Finding My Subplot in God's Story

“And once you live a good story, you get a taste for a kind of meaning in life, and you can't go back to being normal; you can't go back to meaningless scenes stitched together by the forgettable thread of wasted time.”
Donald Miller, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: What I Learned While Editing My Life


"Love does." - Bob Goff

I am being inspired.  I am learning about me... my strengths and weakness.  I've spent time charting both the positive and negative turns in my life and prayed over them, asking God to show me his redemptive purpose in the negative turns.  I starting to become someone who is very aware of my weaknesses but I also am (finally) getting a good grip on a few of my strengths. 
  • I am tenacious
  • I am resourceful
  • I am empathetic
  • I can "rally the troops"
  • While every day minor irritants can throw me, I am very strong and calm in catastrophic/difficult situations
  • Projects energize, inspire and motivate me
