WELCOME!

Hello and welcome to the first blog post here on 8-Bit Manna. This first post is going to be incredibly lackluster, but hopefully I'll make up for that with future posts. For the time being, I am mostly just trying to get this site set up and figure out how I'm going to go about it, but soon I should be posting relatively regular blog entries. I'd like to get more cutesy 8-bit designs up, but it's hard to come across decent royalty-free designs, especially those related to the Bible...whoops. Hopefully we'll fancy this place up soon.
​I pray this blog is beneficial to any fellow Christians out there that might stumble upon it, and that it would encourage any nonbelieving friends to seek God. My ultimate purpose with this site is to help young Christians, and perhaps even older ones if they find the things I share useful. The blog entries will most likely all be topical, and about the trials and troubles I've endured as a young Christian myself, but the main point of it all is Christ. The last thing I want is this blog to be about me. I will be talking about my experiences as a Christian yes, but my goal is to point to Jesus, and not myself, and I hope that is what you get out of it. I want you to focus on God, and what He's done in my life, rather than what I do. Any growth or change I have experienced over the years is because of God and the work He is doing in me, NOT what I do myself. I've tried doing things myself and believe me, that was a mistake! God is the only One who can truly bring about real change in our lives. 
So if I ever come off as self-sufficient or anything like that, forgive me, it is not at all my intention. I want this website, and all of these blog posts to be big glamorous-neon-flashing signs that point upwards to God and the wonders He has done. This isn't about me. It's about God, and helping YOU know Him and walk out your Christian faith.
Life is incredibly busy at the moment, but I hope to make the first real blog entry soon. Stay tuned!
