For the next 100 days...
Kara Powell | Jun 7, 2011
I enjoyed reading through this list of 60 small ways to improve your life in the next 100 days. My personal favorite was:
59. For the next 100 days, place the best possible interpretation on the actions of others.
Part of why I appreciated this list is because the start of summer is a logical time to stop and evaluate and think about what we wish was different about our lives, at least for the next 3 months. In fact, the focus of our small group this past weekend was our goals for the summer.
In your life or ministry, what are you planning to do differently this summer?
