welcome to connect: project 2011

This blog is a project I'm undertaking for 2011... Why don't you join me?

The goal is to spend a little time each day reading from a devotional book, Daily in Christ by Neil T. Anderson, and connecting with people via blog post and comments.

Don't have the book yet? You can find it on Amazon, or you can read the daily post at:
www.crosswalk.com/devotionals/dailyinchrist

Why would we do this? For me, it's to reinforce a habit I need, to own my own faith, to connect with God and what He's saying to me, and to connect with people who are hungry to know God more...

Your reasons might be some of the same as mine.

The more folks read and comment, the richer the experience will be. Join the discussion!

Stuck

Could it be that it’s really that simple?  The areas of my life where I’m stuck and can’t seem to gain any ground are places where I’ve been listening to lies?  Sure, it makes sense when you type out and all, but that’s the whole point of deception, right – that it’s not obvious?

We were talking about the movie What About Bob today, and about people who on the surface are asking for help, but in reality, they are looking for an excuse to stay the way they are.  Funny movie, by the way, but you have to root for Bob if you’re going to enjoy the movie.

Back to the point…  Sometimes, the reason we see things in other people is that we have a little of that quality, good or bad, in our own lives, right?  Maybe I’m a little bit Bob…

My prayer for today is that I would have the humility to see where I need to change, and be motivated to do what the Holy Spirit tells me.  I don’t want to be stuck.

About Me

I've been a teacher, a church administrator, and currently I'm an at-home mommy, which is my most challenging assignment yet. My home church is WellSpring - it's where my heart is, where my family is. I'm so grateful to God for His work in me and the people He's allowed me to share life with.
