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!

Course corrections

It’s a sports metaphor, if you consider golf a sport (apologies to golfers!), and yet, it totally works!  Something that seems like it’s not a big deal right now may, in fact, become a big deal later on in my life. 

It’s interesting to me that what directs my metaphorical golf swing isn’t how much faith I have or any of the things I do.  It’s how accurate my belief in God is, which hinges on how well I know His word.  That’s a relief!  It’s something within my immediate control. 

And as many years as I’ve been learning, there’s always more – it’s a joy to get to know God and His word better and better.  If it keeps me out of the rough, all the better!  Now, if I could just figure out how to get past the windmill…

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.
