31 Questions to Stir Your Soul

by Karmen |

IT’S OCTOBER!

 

You know what that means,  right?

 

WOOHOO! It’s time to join The Nester and a blue jillion others bloggers for a 31 day writing SERIES~

 

Last year I tried my darndest to make all 31 days of influential People,

 

I think I made 19..

 

Thankfully, everyday’s a new day, yes?

 

Yes.

 

This year instead of 31 how-tos, 31 DIY ideas or 31 people, places or things

 

We’re going to consider

31questions

 

Not me, WE….we’re gonna use this white space to strengthen this community

 

to talk.

 

A question answer, ebb and flow

 

YOU are HALF of this…..  

 

How will this work?  What will it look like?  Sound like?

 

That, will greatly depend on YOU, my friends.

 

How willing and engaged YOU choose to be here, in this place.

 

The plan:

  • I’ll post a question a day
  • YOU will share your thoughts or response to the said question in the COMMENT SECTION or your favorite social media outlet…(please keep all public comments RATED-G, thank you kindly)
  • The following day I will share a brief snippet or thought on the question from the previous day
  • Repeat…

You follow?

Just so you know, this won’t be nearly as much fun if you don’t play along!

INVITE A FRIEND!

BE BRAVE!

Remember this blog is all about REAL STORES about REAL LIFE…

So let’s do this….

Oh, and yes, I am aware that today is the second day of October which would technically mean that I’m already behind a day except that I’m not because today I’ve got two for you:

1.  Are you with me?  Are you in?  (And no, reading without commenting, that’s like half in…..BE ALL IN!)

 

COMMENT, ok?

 

and finally, today’s question

 

2.  WHAT CHANGES LIVES?

Gosh, this is going to be fun!  I can hardly wait to hear your responses.

Love y’all,

karmen

    Talk about a question… That’s a doozy! For me I have had a few “life changing” moments but then again, I’m old! Lol

    Old beliefs that are part of our lives change and it brings a whole new perspective to what we thought was “etched” in stone. A mundane life becomes eager to learn something that was new but old. I grew up “in church” as we say but it was not my experience to talk to God. I said prayers, stood up, sat down, kneeled, but never talked to God. Never knew that was actually possible. Imagine my astonishment when that door opened. I went from never having a conversation to never shutting up…. By the way, I still never shut up. I found prayer is life changing… It has incredible power but it also gives immediate peace. Yep, I’d say IT CHANGES LIVES!

Choose joy it’s sound simple enough but up unti Choose joy

it’s sound simple enough but up until the last few days it’s been a real struggle for me

our current season of parenting has had me in a hard place & I’ve allowed the enemy to cause me to tap out of a lot of things but mostly joy

but a few days ago I decided to start believing the things I say and believe for others 

with Jesus we win

He’s it-
 & in Him IT IS FINISHED 

all of it

because 
Jesus.

He overcame & one day we will too!

 in Him we can BE+SAY & do BOLD THINGS because of who He is ❤️ 

have a joyFUL day, friends
