It's Five Minute Friday. Lisa-Jo gives us one word each Friday and we get to write on it for five minutes flat. The word for today is OPPORTUNITY.
GO:
We are each given the same amount of hours in a day. What we choose to do with them is up to each one of us.
When I think of opportunity, I think of 'where the rubber meets the road'. It's the time to get to work.
Maybe it's a time to get going on the goals we set. Remember those New Year's resolutions? Or maybe you choose a One Word for 2013. Just maybe it's your attitude that needs an opportunity to change. Or maybe this is the year when you are no longer going to allow worry to be something that controls your life.
Don't miss the opportunities that you have today. I for one do not want to get to the end of my life and have regrets. Opportunities missed because I was simply too lazy or fearful or ...
We all have excuses that rationalize why we don't take an opportunity. But in hindsight are there ones you missed? Maybe you were afraid to step out of your comfort zone?
I can identify with that last one. And this year is going to be different.
STOP:
Blessings and love,

- I choose to seize the opportunity to live consistent with my beliefs.
- I choose to be open to what the Lord has for me this year.
- I choose to believe that God hears my prayers.
- I choose to live each day as a new beginning.
