"30 Days with God" Journey

"30 Days with God" Journey
Lately, I have been rediscovering a part of my spiritual journey that was shaky at best for the past several years. 

It's been an amazing awakening of sorts as I sift through thoughts, emotions, interactions, new discoveries and literal miracles. For many years leading up 'til now, this part of my journey had been difficult as I managed to somehow hold on to faith while also challenging every part of it. 

In recent weeks, I've discovered a whole new way of viewing God, scripture, others, myself, creation and our purpose in all of it. It wasn't anything all that earth shattering or new, but it has left a pretty big impression. 

As I woke up this morning, the idea came to me to do a 30-day journey with God and see where it goes. While I feel like it has already started in some ways, I am officially starting it April 1st, since coincidentally, there are 30 days in that month. 

Each day, I plan to intentionally include these 3 things: 

Prayer
A Scripture of some kind
Kindness toward others

I will do my best to recap here each night on my blog. 

I'd love to invite anyone into this space to follow along, comment, and either actively or silently participate. 

I welcome ANYONE into this journey, but it's most likely going to be a good fit for those who ...

Struggle in their faith
Wonder if God is really there
Doubt a little (or a lot)
Have had faith used as a bludgeoning tool 
Have questions - yes, even difficult ones
Have been ostracized or vilified for asking questions or challenging the church status quo
Feel like faith is important but don't know what you really believe or where to begin
Need a space to not feel judged
Need support in their journey
Are wondering who they were created to be

I don't propose to have all the answers, but I will commit to walking this journey openly and alongside you as we navigate and discover new perspectives and truths we may not yet fully know. 

If you're here for it, drop a comment and let me know.
