40 Days On Purpose, One Step at a Time....

I remember when I first started teaching in an Episcopal School, during the Lenten season they would give 5 minutes of silence every morning after chapel to reflect, quietly or in writing. I chose at that time to journal, and now almost 20 years later I have developed that simple lesson into what is now my blog, and I have taught and led in a Christian school in India! Wow, go God!


These next 40 days I hope to continue that exercise, reflecting on how I am spending my talents, and what I want to accomplish in the next 20 years, Lord willing.

How about you? Are you willing to take those small seemingly insignificant steps to accomplish what is in your heart? Sometimes big dreams can seem overwhelming, but when we break them down into small steps, with God leading, they can accomplish great things over time.

Are you dreaming big, stepping out in faith to accomplish what God has laid on your heart? Are you willing to get started, today, going in that direction, trusting God to enlighten your path as you grow in him?

I challenge you to take the next 5 mins for 40 days and set aside that quiet time to reflect and think about God, and see the plans he has for you! Jeremiah 29:11. "For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me".  Step out in faith today and see if God won't take you places you never even dreamed of!  Godspeed.....
