For Saturday, December 18: What Now?

We ask to be part of something bigger, something more meaningful.  So opportunities are put in front of us and God asks, "What now?  What will you do now that it's here in front of you?"  Are we sincere in our desire to be part of something more?  Or are we just paying it lip service?  What will we do when confronted with the reality of our desire? 

We too often make the mistake that if it isn't grand enough, if it doesn't touch more than one person, if it isn't going to make even a ripple in the water then it isn't worth it. I beg to differ.  Heck, God begs to differ!  A simple cup of water can make a huge difference in one life and that one life can start a domino effect.  We have NO idea what our one act of kindness - even if it is a Tootsie Roll smile taped on a piece of paper - can and will do in the lives of many. 

What have you asked to be a part of?  Has it been placed in front of you? Well, then what now? 

What Now?

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
