and you will inspire many as your friend Sofia inspired you.

Alfonso, blogging is a great tool for evangelization; indeed, His Holiness has encouraged it's use to spread Christ's love. I look forward to reading it. Also, I will make you the same offer I have done for The Crescat, who blogs at Patheos.com, which is if you wish to use any of my photographs to illustrate a post, feel free to do so, since we are a visual society (my Flickr won't allow downloads but just let me know and I will send it to you).
ReplyDeleteGreat Job A, look forward to more of this. Blessings.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you decided to blog. I am not a fan of technology however, a religious Sister gave me the suggestion on Twitter and now my blog has over 27,000 hits worldwide! God sent her because I never had any intention to write anywhere!
ReplyDeleteI have also received some nice emails regarding how my small words somehow touched people's minds and hearts. So that being said, God can do anything with anything/one. So keep doing your thing. Nothing sets people on fire with the Holy Spirit than a young person who is on fire with Christ.
Adelante con Cristo y con Maria!
