How would your life change if you created just a small bit of space to encounter God every single day? What would be different about you, your soul, your relationships, your work? If you want to grow spiritually and develop a deeper relationship with God, join 30 Days of Abiding. "He abides in me, and I in him abide him." has been one of my life verses. It's even tattooed in the form of a tree on my wrist. I am compelled by the vision and invitation to abide. Jesus tells us that true fruitfulness in our lives is birthed out of being in intimate relationship with him. Yet I struggle to do that. I often find myself distracted or deviating from my home in Christ, trying to do life on my own meager resources. With the hope of learning to abide, I am committing to 30 Days of Abiding for the month of July, starting on July 1, 2016. For 30 days, I'll be doing the Examen prayer. It is a simple guided prayer of listening and reflection that has really spoken to my soul whenever I've done it. So imagine if I did it for a whole 30 days in a row. Baby steps, right? 30 days, in my mind, is long enough to stretch me, but also a doable length of time. Here's the extra fun part...I'm extending the invitation to you! If you'd like to do the 30 Days of Abiding together with me and others, you are welcome to join in. Do you want to take a practical, intentional step in your spiritual journey with God? Do want to grow along with others, and receive support and encouragement along the way? Go to 30 Days of Abiding for more details on how to participate. I hope you join us! What spiritual rhythm could you practice for 30 days? How do you think your life would change if you encountered God in a small way every single day? Please share in the comments. Want guidance and inspiration for your spiritual journey delivered to your inbox?
