Goals

It is the end of January. Usually by this time I have sat down and written my goals for the New Year. This year? Not yet. However, I have been considering three words that I will make my personal motto for 2008: Risk. Run. Rejoice.

RISK: To quote a greeting card I spied the other day- Ever notice that “what the hell” always the right decision?
To rephrase using more religious language, we might say- Attempt that which, without God, would seem utterly impossible. Live a life of courageous faith. Remember John Wimber spelled faith “R-I-S-K”.

RUN: Slowly, steadily, surely….the vision will be fulfilled. Therefore, keep running.

REJOICE: Find moments of joy in each day. Plan celebrations. Be thankful. Laugh. Play. Extend grace. Be open to the ridiculous.
