But expresses exactly how I feel about my word, Hope; peeling away pre-conceived ideas, to get to what God has for me within.

it was fascinating to see some of your process as you dig into your word. I’ll be taking some of these questions as cues for myself over the coming months. Thank you for sharing.

It was for people who had a co-dependent personality. One of the things the group talked about one night was the peeling of an onion. Strange thing, no one mentioned the tears that a person might shed because of looking at the ‘stuff’ we could uncover.

I’m finding that my own tiny, two-letter word is also requiring some work. And it’s barging into the way I read scripture!

Your phrase is so rich…you’ll have lots to unravel as the year goes on. You definitely don’t bore me with these “ramblings”, Jean! 🙂

Yes that word is slowly unfolding for me. I wouldn’t have guess this earlier in the year.

I find this practice so good t o dig deep into these words of the year. Once I start I really go off on rabbit trails. LOL

Thank you for sharing Linda. I know sometimes taking off the layers pulls and hurts but ooo whaat treasure we find!

So much in life is so deep and complex and I can only absorb, well, one layer at a time. As always your questions are soul-deep and wonderfully prompting. I’m blessed to have you in my life. God uses your work to draw me deeper in my relationship with Him.

I’m happy to share your work over at my place this week. Thank you for speaking for the deeper life with Christ.

Bless you, spiritual mentor.
