Powerful Questions

Heather emailed me a link to 99 Powerful Questions a long time ago and I'm just now getting around to answering them. I seem to need some motivation to get me reflecting... and blogging....


1. What do I want?

Out of life? I want to be content regardless of my circumstances. I want to bear fruit. I want to please God with how I live my life. I want to love better.

2. What am I grateful for?

My incredible husband who was made for me by God who loves me! My adorable son. Family. Friends who get me. My needs being met.

3. What’s missing in my life?

A workplace that makes me WANT to get out of bed and leave my family for a lil bit everyday. An easier way to see the important people in my life OFTEN.

4. Do I see the whole world anew each day?

Anew? Not like I should. Mercies are new every morning and too often I take that for granted.

5. Do I take the time to really listen to what others say?

I think I listen really well to people... I can tune into what they really mean even if they don't come out and say it. I need to learn to listen to G o d. I do far too much talking, wishing, whining....

6. Do I have fun?

YES! My mom laughs at me because she never knows what will come out of her mouth when I tell her what I've been up to.... from "I just went to the roller derby" to "I'm taking pole dancing lessons" to "I just went geocaching/treasure hunting around town" to "I built a fort with sofa cushions with Caleb and Brett". I love to laugh. I love to try things unexpected. Bring on the fun!

7. How can I bring more joy into my life?

I think joy will come into my life when I become more PRESENT. In this moment. Live right now.

What do you think?

  1. The fun thing? That is one of my favorite things about you too. I wish I was more like you. I was so sad when I couldn't make the NKOTB adventure happen. One day, money will not be so difficult. One day. In the meantime, I keep hoping you will get a wild hare and jet set to Tupelo and do the Elvis Tour. ;)
