:: Risk ::

That's "my" word for 2011.

Not a resolution, mind you. I'm not a big fan of feeling like a failure. Just a my own one syllable cheerleader, of sorts.

It will be nearby, ready to pull out when there is decisions to make and steps to take. Keeping it in mind to challenge and inspire me.

A powerful little word to steer my focus and bolster my resolve.

I'm not looking to add reckless stupidity to my life...heaven knows I have plenty of that already. Rather, I desire the word "risk" to nudge me out of my comfort zone, push me beyond my self-inflicted limits, especially when it comes to a certain relationship I have with my Creator and Savior.

He requires radical devotion. Nothing less. Sadly, I've been giving less.

It's time to risk reputation, longings, aspirations, time, energy

mind

body

and soul...for Him.


P.S. This "one word" idea came from Alece over at Grit&Glory :)
