In making decisions currently, I have not asked where I am to be or what I am to do, but what it is that God is calling me to become. (p. 103, The Critical Journey: Stages in the Life of Faith)

Today’s blog and the following one will be based on thoughts from this book I’m finishing:

This quote resonated with me because it’s a question I’ve wandered in and out of over the past decade. It seems, as we go through stages/seasons of life, this would be a great question to keep in front of us. It’s very possible that the answer will change as we journey and grow.

So here is what I wrote in my journal on March 8 to answer the question, What is God Calling Me to Become:

• A lover of all people
• A helper to the wanderer
• A friend to my colleagues
• A present dweller
• A faster forgiver
• A questioner rather than a teller
• A relaxed worker
• A Spirit listener
• A dependent child
• A contented kingdom dweller
