How Would You Answer?

The other night I met with my spiritual direction group. Are you wondering what that is? We meet once a month for the soul purpose of pursuing God. Our time together usually has some or all of the following elements: Reading of scripture, quietly or together, silence, reflection, sharing and praying. Occasionally we also include other poetic literature and a song or two. Last week in addition to scripture we reflected on the following questions. They were written by Dan Allender and sent out in a Mars Hill Grad School e-mail.

We are nearly a month into this new year, but before the memories of 2008 completely fade, take a look at these questions. What would your answers be? I'd love to hear from you. Post a comment, don't be shy!

Reflections on 2008:
What loss most surprised you?
Whose face brought you the greatest gift of God’s presence?
When did you let yourself laugh to the point of tears?
What small kindness touched you most this year?
What one unfinished desire will you take from 2008 into 2009?
