June 8th

Today I asked God for adventure.  In response, both preemptively and in post, I was asked to write intros to chapters in Kim's new book.  I don't know if she'll end up using them but I'm doing my best to ask God what to write and paying attention to my purpose in writing to a specific truth.

I also felt like God was prompting me to think about my purpose and legacy.  I think God wants me to write a book.  I'm not entirely certain whether He wants me to write fiction or non fiction but I have one idea that's jumped out first.  

Pam - Grandma is nearing end of life and the family drama around her is awful.
Jenn - Kelly moved back in after the failed relationship.  This is causing more stress for Jenn
Lisa - went to the therapist
Sarah's Dad died, marriage
Kim - health
Aaron - alcoholism
Parents - Friend for mom, teach dad how to deal with stress and worry, church transition
