And Again…
So… it’s been over 365 days since I started this blog. And how the Lord showed up!
Each year, I ask the Lord for a word for the year – something that will be the “theme” of what He has in store for us. Last year, it was “hear.” I had three people pray that I would hear Him more clearly – and this blog began as part of that journey.
This year, He keeps bring the word “taste.” Taste and see that the Lord is good. (Ps. 34). Experience. Up close and personal. Fully know. Take in. All senses fully engaged. (Ever notice that you can’t taste something without also smelling it? Feeling the texture? Hearing the crunch? Seeing what you’re about to eat?)
So 365 God Sightings is going to be more like 365 God Tastings. Some of the entries may be conversations the Lord and I have. Or I may share from what I’ve been reading. We’ll see where it goes. I’m seeing this like a progressive dinner. Can’t wait to see what’s on the menu for 2011!
Just to whet your appetite, here’s a link where you can download Graham Cooke’s sermon, “Living from a Place of Dreaming.” This has me completely excited about the possibilities for this year… it’s all about the freedom to ask God for things, and go beyond “logic” and into dreaming creatively with Him. Very cool idea…
(Or you can listen to “God is the Kindest Person I’ve Ever Met.” Also an excellent message.)
