Thirty

HAPPY MONDAY!

A sermon challenge prompts today’s word-of-the-week…

THIRTY

Our pastor challenged us to pray for our city for 30 days.

The number rattled in my head, and I wonder what choices I’ll make in the next 30 seconds that will change someone’s path for the next 30 years? A decision, a comment, a choice. Saying yes or saying no. Walking toward or walking from.

Do we realize how we spend the next 30 seconds, 30 minutes, or 30 days will guide us toward the next 30 weeks and months and years? That number won’t leave my mind. I guess because so often I’ve failed to realize the importance of what one choice or one month can do to many lives.

Of course, pray for your city for the next 30 days if you can muster that much discipline. But also pray for and pay attention to the next 30 seconds as well. They’re the beginning of the rest of your life.

It’s Monday. Might be a good week to pay attention.

Have a great week!
