My pencil flew out of my hand as the teacher continued to lecture at the front of the room. I watched the pencil swoop to the floor and roll over the carpet toward another student's desk. My worst nightmare. I couldn't stop taking notes. I would fail the next quiz. I couldn't ask the person next to me to hand the pencil to me. I would have to talk to someone I hardly knew. Oh, the agony! After a few minutes, I finally asked the kid next to me to hand me my pencil, and after a few years, I finally learned some social skills. Still, boldness has never come naturally to me. Perhaps this timidity is what drew me to Proverbs 28:1: "The wicked flee when nobody pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion." Drawing a lion free-hand was a bold move in itself, but I'd like to make a few more bold goals for the upcoming school year.
1. Begin a Bible Art Journaling group of some sort.
2. Get at least 3 spiritual articles published in various magazines.
3. Lose 35 pounds (31 now -- woot woot).
4. Make a new friend.
5. Find a photography client.
What bold dreams does God have for you?
