“Can you tell me all about the blog leavesofgrace.blogspot.com?” I asked AI.
AI: “It has been in existence since November 24, 2006. The blog owner celebrated its 18th anniversary on November 24, 2024, stating, ‘And just like that, Leaves of Grace is 18 years old! On this same day, I posted my very first blog.’ The owner also mentions in another post that they [the politically correct pronoun AI uses for genders] haven't missed a beat since starting the page in 2006. As of November 2025, the blog has been in existence for approximately 19 years.”
AI explained this blog’s history for me. It got all the facts right, but it could not possibly begin to know what it took me to write every single blog (total of 1976 to date). And by coincidence, the visitors’ number this November is 1.9 million.
All my posts, in laughter or in pain, feeling broken or whole, have been about this verse, "And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace." John 1:16 (KJV)
Through 19 years, untold grace has come in all colors, like leaves that vary through seasons and life stages. I’ve written and continue to write about the seemingly mundane things that many people ignore. I’ve also written about epic events that people celebrate in a big way.
In all, as I skim through every-three-to-four-days posts on my 19th year, I see big changes in my family, circles, clan, community, country, and the world as a whole. But what’s amazing is, the Source of it all, whose love and grace I can never write enough about, remains unchanging,
