Today I asked this powerful question in a leadership class I am teaching to juniors and seniors.

As much as teens may benefit from answering this question the reality is this an important question all of us would benefit from reflecting on.

I invite you to join me to…

pause. breathe. pray.

Make we take time to consider what our daily practices are and where they are leading us. May we be honest with ourselves as we answer this question. There are many practices that may seem harmless yet are actually ones that are leading us away from who we were made to be. May we consider if our practices fueling us or depleting us. Are they growing us or inhibiting our growth?

As we reflect on this question, may we commit moving forward to choosing at least one practice that includes deepening our relationship with God. For when we do this one practice, we will find ourselves becoming who God made us to be.

With love and hope,

Shawn
