3 Words

As Megan and I were driving back from STL on New Years Day I posed the question, "If you could choose 3 words that you would hope describe 2008 for you what would they be?" Here is what I came up with and why...

1. Blossom- By this I mean that I hope to figure out more this year about what I want to do long term. I know that I want to go to seminary, but what I will do with the degree is still unknown. I would also like to see this blog blossom over the year as well.

2. Charity- I use this word in two ways. The first is the idea of charity being Christian love. I would hope that I can say that I loved others well at the end of the year. By charity I also mean that I would like to become more generous both financially and with my time.

3. Deep- I want to develop deeper relationships with God, Megan, and others. I want my life to be deep rather than shallow.

Let's hope this is a blossoming, charity, deep filled year for me!

Hi Robby,
I was reading a little of your blog and it made me think of what 3 words that I would hope to describe this year. I came up with these:
1. Being - Focus on being more like Christ and not getting caught up in just the doing of ministry

2. Deliverance - Overcome some of the things I struggle with

3. Missional - Do the work of God the way He wants me to do it and not be concerned about man's opinion.

When i went to Biblical Seminary, I too wondered what I would do with the degree. I knew I had a passion for teens but did not know what that would translate to as a job. While I was at Biblical, I met so many people and I met this one guy who is now my pastor. It was during these relationships that the Lord was calling me to be a youth pastor. Sometimes we never know what God is tyring to do, however we must position ourselves with God's help, so that we are available for him to use in any capacity.
