I wanted to share this with you,
This Lenten challenge that is rocking my world.
You can read about it here and here.
If you'd like to participate, here are the basic guidelines:
"[H]ere's my Lenten goal,
Not really a fast, but a refocusing:
- To count a minimum of 10 reasons - 10 God-centric reasons - each and every day during this season to worship God, including (but not necessarily limited to) aspects of His character and displays of His power.
- To find one Scripture reference for each reason so that I know I'm not just making this up, making sure that the Scripture supports the reason when taken in context.
- To let this exercise bring me closer to God, that I might know Him better and know Him for who He is, that I might worship the God of the Bible, not some idol I've formed in my mind through the things I've heard and my own misconceptions."

Oh, thank you, Laurie! We really do serve an awesome God - all praise and glory and honor to Him! I'm so glad that God has blessed you through my imperfect words . . . and thank you for following the occasional ramblings we share here. It's such a blessing! Also, though I do post over here along with many others who have good, true words to say, I tend to blog more often on my own site (http://maryschieferstein.blogspot.com/). Just wanted to let you know. God bless you!
Wow very good! I am so blessed you commented on my blog so I found yours, I love this, and it seems pretty transparent to me. Thank you for the encouragement and prayers!
Thanks for calling this to our attention. It is indeed a wonderful way to rejoice in God's word.
Oh, thank you, Tesha, but it's all Him - His work in me, not anything of my own hands. I do try to be transparent in my blogging - it's in real life that I tend to have more of a problem :). It's my pleasure to do whatever I can to encourage and support you, so I am happy to pray for you in this time. God bless you!
Thank you, Galen! It's all Him, all Him. And, yes, it's wonderful! So, so wonderful!
