A friend of mine chooses (through much thought and prayer) a word for each year. This word embodies something that she feels called to be or to do, and I love seeing her work toward it throughout the year.
This year she challenged others to do the same. After much prayer and consideration, I feel like my "word" for this year is: CONNECT.
2011 is starting off insanely, and is already set to be a big year in our lives. The new campus is set to launch here in a few weeks, Carson will start Kindergarten, my business will shift from part time to full, and so on...
I have to admit, that my natural tendency -- especially when things get crazy -- is to draw in to myself. While my comfort in doing my own thing can be a real benefit at times, it can also be a really bad thing. It can cause me to miss out on important relationships, opportunities, business, and more. And I don't want that. Good things happen when I make the effort to connect to others, and I believe that this year, more than ever, God is asking me to step outside my comfort zone and connect more deeply with those around me.
