Some questions I’m mulling over today…
- What’s been good about this last year that I want to continue with?
- What needs to go?
- What needs tweaking? Major tweaks or minor?
- What do I want to accomplish in this next year?
- What do I want to be?
To be honest, I’ve been happy with where I am. It’s been a year for sinking my roots deeper in Christ. Not because things are going so bad that I run to Him desperate for rescue, but because I’m going to Him just to be with Him, to soak in Him.
I have a feeling that another round of change is coming for me. Things that were removed for a time might be back in my life, but in a different way than they were before.
Interestingly enough, the question that has me most curious about and interested in is the last one. What do I want to be? Not do, be.
Sure, birthdays are for celebrating, but they’re also a good time to stop and inventory life. A time to contemplate some of the deeper things that I tend to shy away from.
So tell me, do you know what you want to be?
What I most want to be is content, and in His will - though, of course, I don't always act like those are my top priorities. Praying I get better with that over the next year.
ReplyDeletePraying you are enjoying your special day. Is that pic from a visit to Cheryl? Just curious. Eat cake! Drink Kool Aid! Hug a monkey! Check the mailbox!
Oh...contentment is a such a biggie!! We were studying that this last summer. (excellent study!)
DeleteYes, that picture is from Puerto Rico when I visited Cheryl. Pirate's Cove, a place that really captured my imagination. =]
