Anyone else ever wonder, “What if … ?”
Like, “What if there really was a laundry fairy?”
Or, “What if I had a whole day to myself {and no guilt about it!}?”
Or maybe, “What if there was a way to have my to do list completed?”
For the next few weeks, we’re going to look at some what if’s. And unlike the whole to do list being completed thing … these are going to be what if’s we can actually manage. In fact, these are the sort of what if’s that can have a meaningful impact in every area of our lives.
But, I need to tell you up front: it won’t all be easy. In fact, if you’re at all like me {read: control freak, perfectionist, Type A}, some of these will be harder than getting caught up on laundry after a week of the stomach virus.
From now through the end of June, we’ll spend Tuesdays and Thursdays exploring 10 ways to live well in today’s world. Each post will ask a what if question and then provide practical ideas for us to apply a biblical truth.

I “live” but definitely wouldn’t qualify it as living well. I constantly feel as if I’m forgetting something important. Or SOMEONE! I’m fairly certain that I feel this way because of a traumatic brain injury that I experienced in November of 2006. Despite the challenges, I KNOW that God desires that I live in freedom. Freedom from fear. Freedom from guilt. Freedom from my painful human-ness. I look forward to listening to Him on this journey!
