Yesterday I promised you that my next post would be more positive and I'm delivering on that promise today. Diving into my core values required examining what stirs up a righteous anger within me and what brings me bliss. To be honest with you, examining what brings me bliss was a bit more difficult to put down on paper than what angers me. Hmm...Wonder what that says about me? This list sparks something within me that I can't explain. Anyway, here's what brings me bliss:
1. Just being with Chris and the kids. There's no greater feeling in the world than being Chris' wife and the mom of the three craziest kids in the world!
2. Singing. Actually music, in general, brings me bliss and fills a place deep within me. Sounds cliche, but I actually "long" for music.
3. Writing and performing monologues. It's almost like preaching, only I get to pretend to be someone else! I can spend hours writing. I just get lost in it.
4. Creatively planning an event or a service to draw others nearer to Christ. What a humbling, yet exciting opportunity.
5. Seeing someone connect with God for the first time. Seeing the look in their eyes when they realize that Christ loves them and wants a relationship with them.
6. Helping someone make a connection (an introduction, a ministry opportunity, a small group, a volunteer opportunity, etc.) at church.
7. Seeing someone take the next step on their spiritual journey.
What brings you bliss?

I can't wait to get my book, Chazown. After I ordered it, I saw it at Family Christian next day. :( I have to admit but fear sounding like a copy-cat my bliss is easily in your top 7. I would say family, speaking, teaching, writing and mentoring women. Creatively planning events for others to experience God in new ways and carrying it out to the end to see hearts and lives touched -- oh my, somebody has to drag me back to the real world. I could go on and on . . . such bliss!
