5 minute Friday is back with an Opportunity to write …

04 Jan

let’s do this thing … Let’s write.

Set your timer, clear your head, for five minutes of free writing without worrying about getting it right.

1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking.
2. Link back here and invite others to join in.
3. And then absolutely, no ifs, ands or buts about it, you need to visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Seriously. That is, like, the rule. And the fun. And the heart of this community..

Oh and Ahem, if you would take pity and turn off comment verification, it would make leaving some love on your post that much easier for folks!

OK, are you ready? Please give us your best five minutes on:::

Opportunity … Go!

They say opportunity knocks and all one need do is open that door.

The Word says … seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you. ~ Matthew 7:7

The Door is Open ...

The Door is Open …

Since the beginning of 2013 the Hubs and I have taken hold of the opportunity to spend time each morning with God in prayer …

I’ve added devotional time and readings to my opportunity with Him.

I seek the opportunity in 2013 to draw closer to my God and Father. I’m taking, what has always been available to me, the opportunity to deepen my relationship … to know Jesus more; to make Him an integral part of my day … my life.

It’s funny, in a tragic way, that this opportunity has been a wide open door in my life all my life. That, even as I walked this path of Christianity, I didn’t realize how simple it is to be intimate with my Lord. How a simple prayer and quiet praise, on a sun filled morning (or gray morning), will draw me into His arms in a tangible way …

Wonderfully, in His faithfulness, this opportunity is one never lost …

I encourage you, right now … enter in with quietness and seize this amazing Opportunity! – STOP!

There you have it … my first 5 minutes of 2013 … I’m glad this has begun again and I look forward to the opportunity :) to learn and share with this amazing group of writers. Now, YOU … your turn. Don’t be shy, there is no judgment or comparisons here … just write your heart! :)

Blessings,

    Beautiful- one of the most freeing things in my relationship with Jesus, was realizing how simple it is. Enjoy your journey in 2013.
